< Jonah 4 >

1 And Jonas was turmentid with greet turment, and was wrooth.
No rĩrĩ, Jona nĩaiguire ũũru mũno na akĩrakara.
2 And he preiede the Lord, and seide, Lord, Y biseche, whether this is not my word, whanne Y was yit in my lond? For this thing Y purposide, for to fle in to Tharsis; for Y woot, that thou, God, art meke and merciful, pacient, and of merciful doyng, and foryyuynge on malice.
Akĩhooya Jehova, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Wee Jehova-rĩ, githĩ ũũ toguo ndoigĩte itoimĩte mũciĩ? Nĩkĩo ndaahiũhaga kũũrĩra Tarishishi. Nĩndoĩ atĩ wee wĩ Mũrungu mũtugi na ũrĩ tha, na ndũhiũhaga kũrakara, na ũiyũrĩtwo nĩ wendani, Ngai ũiguaga tha akericũkwo akaaga gwĩka ũũru.
3 And now, Lord, Y preie, take my soule fro me; for deth is betere to me than lijf.
No rĩrĩ, Wee Jehova, ndagũthaitha ũndute muoyo; nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwagĩrĩire ngue, gũkĩra ndũũre muoyo.”
4 And the Lord seide, Gessist thou, whether thou art wel wrooth?
No Jehova akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩ na kĩhooto o na kĩrĩkũ gĩa gũtũma ũrakare?”
5 And Jonas wente out of the citee, and sat ayens the eest of the citee, and made to hym a schadewyng place there; and sat vndur it in schadewe, til he sai what bifelle to the citee.
Jona akiuma kũu, agĩthiĩ agĩikara thĩ handũ mwena wa irathĩro wa itũũra rĩu inene. Akĩĩakĩra gĩthũnũ hau, agĩikara kĩĩruru-inĩ gĩakĩo, agĩeterera one ũrĩa itũũra rĩu inene rĩgwĩkwo.
6 And the Lord God made redy an yuy, and it stiede vp on the heed of Jonas, that schadewe were on his heed, and kyueride hym; for he hadde trauelid. And Jonas was glad on the yuy, with greet gladnesse.
Nake Jehova Ngai akĩrehe rũũngũ na agĩtũma rũtambe igũrũ rĩa hau Jona aarĩ, nĩguo rũmũhe kĩĩruru, kĩmũhumbĩre atige gũthĩĩnĩka. Nake Jona agĩkenera rũũngũ rũu mũno.
7 And God made redi a worm, in stiyng up of grei dai on the morewe; and it smoot the yuy, and it driede up.
No rĩrĩ, kwarooka gũkĩa mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ, Ngai akĩrehe kĩgunyũ gĩkĩrĩa rũũngũ rũu, nĩ ũndũ ũcio rũkĩhooha.
8 And whanne the sunne was risun, the Lord comaundide to the hoot wynd and brennyng; and the sunne smoot on the heed of Jonas, and he swalide. And he axide to his soule that he schulde die, and seide, It is betere to me for to die, than for to lyue.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa riũa rĩarathire, Ngai akĩrehithia rũhuho ruumĩte na irathĩro rũrĩ na ũrugarĩ mũnene, narĩo riũa rĩgĩcina Jona mũtwe, o nginya akĩringĩka. Akĩĩrirĩria gũkua, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ wega ngue gũkĩra ndũũre muoyo.”
9 And the Lord seide to Jonas, Gessist thou, whether thou art wel wrooth on the yuy? And he seide, Y am wel wrooth, til to the deth.
Nake Ngai akĩũria Jona atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩ na kĩhooto gĩa kũrakara nĩ ũndũ wa rũũngũ rũu?” Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, ndĩ nakĩo; ndakarĩte o ũndũ ingĩkua.”
10 And the Lord seide, Thou art sori on the yuy, in which thou trauelidist not, nether madist that it wexide, which was growun vndur o nyyt, and perischide in o nyyt.
No Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee-rĩ, ũraiguĩra rũũngũ rũrũ tha, o na harĩa ũtarũrutĩire wĩra kana ũgatũma rũkũre. Rũrakũrire na ũtukũ ũmwe, na rũrathira na ũtukũ ũmwe.
11 And schal Y not spare the grete citee Nynyue, in which ben more than sixe score thousynde of men, which witen not what is betwixe her riyt half and left, and many beestis?
No Nineve nĩ kũrĩ na andũ makĩria ma ngiri igana rĩa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ arĩa matangĩkũũrana guoko kwa ũrĩo kana guoko kwa ũmotho, o na ningĩ rĩrĩ na mahiũ maingĩ. Githĩ o na niĩ ndiagĩrĩirwo nĩkũiguĩra tha itũũra rĩu inene?”
