4 Ngiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Ndĩ mũingate, ngeherio maitho-inĩ maku; no rĩrĩ, nĩngerorera hekarũ yaku theru hĩndĩ ĩngĩ.’
Na mekaa sɛ, ‘Wɔapam me afiri wʼanim; nanso mede mʼani bɛkyerɛ wʼasɔredan kronkron no bio’
5 Maaĩ macio maandigiicĩirie makenda kũnjũraga, nakuo kũu kũriku gũgaathiũrũrũkĩria; riya rĩa iria-inĩ rĩeohereire mũtwe wakwa.

7 “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa muoyo wakwa wathiraga, nĩndakũririkanire Wee Jehova, namo mahooya makwa magĩkinya o harĩwe, o thĩinĩ wa hekarũ yaku theru.
“Ɛberɛ a me nkwa resene akɔ no, mekaee wo Awurade, na me mpaeɛbɔ foro baa wo nkyɛn, wɔ wʼasɔredan kronkron no mu.
8 “Andũ arĩa mahooyaga mĩhianano ya tũhũ, nĩmoragĩrwo nĩ ũtugi ũrĩa ũngĩkorwo ũrĩ wao.
“Wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho bata ahoni huhuo ho no hwere adom a anka ɛyɛ wɔn dea.

Nanso me, mede ayɛyie nnwom bɛbɔ afɔdeɛ ama wo. Deɛ mahyɛ ho bɔ no, mɛyɛ. Nkwagyeɛ firi Awurade.”
10 Nake Jehova agĩatha thamaki ĩyo nene, nayo ĩgĩtahĩka Jona thĩ nyũmũ.
Na afei, Awurade hyɛɛ apataa no ma ɔfee Yona too asase so.
