< Jonas 1 >

1 Pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a Jonas, fis a Amitthaï a. Li te di:
and to be word LORD to(wards) Jonah son: child Amittai to/for to say
2 “Leve, ale Ninive, gran vil la, e kriye kont li, paske mechanste yo monte devan Mwen.”
to arise: rise to go: went to(wards) Nineveh [the] city [the] great: large and to call: call out upon her for to ascend: rise distress: evil their to/for face: before my
3 Men Jonas te leve al kacheTarsis pou kite prezans SENYÈ a. Konsa, li te desann Joppa, e li te jwenn yon bato ki t ap prale Tarsis. Li te peye frè a, e te desann ladann pou ale avèk yo Tarsis pou l envite prezans SENYÈ a.
and to arise: rise Jonah to/for to flee Tarshish [to] from to/for face LORD and to go down Joppa and to find fleet to come (in): come Tarshish and to give: pay wages her and to go down in/on/with her to/for to come (in): come with them Tarshish [to] from to/for face LORD
4 Men SENYÈ a te lanse yon gwo van sou lanmè a. Te gen yon gwo tanpèt sou lanmè a jiskaske bato a te prèt pou kraze nèt.
and LORD to cast spirit: breath great: large to(wards) [the] sea and to be tempest great: large in/on/with sea and [the] fleet to devise: devise to/for to break
5 Answit, ouvriye bato yo te vin pè e yo chak te kriye a pwòp dye pa yo. Yo te vide chaj ki te nan bato a nan lanmè a pou te fè l pi lejè. Men Jonas te ale anba nan fon bato a, epi kote li te kouche a, li te tonbe dòmi.
and to fear [the] mariner and to cry out man: anyone to(wards) God his and to cast [obj] [the] article/utensil which in/on/with fleet to(wards) [the] sea to/for to lighten from upon them and Jonah to go down to(wards) flank [the] ship and to lie down: lay down and to sleep
6 Konsa, kapitèn bato a te pwoche li e te di: “Kòman fè w ap dòmi an? Leve rele dye pa ou a. Petèt dye ou a va fè pa nou pou nou pa peri.”
and to present: come to(wards) him chief [the] pilot and to say to/for him what? to/for you to sleep to arise: rise to call: call to to(wards) God your perhaps to think [the] God to/for us and not to perish
7 Chak mesye yo te di a konparèy yo: “Vini, annou fè tiraj osò pou nou ka konprann sou kont kilès gwo malè sa a rive nou an.” Yo te fè tiraj osò a, e sò a te tonbe sou Jonas.
and to say man: anyone to(wards) neighbor his to go: come! and to fall: allot allotted and to know in/on/with which/that to/for who? [the] distress: evil [the] this to/for us and to fall: allot allotted and to fall: allot [the] allotted upon Jonah
8 Konsa yo te di li: “Pale nou koulye a! Sou kont a kilès malè sa a rive nou an? Ki metye ou? Epi ki kote ou sòti? Ki peyi ou? Nan ki pèp ou sòti?”
and to say to(wards) him to tell [emph?] please to/for us in/on/with in which to/for who? [the] distress: evil [the] this to/for us what? work your and from where? to come (in): come what? land: country/planet your and where? from this people you(m. s.)
9 Li te di yo: “Mwen se yon Ebre, e mwen gen lakrent pou SENYÈ Bondye syèl la, ki te fè lanmè a ak tè sèch la.”
and to say to(wards) them Hebrew I and [obj] LORD God [the] heaven I afraid which to make [obj] [the] sea and [obj] [the] dry land
10 Pou sa a, mesye yo te vin pè anpil e yo te di li: “Kisa ou te fè la?” Paske mesye yo te deja konprann ke li t ap sove ale sòti kite prezans a SENYÈ a, akoz sa li te di yo.
and to fear [the] human fear great: large and to say to(wards) him what? this to make: do for to know [the] human for from to/for face LORD he/she/it to flee for to tell to/for them
11 Konsa, yo te di l: “Kisa pou nou ta fè ou pou lanmè a vin kalm pou nou?” Paske lanmè a t ap vin pi move plis toujou.
and to say to(wards) him what? to make: do to/for you and be quiet [the] sea from upon us for [the] sea to go: continue and to rage
12 Li te di yo: “Leve mwen, jete m nan lanmè a. Konsa, lanmè va vin kalm pou nou; paske mwen konnen ke se akoz mwen menm ke gwo tanpèt sa a rive sou nou.”
and to say to(wards) them to lift: raise me and to cast me to(wards) [the] sea and be quiet [the] sea from upon you for to know I for in/on/with which/that to/for me [the] tempest [the] great: large [the] this upon you
13 Sepandan, mesye yo te bouje zaviwon yo fò pou yo ta ka rive atè, men yo pa t kapab, paske lanmè te vin pi move kont yo.
and to dig [the] human to/for to return: return to(wards) [the] dry land and not be able for [the] sea to go: continue and to rage upon them
14 Pou sa a, yo te rele SENYÈ a e te di: “O SENYÈ, pa kite nou peri sou kont a nonm sila a, ni pa mete san inosan sou nou; paske Ou menm, O SENYÈ, Ou fè sa ki fè Ou plezi.”
and to call: call to to(wards) LORD and to say Please! LORD not please to perish in/on/with soul: life [the] man [the] this and not to give: put upon us blood innocent for you(m. s.) LORD like/as as which to delight in to make: do
15 Konsa, yo te leve Jonas, yo te voye li nan lanmè a, e lanmè te vin sispann anraje.
and to lift: raise [obj] Jonah and to cast him to(wards) [the] sea and to stand: stand [the] sea from rage his
16 Epi mesye yo te vin krent SENYÈ a anpil. Yo te ofri yon sakrifis a SENYÈ a e te fè ve yo a Li menm.
and to fear: revere [the] human fear great: large [obj] LORD and to sacrifice sacrifice to/for LORD and to vow vow
17 Epi SENYÈ a te chwazi yon gwo pwason pou vale Jonas, e Jonas te nan vant pwason a pandan twa jou ak twa nwit.
and to count LORD fish great: large to/for to swallow up [obj] Jonah and to be Jonah in/on/with belly [the] fish three day and three night
