Jonas 4
1 Men sa te fè Jonas pa kontan anpil e li te vin fache.
And it was displeasing to Jonah displeasure great and it burned to him.
2 Li te priye a SENYÈ a. Li te di: “Souple, SENYÈ, èske se pa sa ke m te di lè m te nan pwòp peyi mwen an? Alò, se pou m te evite sa ki fè m te sove ale rive Tarsis. Paske mwen te konnen ke Ou se yon Bondye ki plen gras ak mizerikòd, ki lan nan kòlè, ki ranpli ak lanmou dous, e Ou se Sila ki ralanti selon malè a.
And he prayed to Yahweh and he said I beg you O Yahweh ¿ not [was] this word my until was I on own land my there-fore I did [the] first time to flee Tarshish towards that I knew that you [are] a God gracious and compassionate long of anger and great of covenant loyalty and [who] relents on evil.
3 Alò, pou sa, koulye a, O SENYÈ, souple, pran lavi mwen. Paske lanmò pi bon ke lavi pou mwen.”
And therefore O Yahweh take please life my from me for [is] good death my more than life my.
4 SENYÈ a te di: “Èske ou gen bon rezon pou ou fache a?”
And he said Yahweh ¿ rightly does it burn to you.
5 Epi Jonas te sòti nan vil la e te chita sou kote lès la. La, li te fè yon tonèl pou li menm, e li te chita anba l nan lonbraj jis pou l ta wè sa ki ta rive nan vil la.
And he went out Jonah from the city and he sat from east of the city and he made for himself there a shelter and he sat under it in the shade until that he will see what? will it be in the city.
6 Konsa, SENYÈ Bondye a te chwazi yon plant lyann. Lyann nan te monte grandi sou Jonas pou l ta sèvi kon abri sou tèt li, pou delivre l de mekontantman li an. Epi lyann nan te fè Jonas byen kontan.
And he appointed Yahweh God a plant and it went up - over Jonah to be shade over head his to deliver him from distress his and he rejoiced Jonah on the plant a joy great.
7 Men Bondye te chwazi yon cheni nan granmmaten nan pwochen jou a. Li te atake lyann nan e li te vin fennen.
And he appointed God a worm when came up the dawn to the next day and it attacked the plant and it withered.
8 Lè solèy la te leve, Bondye te chwazi yon van lès byen cho, solèy la te bat tèt Jonas jiskaske li te vin fèb. Konsa, li t ap mande ak tout nanm li, e te di: “Lanmò pi bon ke lavi pou mwen.”
And it was - when arose the sun and he appointed God a wind an east wind hot and it struck the sun on [the] head of Jonah and he became faint and he asked life his to die and he said [is] good death my more than life my.
9 Epi Bondye te di a Jonas: “Èske ou gen bon rezon pou fache akoz lyann nan?” Jonas te reponn: “Mwen gen bon rezon pou m fache, menm jiska lanmò.”
And he said God to Jonah ¿ rightly does it burn to you on the plant and he said rightly it burns to me to death.
10 Konsa, SENYÈ a te di: “Ou te gen konpasyon pou plant sila ke ou pa t fè okenn travay pou li a, ke ou menm pa t fè grandi, ki te vin parèt nan yon nwit e te vin peri nan yon nwit.
And he said Yahweh you you had compassion on the plant which not you had toiled in it and not you had made grow it that a son of a night it was and a son of a night it perished.
11 Èske Mwen pa ta dwe gen konpasyon pou Ninive, gwo vil la, nan sila ki genyen plis ke san-ven-mil moun ki pa konn diferans antre men dwat ak men goch yo ak yon gwo kantite bèt, tou?”
And I not will I have compassion? on Nineveh the city great which there in it [are] many more than two [plus] ten ten thousand person[s] who not he distinguishes between right [hand] his and left his and livestock much.
