Jona 1
1 Ra Anumzamo'a Amitai nemofo Jonana, amanage huno asami'ne,
Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah son of Amittai, saying,
2 Otinka tusi'a rankumate Ninive vunka, kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza zankura kezatinka Anumzamo'a keaga huneramante hunka zamasmio. Na'ankure kefo zamavu'zamava'ma hu'nazana hago Nagra ke'noe.
“Get up! Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before Me.”
3 Higeno Ra Anumzamo'ma Jonama hunteno, vuoma hirega ovuno atreno freno Tasisi vunaku agesa nentahino, Jopa uramino Tasisi vuku nehia vente ome kefore huteno, vania zana tafera mizaseteno Ra Anumzamofona atreno freno, afete Tasisi kumate vu'naku ventefi mareri'ne.
Jonah, however, got up to flee to Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD. He went down to Joppa and found a ship bound for Tarshish. So he paid the fare and went aboard to sail for Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD.
4 Ana higeno Ra Anumzamo'a tusi'a zaho ko huntegeno hagerimo emeri kranto kranto nehigeno ana ventemo tagana vazi'za hu'ne.
Then the LORD hurled a great wind upon the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship was in danger of breaking apart.
5 Ana ventefima eri'za e'neriza vahe'mo'za tusi koro nehu'za zamagra anumaza zamire kezankea nehu'za fenoma ventefima me'neana o'za hurantesie hu'za asgahu'za hagerimpi atre'naze. Ana hazanagi, Jona'a ana ventemofo agu'afi fenka uramino avu uvaseno, hinkrafo ante'ne.
The sailors were afraid, and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the ship’s cargo into the sea to lighten the load. But Jonah had gone down to the lowest part of the vessel, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep.
6 Mase'negeno ana vente'ma eneria ne'mo'a agrite uramino, nahigenka kagra kavura mase'nane? Otinka anumzankamofontega nunamuna huo, kagri anumzamo'a tagrikura asunku huranteno taza hanigeta tagra ofrisune!
The captain approached him and said, “How can you sleep? Get up and call upon your God. Perhaps this God will consider us, so that we may not perish.”
7 Ana ventefi eri'za vahe'mo'za ke hugantu kama hu'za, E'nenketa satu zokagora reta ama'na hazenke'mofona aza ugagota hu'nefi kamneno, nehu'za satu zagoma re'za kazana Jona agimo efore hu'ne.
“Come!” said the sailors to one another. “Let us cast lots to find out who is responsible for this calamity that is upon us.” So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah.
8 Ana hute'za Jonana anage huza antahige'naze, Iza hu'nea hazenkere hagerimo'a tagrira tahe refite'zana nehie? Kagra nankna eri'za e'nerina ne' mani'nane? Kagra igati e'nane? Rankuma ka'a igatire? Kagra ina vahepinti fore hunane? Hu'za antahige'naze.
“Tell us now,” they demanded, “who is to blame for this calamity that is upon us? What is your occupation, and where have you come from? What is your country, and who are your people?”
9 Jona'a ke nona huzmanteno anage hu'ne, nagra Hibru nere, monafinka Anumzama hagerine, hagege mopanema tro hu'nea Ra Anumzamofonte nagra monora hunentoe.
“I am a Hebrew,” replied Jonah. “I worship the LORD, the God of the heavens, who made the sea and the dry land.”
10 Anagema hige'za ventema eneriza vahe'mo'za nentahi'za, tusi zamanogu nehu'za, anage hu'za Jonana antahige'naze. Kagra inankna hazenke hu'nane? Na'ankure Jona'ma Anumzamofonkema rutagreno fre'nea kea ana nagara zamasamige'za antahi'nareti hu'naze.
Then the men were even more afraid and said to him, “What have you done?” The men knew that he was fleeing from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them.
11 Hagerimo'a mago'ene tusiza huno kranto kranto huno regazarino avune ante'no e'ne. Hige'za Jonana antahige'naze, Inankna kagrira hugante sunkeno hage rimo'a rurava hegahie?
Now the sea was growing worse and worse, so they said to Jonah, “What must we do to you to calm this sea for us?”
12 Hazageno nagrira nasgahutma hagerimpi matevu natrenkeno, timo'a rurava hino. Nagra hago ke'na antahina nehue, na'ankure nagri hazenke zamofo agofetu hagerimo'a tamagritera avunea nente, huno zamasmi'ne.
“Pick me up,” he answered, “and cast me into the sea, so it may quiet down for you. For I know that I am to blame for this violent storm that has come upon you.”
13 E'inama nehiana netre'za ana vahe'mo'za tusiza hu'za avame ante'za tin ankenare vu'zante maraguzati'naze. Ana hu'nazanagi, amuhara osu'naze. Na'ankure hagerimo'a mago'ane erirankasege'za ankenarega vugara osu'naze.
Nevertheless, the men rowed hard to get back to dry land, but they could not, for the sea was raging against them more and more.
14 Anante Anumzamofo kezatimi'za, Ra Anumzamoka muse (plis) hugantonanki ama ne'ma ahe frisuna zankure hunka tagrira tahe fanane osuo. Ama ke'a omane ne'ma ahe frisuna zankura, tagrira tazerinka keaga huoranto, Kagriku huta amanahura huntegahune, Ra Anumzamoka kavesiniaza Kagra huo.
So they cried out to the LORD: “Please, O LORD, do not let us perish on account of this man’s life! Do not charge us with innocent blood! For You, O LORD, have done as You pleased.”
15 Anante Jonana asgahu'za hage rimpi matevu'za atrageno, avunema nentea hagerimo'a aru rava ahe'ne.
At this, they picked up Jonah and cast him into the sea, and the raging sea grew calm.
16 Anama hiazanku ana vahe'mo'za, Ra Anumzamofona tusi'a koro hunte'za, Kresramana vunente'za, mago'a huvempa kea Agrite hu'naze.
Then the men feared the LORD greatly, and they offered a sacrifice to the LORD and made vows to Him.
17 Ana hazageno Ra Anumzamo'a tusi'a nozame huntegeno Jonana asga huvazigeno, Jona'a nozamemofo rimpafina tagufa zagegi, tagufa kenageki huno mani'ne.
Now the LORD had appointed a great fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah spent three days and three nights in the belly of the fish.
