Jona 1
1 Ra Anumzamo'a Amitai nemofo Jonana, amanage huno asami'ne,
Now the word of Yahweh 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 and go to Nineveh, that great city, and speak out against it, because their wickedness has risen 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.
But Jonah got up to run away from the presence of Yahweh and go to Tarshish. He went down to Joppa and found a ship going to Tarshish. So he paid the fare and boarded the ship to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of Yahweh.
4 Ana higeno Ra Anumzamo'a tusi'a zaho ko huntegeno hagerimo emeri kranto kranto nehigeno ana ventemo tagana vazi'za hu'ne.
But Yahweh sent out a great wind on the sea and it became a mighty storm on the sea. Soon it appeared that the ship was going to be broken up.
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.
Then the sailors became very afraid and each man cried out to his own god. They threw the ship's cargo into the sea to lighten it. But Jonah had gone down into the innermost parts of the ship, and he was lying there deeply asleep.
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!
So the captain came to him and said to him, “What are you doing sleeping? Get up! Call upon your god! Maybe your god will notice us and we will 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.
They all said to each other, “Come, let us cast lots, so that we may know who is the cause of this evil that is happening to us.” So they threw lots, and the lot fell to 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.
Then they said to Jonah, “Please tell us who is the cause of this evil that is happening to us. What is your occupation, and where did you come from? What is your country, and from which people are you?”
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.
Jonah said to them, “I am a Hebrew; and I fear Yahweh, the God of heaven, who has 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 Jonah, “What is this that you have done?” For the men knew that he was running away from the presence of Yahweh, 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?
Then they said to Jonah, “What should we do to you so that the sea will calm down for us?” For the sea became more and more violent.
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.
Jonah said to them, “Pick me up and throw me into the sea. Then the sea will be calm for you, for I know that it is because of me that this great storm is happening to 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 them back to the land, but they could not do it because the sea was becoming more and more violent against them.
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.
Therefore they cried out to Yahweh and said, “We beg you, Yahweh, we beg you, do not let us perish on account of this man's life, and do not lay upon us the guilt of his death, because you, Yahweh, have done just as it pleased you.”
15 Anante Jonana asgahu'za hage rimpi matevu'za atrageno, avunema nentea hagerimo'a aru rava ahe'ne.
So they picked up Jonah and threw him into the sea, and the sea stopped raging.
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 Yahweh very much. They offered sacrifices to Yahweh and made vows.
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 Yahweh had prepared a great fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was in the stomach of the fish three days and three nights.
