1 Jona'a nozamemofo arimpafinti, Ra Anumzana agra'a Anumzamofontega nunamu hu'ne.
Ephakathi kwenhlanzi uJona wakhuleka kuThixo uNkulunkulu wakhe.
2 Agra anage hu'ne, Nagra tusi'a hazenkefi mani'ne'na Ra Anumzamofontega hazenke zanimofona asamugeno, Agra ke'ni'a antahinami'ne. Fri vahe'mofo kumapi mani'nena fri'za nehu'na nazama huogu'ma kezatugenka, kagra zavi krafa ke'ni'a antahinami'nane. (Sheol h7585)
Wathi: “Ekuhluphekeni kwami ngambiza uThixo, wangiphendula. Ngisekujuleni kwengcwaba ngacela uncedo, wena wakulalela ukukhala kwami. (Sheol h7585)
3 Kagra nasga hunka ame fenkame hagerimofo agu'afinka natre'nane. Anampina timofo hanavemo nazeri kagigagi hu'ne. Kagra hanave'ane zaho huntankeno haferina eri kranto kranto huno e'nea timo, nagrira nazeri nakrino refite'ne.
Wangiphosela ezinzikini, phakathi emathunjini enlwandle, amagagasi agubhazela emaceleni wonke; wonke amagagasi akho lezimpophoma zawo kwangisibekela.
4 Ana hige'na Kagripintira ko nagrira nahe anati atre'nane hu'na nagra antahi'noe. Kagri ruotge ra mono nonka'a mago'ene onkegahue, hu'na nagesa antahi'noe.
Ngathi, ‘Sengixotshiwe ebusweni bakho; kodwa ngizakhangela njalo ethempelini lakho elingcwele.’
5 Kagigagi huno avune ante'nea timo, nazeri nakrino nanankempi marerige'na ti nakrika ate'noe. Ame fenkame tami'nea timo nazeri kagigeno, Hagerimpi inozamo nanuna eri ano vazi'ne.
Indonga zamanzi zaziqonde ukungimbokotha, ngangihanqwe yinziki; inkunkuma yotshani bolwandle yangithandela ekhanda.
6 Agonamofo agafafi nagra urami'noe. Ana mopamofo agu'afinka rentrako hunantesige'na kina hu'na manivava hugahue hu'na nagesa antahi'noe. Hu'neanagi Kagra Ra Anumzamoka, ana kerifintira naza hunka navare atre'nane.
Ngagalula ngatshona empandeni zezintaba; umhlaba ongaphansi wangivalela okwaphakade. Kodwa wena wayikhupha impilo yami egodini, wena Thixo, Nkulunkulu wami.
7 Navu evuevu hige'na frinaku nehu'na, nagra Ra Anumzamoka nagesa antahi kamugeno, nunamuni'amo ruotge ra mono nonka'afine, Kagrite'ene e'ne.
Lapho impilo yami yayisincipha, ngakhumbula wena, Thixo, umkhuleko wami waphakamela kuwe, ethempelini lakho elingcwele.
8 Knare osuno havi anumzante mono hunentaza vahe'mo'za, Anumzamofo asunku'zana zamagra erigaragi, zamagena hunemize.
Labo ababambelela ezithombeni ezingelamsebenzi balahlekelwa ngumusa ongaba ngowabo.
9 Hianagi Ra Anumzamoka kezati'na kagia erisga nehu'na, nagra zagamepinti Kagritega ofa hugantegahue Ra Anumzanimoka nagrama huvempama hua kea, amage antegahue, na'ankure nazahu hanavea Ra Anumzamoka Kagrake mani'nane.
Kodwa mina, ngizakuthi ngihlabela ingoma yokubonga ngenze umhlatshelo kuwe. Engikufungileyo ngizakugcwalisa. Insindiso ivela kuThixo.”
10 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a nozamea huntegeno ke'a zafa huno, Jonana hageri ankenare hagage kahepante amu ome atitre'ne.
UThixo walaya inhlanzi, yona yase imhlanza uJona emhlabathini owomileyo.
