1 Jona'a nozamemofo arimpafinti, Ra Anumzana agra'a Anumzamofontega nunamu hu'ne.
Akiwa ndani ya tumbo la nyangumi, Yona alimwomba Bwana Mungu wake.
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)
Akasema: “Katika shida yangu nalimwita Bwana, naye akanijibu. Kutoka kina cha kaburi niliomba msaada, nawe ukasikiliza kilio changu. (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.
Ulinitupa kwenye kilindi, ndani kabisa ya moyo wa bahari, mikondo ya maji ilinizunguka, mawimbi yako yote na viwimbi vilipita juu yangu.
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.
Nikasema, ‘Nimefukuziwa mbali na uso wako, hata hivyo nitatazama tena kuelekea Hekalu lako takatifu.’
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.
Maji yaliyonimeza yalinitisha, kilindi kilinizunguka; mwani ulijisokota kichwani pangu.
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.
Nilizama chini sana mpaka pande za mwisho za milima, makomeo ya hiyo nchi yalinifungia hata milele. Lakini uliuleta uhai wangu kutoka shimoni, Ee Bwana Mungu wangu.
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.
“Wakati uhai wangu ulipokuwa unatoka, nilikukumbuka wewe, Bwana, nayo maombi yangu yalikufikia wewe, katika Hekalu lako takatifu.
8 Knare osuno havi anumzante mono hunentaza vahe'mo'za, Anumzamofo asunku'zana zamagra erigaragi, zamagena hunemize.
“Wale watu wanaongʼangʼana na sanamu zisizofaa hupoteza neema ile ambayo ingekuwa yao.
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.
Lakini mimi, kwa wimbo wa shukrani, nitakutolea dhabihu. Lile nililowekea nadhiri nitalitimiza. Wokovu watoka kwa Bwana.”
10 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a nozamea huntegeno ke'a zafa huno, Jonana hageri ankenare hagage kahepante amu ome atitre'ne.
Basi Bwana akamwamuru yule nyangumi, naye akamtapika Yona katika nchi kavu.
