< Jona 3 >
1 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a mago'ene Jonana anage huno asami'ne,
And the word of the Lord came to Jonas the second time, saying,
2 Mensintfa otinka, tusi'a kumate Ninive vunka, Nagrama kasmisua nanekea vahera ome zamasamio.
Rise, go to Nineve, the great city, and preach in it according to the former preaching which I spoke to you of.
3 Anage higeno, Jona'a otino Ra Anumzamo'ma asamia kante anteno Ninive vu'ne. Ninive kumara tusi'a ranku'ma me'negeno ana kumapina tagufa zagegna rukitagi'za mago atuparega kana nevaze.
And Jonas arose, and went to Nineve, as the Lord had spoken. Now Nineve was an exceeding great city, of about three days' journey.
4 Jona'a ana kumapi agafa huno, magoke zagegnafi vuno, agra kezatino anage hu'ne, 40'a zagegna evanigeno Ninive kumamo'a haviza hugahie.
And Jonas began to enter into the city about a day's journey, and he proclaimed, and said, Yet three days, and Nineve shall be overthrown.
5 Anante Ninive vahe'mo'za Anumzamofo kere zamentinti nehu'za, zamagra ne'zana a'o nehu'za, ranteti vuno osite'ma vu'nea vahe'mo'za zamasunku kukena (sek klos) eri hankre'naze. (Mat 12:41, Luk 11:31-32.)
And the men of Nineve believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloths, from the greatest of them to the least of them.
6 Ana nanekemo'ma Ninive kini nete'ma uhanatigeno'a, kini tratetira otiazamo, kini kukena'a atova hutreno, asunku kukena erino antaniteno, ta'nefapi mani'ne.
And the word reached the king of Nineve, and he arose from off his throne, and took off his raiment from him, and put on sackcloth, and sat on ashes.
7 Anante kinine, kagota eri'za naga'ane amage'ma antesaza naneke atrageno ran kumapi vahe'zagare vuno eno higeno, kinimo'a huno magore hunka kagro, zagagafaka'a, atregeno ne'zane, tinena one'tfa hino, huno hu'ne.
And proclamation was made, and it was commanded in Nineve by the king an by his great men, saying, Let not men, or cattle, or oxen, or sheep, taste [any thing], nor feed, nor drink water.
8 Mago mago'moka kasunku kenage eri nehunka, hagi ana zanke hunka zagagafaka'a asunku kukena eri hunto. Kagranena Anumzantega kagu'areti hunka nunamuna nehunka, kumi hu'zane, ha' fra huno vahe azeri haviza hu'zana atreho.
So men and cattle were clothed with sackcloths, and cried earnestly to God; and they turned every one from their evil way, and from the iniquity that was in their hands, saying,
9 Ontahi'none, Anumzamo'a nentahino asuragi ranteno Agra'a rimpa ahe'zana atresigeta ofri manigahune.
Who knows if God will repent, and turn from his fierce anger, and [so] we shall not perish?
10 Kefo avu'ava zama nehaza zama atre'za zamagu'a rukrahe hazageno, Anumzamo'a negeno, Agra asunku huzmanteno zamahe frigahuema hia agu'agesa atre'ne.
And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil ways; and God repented of the evil which he had said he would do to them; and he did [it] not.
