< Jona 3 >

1 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a mago'ene Jonana anage huno asami'ne,
And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jonah a second time, saying,
2 Mensintfa otinka, tusi'a kumate Ninive vunka, Nagrama kasmisua nanekea vahera ome zamasamio.
'Rise, go unto Nineveh, the great city, and proclaim unto it the proclamation that I am speaking unto thee;'
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 Jonah riseth, and he goeth unto Nineveh, according to the word of Jehovah. And Nineveh hath been a great city before God, a journey of three days.
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 Jonah beginneth to go in to the city a journey of one day, and proclaimeth, and saith, 'Yet forty days — and Nineveh is overturned.'
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 Nineveh believe in God, and proclaim a fast, and put on sackcloth, from their greatest even unto their least,
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.
seeing the word doth come unto the king of Nineveh, and he riseth from his throne, and removeth his honourable robe from off him, and spreadeth out sackcloth, and sitteth on the 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 he crieth and saith in Nineveh by a decree of the king and his great ones, saying, 'Man and beast, herd and flock — let them not taste anything, let them not feed, even water let them not drink;
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.
and cover themselves [with] sackcloth let man and beast, and let them call unto God mightily, and let them turn back each from his evil way, and from the violence that [is] in their hands.
9 Ontahi'none, Anumzamo'a nentahino asuragi ranteno Agra'a rimpa ahe'zana atresigeta ofri manigahune.
Who knoweth? He doth turn back, and God hath repented, and hath turned back from the heat of His anger, and we do 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 seeth their works, that they have turned back from their evil way, and God repenteth of the evil that He spake of doing to them, and he hath not done [it].
