< Jona 4 >

1 Hagi Jona'a musena osuno tusi asi vazigeno,
But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry.
2 Ra Anumzamofontega anage huno nunamuna hu'ne, Ra Anumzamoka muse (plis) hugantoe. Ese agafareti nagra ko antahi'noe, Ninivea eri haviza osugahane hu'na kumani'are mani'nena antahi'noe. Antahite'na mopani'a atre'na, Tasisia nagra fre'na vu'noe! Na'ankure, Kagra kasunku nehunka knare kavukva vahera huzmante Anumza mani'nane, agazone hunezmantenka kasunku'zamo avite Anumzankinka, zamazeri haviza hugahue hana vahera anara nosane.
He prayed to Yahweh, and said, “Please, Yahweh, wasn’t this what I said when I was still in my own country? Therefore I hurried to flee to Tarshish, for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and you relent of doing harm.
3 E'izanku nona'a, Ra Anumzamoka nagri menina nahege'na fri'neno. Nagrama omani'na, frisugeno'a knare hugahie.
Therefore now, Yahweh, take, I beg you, my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
4 Ra Anumzamo'a anage hu'ne, knare kegafa me'negenka krimpa nehano?
Yahweh said, “Is it right for you to be angry?”
5 Anage higeno, Jona'a ra kumara atreno zage hanati kaziga via'zamo, zage tonare huno osi no ome kino anampinka mani'neno, inankna'za Ninivea fore hugahie nehuno avu anteno mani'ne.
Then Jonah went out of the city and sat on the east side of the city, and there made himself a booth and sat under it in the shade, until he might see what would become of the city.
6 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a aza huno Jonana anumofo tona huntenogu, nofi traza huntegeno hageno mareri'ne, ana nofi'ma hage'nea zankura Jona'a, tusi'za huno musena hu'ne.
Yahweh God prepared a vine and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shade over his head to deliver him from his discomfort. So Jonah was exceedingly glad because of the vine.
7 Hianagi maseno ko'atigeno nanterampi, Anumzamo'a havigafa huntegeno ana nofira eme ani traga hutregeno, ana nofi'mo'a hagege hu'ne.
But God prepared a worm at dawn the next day, and it chewed on the vine so that it withered.
8 Zagema hanatigeno'a, Anumzamo'a amuho nentake zaho, zage hanati kazigati huntegeno, zagemo'a Jona anuntera tentegeno, avu evu evu higeno Jona'a fri'za nehuno, anage huno kezati'ne, nagrama nagesa antahuana frisugeno'a knare hugahie, kasefa hu'na mani'zankura nave'osie.
When the sun arose, God prepared a sultry east wind; and the sun beat on Jonah’s head, so that he was faint and requested for himself that he might die. He said, “It is better for me to die than to live.”
9 Anante Anumzamo'a Jonana amanage huno asmi'ne, Knare ke agafare nofikura kasia nevazio? Huno antahigegeno Jona'a knare ke agafare nagrira nasivazige'na friku nehue hu'ne.
God said to Jonah, “Is it right for you to be angry about the vine?” He said, “I am right to be angry, even to death.”
10 Higeno Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Eri'za erinka, krinka kegava hu'nana nofiku kagra krimpagna nehano, nofimo'a mago kenage hageteno mago zage knafi fri'ne.
Yahweh said, “You have been concerned for the vine, for which you have not labored, neither made it grow; which came up in a night and perished in a night.
11 Ninive rankumapina 120 tauseni'a agatere'nea vahe mani'nazankiza e'izana tamazanki, havizanki hu'za osugahaz. Afu' kevuzaga rama'a mani'naze. Hianagi, kagrama antahi'nana, Nagra e'i ana rankumakura nagesa nontahuo? Huno asmi'ne.
Shouldn’t I be concerned for Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than one hundred twenty thousand persons who can’t discern between their right hand and their left hand, and also many animals?”
