< Yona 3 >
1 Yawe alobaki na Yona na mbala ya mibale:
Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee yeroo lammaffaa gara Yoonaas dhufe:
2 — Telema, kende na Ninive, engumba monene, mpe sakola kuna maloba oyo nakopesa yo.
“Gara Nanawwee magaalaa guddittii sanaa dhaqiitii ergaa ani sitti himu kana itti lallabi.”
3 Yona atosaki Liloba na Yawe; atelemaki mpe akendeki na Ninive. Nzokande Ninive ezalaki engumba moko ya monene na miso ya Nzambe; esengelaki kosala mikolo misato mpo na kosilisa kotambola kati na yango.
Yoonaasis dubbii Waaqayyootiif ajajamee Nanawwee dhaqe. Yeroo sanatti Nanawween magaalaa akka malee guddoo turte; keessa baʼanii darbuufis guyyaa sadii fudhata ture.
4 Yona abandaki mosala na ye, atambolaki mokolo mobimba kati na engumba; azalaki kosakola: — Etikali mikolo tuku minei mpo ete engumba ya Ninive ebebisama nye!
Yoonaas imala guyyaa tokkoo deemuudhaan magaalattiitti gale. Akkana jedhees lallabe: “Nanawween guyyaa afurtama keessatti ni garagalfamti.”
5 Bato ya Ninive bandimelaki Nzambe; bazwaki mokano ya kokila bilei mpe ya kolata basaki, kobanda na oyo aleki na bozwi kino na oyo aleki na bobola.
Warri Nanawwees Waaqatti amanan. Soomas labsanii hundi isaanii xinnaa fi guddaan uffata gaddaa uffatan.
6 Tango sango yango ekomaki epai ya mokonzi ya Ninive, atelemaki longwa na kiti na ye ya bokonzi, alongolaki bilamba na ye ya bokonzi, alataki saki mpe amivandisaki na putulu.
Yommuu oduun kun mooticha Nanawwee gaʼetti inni teessoo isaa irraa kaʼee uffata mootii of irraa baase; wayyaa gaddaas uffatee daaraa keessa taaʼe.
7 Apesaki mitindo ete bapanza sango oyo na Ninive: « Na mitindo ya mokonzi mpe ya bakalaka na ye, Epekisami na bato mpe na bibwele, ezala ngombe, meme to ntaba; epekisami kolia biloko nyonso mpe komela mayi.
Ergasii akkana jedhee Nanawwee keessatti labsii labse: “Ajajni mootichaatii fi qondaaltota isaa kanaa dha: Akka namni yookaan horiin tokko iyyuu, karri loonii yookaan bushaayeen waan tokko iyyuu afaaniin qabu hin eeyyaminaa; akka isaan waa nyaatan yookaan dhugan hin eeyyaminaa.
8 Tika ete bato mpe bibwele balata basaki, babelela Nzambe makasi. Tika ete moko na moko atika nzela na ye ya mabe mpe mobulu oyo ekangami ye na maboko.
Garuu namnis, horiinis wayyaa gaddaa haa uffatan. Namni hundinuu dafee Waaqa isaa haa waammatu. Isaan karaa isaanii hamaa sanaa fi yakka harki isaanii hojjetu irraa haa deebiʼan.
9 Nani ayebi? Tango mosusu Nzambe akobongola makanisi, akolongola kanda mpe akozongisa motema sima mpo ete tokufa te. »
Maaltu beeka? Tarii Waaqni gaabbee garaa nuu laafee dheekkamsa isaa sodaachisaa sana nurraa deebisee, nuus badii oolla taʼaatii.”
10 Tango Nzambe amonaki makambo oyo basalaki mpe ndenge batikaki banzela na bango ya mabe, abongolaki makanisi na Ye mpe atindelaki bango lisusu te etumbu oyo akanaki kopesa bango.
Waaqnis akka isaan waan hamaa irraa deebiʼan hojii isaanii arge; Waaqnis garaa laafeefii balaa isaanitti erguuf yaade sana isaanitti fiduu dhiise.
