Pazuva rokutanga Jona akapinda muguta. Akaparidza achiti, “Kwasara mazuva makumi mana, mushure maizvozvo Ninevhe richaparadzwa.”
5 Abantu b’omu Nineeve ne bakkiriza Katonda, ne balangirira okusiiba ne beesiba ebibukutu, bonna okuva ku asinga ekitiibwa okutuuka ku asembayo okuba owa wansi.
Vanhu veNinevhe vakatenda kuna Mwari. Vakatara nguva yokutsanya, uye vose zvavo, kubva kumukuru mukuru kusvikira kumuduku duku vakapfeka masaga.
6 Amawulire gano bwe gaatuuka ku kabaka w’e Nineeve, n’ayimuka ku ntebe ye ey’obwakabaka, ne yeeyambulamu ekyambalo kye, ne yeesiba ekibukutu, n’atuula mu nfuufu.

8 naye buli muntu n’ekisibo bibikkibwe n’ebibukutu, era bikaabirire nnyo Katonda, era birekeraawo okwonoona n’okukola eby’obukambwe.
