Jona 1
1 Ary tonga tamin’ i Jona, zanak’ i Amitahy, ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
Ko eni, naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siona, ko e foha ʻo ʻAmitai, ʻo pehē,
2 Mitsangàna, mankanesa any Ninive, ilay tanàna lehibe, ary miantsoa ny amin’ ny hamelezana azy, fa tafakatra eto anatrehako ny faharatsiany.
“Tuʻu hake ʻo ʻalu ki Ninive, ʻae kolo lahi ko ia, pea ke kalanga ki ai; he kuo aʻu hake ki hoku ʻao ʻa ʻenau angahala.”
3 Nefa Jona nitsangana handositra ho any Tarsisy mba hiala eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah; ary nidina tany Jopa izy ka nahita sambo hankany Tarsisy, dia nandoa ny karamany ka niondrana taminy hiara-mandeha tamin’ ny tao ho any Tarsisy hiala eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah.
Ka naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Siona ke hola ki Tasisi mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea ne ʻalu hifo ai ki Sopa; pea naʻa ne ʻilo ai ʻae vaka, naʻe te u folau ki Tasisi; ko ia naʻa ne ʻatu ki ai ʻae totongi, ʻo ne ʻalu ai, ko ʻene ʻalu mo kinautolu ki Tasisi, mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
4 Fa Jehovah nahatonga rivotra mahery teny ambonin’ ny ranomasina, dia nanonja mafy ny ranomasina, ka dia efa nila ho vaky ny sambo.
Ka naʻe tuku atu ʻe Sihova ʻae fuʻu matangi ki he tahi, pea naʻe havili ʻaupito ʻi he vaha, pea ko ia naʻe hangē ka maumau ʻae vaka.
5 Dia raiki-tahotra ny matilo, ka samy nitaraina tamin’ ny andriamaniny avy sady nariany tany anaty ranomasina ny zavatra tao an-tsambo mba hampahatony ny loza. Fa Jona kosa efa nidina nankao anaty sambo ka nandry renoky ny torimaso.
Pea naʻe toki manavahē ʻae kau vaka, pea naʻe taki taha tangi ki hono ʻotua, pea naʻe tolo kotoa pē ʻae meʻa ʻi he vaka, koeʻuhi ke maʻamaʻa. Ka kuo ʻalu hifo ʻa Siona ki he kaokao ʻoe vaka; pea naʻa ne tokoto, ʻo mohe maʻu.
6 Dia nankao aminy ny kapitenin-tsambo ka nanao taminy hoe: Endrey ity ianao renoky ny torimaso foana eto! Mitsangàna, ka antsoy ny Andriamanitrao, fa angamba hihevitra antsika Andriamanitra, ka dia tsy ho faty isika.
Ko ia ne haʻu ai kiate ia ʻae ʻeiki vaka ʻo ne pehēange kiate ia, “Ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻo hoʻo pehē, ʻa koe ʻoku mohe? Tuʻu hake, ui ki ho ʻOtua ʻoʻou, heiʻilo ʻe manatuʻi ʻakitautolu ʻe he ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa tau mate.”
7 Ary dia samy nanao tamin’ ny namany hoe izy: Avia isika hanao filokana mba hizahantsika izay mahatonga izao loza izao amintsika. Dia nanao filokana izy, ka Jona no azo.
Pea naʻa nau fepehēʻaki ʻiate kinautolu, “Ko eni ke tau fai ha talotalo, koeʻuhi ke tau ʻilo pe ko hai ia kuo hoko ai ʻae kovi ni kiate kitautolu.” Pea naʻa nau talotalo, pea totonu ʻae talotalo kia Siona.
8 Dia hoy ireo taminy: Masìna ianao, lazao aminay: Noho ny amin’ iza moa no mahatonga izao loza izao amintsika? Inona no raharaha fanaonao? Ary avy taiza ianao? Aiza no taninao? Ary avy amin’ ny firenen’ iza ianao?
Pea naʻa nau pehē ai kiate ia, “ʻOku mau kole kiate koe, fakahā mai pe ko e hā ʻae meʻa kuo hoko ai ʻae kovi ni kiate kitautolu; Ko e hā hoʻo ngāue ʻaʻau? Pea kuo ke haʻu koe mei fē? Ko fē ʻia ho fonua? Pea ʻoku ke ʻoe kakai fē?”
9 Dia hoy izy tamin’ ireo: Hebreo aho; ary Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny lanitra, no ivavahako, dia Izay nanao ny ranomasina sy ny tany maina.
Pea naʻa ne pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Ko e tangata Hepelū au; pea ʻoku ou manavahē kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe langi, ʻaia kuo ne ngaohi ʻae tahi, pea mo e fonua mōmoa.”
10 Dia raiki-tahotra indrindra ny olona ka nanao taminy hoe: Adray izato ataonao izato! Fa fantany fa nandositra hiala eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah izy, satria efa nambarany taminy izany.
Pea naʻe toki tō ai ʻae manavahē lahi ki he kau tangata, mo nau pehē kiate ia. “Ko e hā kuo ke fai ai ʻae meʻa ni?” He naʻe ʻilo ʻe he kau tangata ʻa ʻene hola mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova, he naʻa ne fakahā ia kiate kinautolu.
11 Dia hoy ireo taminy: Hataonay ahoana ary ianao mba hahatony ny ranomasina aminay? Fa mbola nihananonja ihany ny ranomasina.
Ko ia naʻa nau pehē ai kiate ia, “Ko e hā te mau fai kiate koe, koeʻuhi kae laolao ʻae tahi kiate kitautolu?” He naʻe hou ʻae tahi, pea havili lahi.
12 Ary hoy izy tamin’ ireo: Betao aho, ka atsipazo any anatin’ ny ranomasina hahatony ny ranomasina aminareo; fa fantatro fa noho ny amiko no mahatonga izao onja mahery izao aminareo.
Pea ne pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Mou hiki hake au, pea lī au ki tahi; ko ia ia ʻe laolao ai ʻae tahi kiate kimoutolu: he ʻoku ou ʻilo ko au pe ia kuo hoko ai ʻae fuʻu havili ni kiate kimoutolu.”
13 Nefa namaky onja fatratra ny olona mba hamerina ny sambo ho amin’ ny tany maina, fa tsy zakany, satria ny ranomasina mbola nihananonja mafy taminy.
Ka naʻe fekeli mālohi ʻae kau tangata koeʻuhi ke nau lava ki ʻuta: ka naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa fai: he naʻe hou ʻae tahi, pea havili, pea tokai kiate kinautolu.
14 Dia nitaraina tamin’ i Jehovah izy ka nanao hoe: Mifona aminao izahay, Jehovah ô, aoka tsy ho faty izahay noho ny amin’ ny ain’ ity lehilahy ity ary aza atao ho mpandatsaka rà marina izahay; fa Hianao, Jehovah ô, efa nanao izay sitraky ny fonao.
Ko ia naʻa nau tangi ai kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku mau kole kiate koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻoku mau kole kiate koe, ke ʻoua naʻa mau mate, koeʻuhi ko e moʻui ʻae tangata ni; pea ʻoua naʻa tuku kiate kimautolu ʻae toto ʻoe taʻehalaia: he ko koe, ʻE Sihova, kuo ke fai ʻe koe ʻa hoʻo faʻiteliha.”
15 Dia nobetain’ izy ireo Jona ka natsipiny tany anatin’ ny ranomasina; ary dia nitsahatra ny fisafoaky ny ranomasina.
Ko ia ne nau toʻo hake ʻa Siona, pea lī atu ia ki tahi: pea naʻe ngata ai leva ʻae hou ʻae tahi.
16 Dia natahotra an’ i Jehovah indrindra ireo olona ireo ka namono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah sady nivoady.
Pea ne toki manavahē lahi ʻaupito ʻae kau tangata kia Sihova, pea naʻa nau fai ʻae feilaulau kia Sihova, mo nau fai ʻae ngaahi fuakava.
17 Ary Jehovah nanomana hazandrano lehibe hitelina an’ i Jona. Ary Jona dia tao an-kibon’ ilay hazandrano hateloan’ andro sy hateloan’ alina.
Ka ko eni, naʻe teuteu ʻe Sihova ʻae fuʻu ika ke ne folo hifo ʻa Siona. Pea naʻe ʻaho tolu mo pō tolu ʻa Siona ʻi he kete ʻoe ika.
