UJona 4
1 Kodwa uJona wacaphuka kakhulu wazonda.
Jonah teh a lungphuen, a lungkhuek teh, Oe Cathut nang koe ka kâhei. Kai teh kamamouh ram dawk ka o navah hettelah ka dei toe nahoehmaw. Hat dawk nahoehmaw nang koehoi Tarshish kho lah ka yawng vaw.
2 Wakhuleka kuThixo wathi, “Awu Thixo, kakusikho lokhu yini engakutshoyo ngisesekhaya? Yikho okwangenza ngaphangisa ukubalekela eThashishi. Ngangikwazi ukuthi unguNkulunkulu olomusa lesihawu, ophuza ukuthukuthela njalo ogcwele uthando, uNkulunkulu odedayo ongasoze ehlise ukuhlupheka.
Bawipa nang teh pahrennae hoi lungmakung Cathut lah na o teh, lungsawnae, moi ka pathung han na tie hai pathung laipalah ngaithoumnae lung na tawn tie heh ka panue.
3 Khathesi-ke Thixo, susa ukuphila kwami, ngoba kungcono kimi ukufa kulokuphila.”
Hatdawkvah Cathut kahringnae na lat pouh lawih. Kai teh kahring e hlak ka due doeh ka hawihnawn telah a kâhei.
4 Kodwa uThixo waphendula wathi, “Kambe ubona ulelungelo na lokuthi uzonde?”
Cathut ni, na lungkhuek kawi na maw telah a pacei.
5 UJona waphuma wayahlala endaweni ethile ngempumalanga kwedolobho. Wazenzela khonapho idunjana wahlala emthunzini walo walindela ukubona okwakuzakwenzakala edolobheni lelo.
Jonah ni khopui dawk bangtelah mouh ao han tie hah panue han a ngai dawkvah khopui e alawilah a tâco teh kanîtholah rim a sak teh a tâhlip dawk a tahung.
6 Kwasekusithi uThixo uNkulunkulu wakhulisa isihlahla esilamahlamvu kuJona samenzela umthunzi ekhanda lakhe ukuze ahlaliseke. UJona wathaba kakhulu ngaleli ivini.
Cathut ni Jonah a lungroum nahanelah tuiumkung a ung pouh teh a lû lathueng a yam pouh. Hote akung dawkvah Jonah te a lung akuep poung.
7 Kodwa emathathakusa ngelanga elilandelayo uNkulunkulu wathumela impehlane, eyaphehla isihlahla sacina sibuna.
Atangtho khodai torei teh Cathut ni a patoun e ahri ni tuiumkung thawk a kei pouh teh kawt a kamyai.
8 Kwathi ilanga seliphumile uNkulunkulu wathumela umoya wempumalanga ohaqazayo, ilanga lavutha phezu kwekhanda likaJona waze waqaleka. Wafisa ukufa, wathi, “Kungcono kimi ukuthi ngife kulokuthi ngiphile.”
Amom kanî a tâco torei teh, Cathut ni kâan poung e kahlî kanîtho lahoi a tho sak teh, Jonah e a lû hah a dâw pouh dawkvah, Jonah puenghoi a tawn teh due ngainae lung a tawn. Hatdawkvah, Jonah ni ka due e doeh ka hring e hlak kahawi telah a cairing.
9 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wathi kuJona, “Ulelungelo na lokuthi uzonde ngenxa yesihlahla?” UJona wathi, “Yebo. Ngizonde kakhulu, kuthi kangife.”
Cathut ni hai nang ni tuiumkung kecu dawk na lungkhuek kawi namaw telah a pacei navah, Jonah ni ka due han totouh ka lungkhuek telah atipouh.
10 Kodwa uThixo wathi, “Uyazihlupha ngesihlahla lesi loba ungazange usinakekele loba usikhulise. Lihlume ngobusuku laphinde lafa ngobusuku.
Cathut ni hai nang ni patang khai e nahoeh, a roung nahanelah na khetyawt e nahoeh. Rum touh dawk hoi kapâw ni teh rum touh dawk hoi tang kamyai e tuiumkung hah na pasai maw.
11 Kodwa iNiniva ilabantu abeqa izinkulungwane ezilikhulu elilamatshumi amabili abangehlukanisiyo isandla sabo sokudla kwesenxele, lenkomo ezinengi njalo. Bekungafanelanga yini na ukuthi ngilinqinekele idolobho elikhulu kangaka?”
Kai ni saringnaw ka dei hoeh, avoi arang boehai ka panuek hoeh rae tami 120,000 hlak kapap e Nineveh khopui e taminaw hah ka pasai mahoeh na maw telah atipouh.
