UJona 2
1 UJona wasekhuleka eNkosini uNkulunkulu wakhe esemathunjini enhlanzi,
Yona wɔ apataa no yam no, ɔbɔɔ Awurade ne Nyankopɔn mpae se,
2 wathi: Ekuhluphekeni kwami ngakhala eNkosini, yangiphendula; ngisesiswini sengcwaba ngamemeza, wena walizwa ilizwi lami. (Sheol h7585)
“Mʼahohia mu mefrɛɛ Awurade, na ogyee me so. Mifi ɔda ase tɔnn srɛɛ mmoa na wutiee me sufrɛ. (Sheol h7585)
3 Ngoba wangiphosela enzikini, enhliziyweni yezinlwandle, lempophoma zangihanqa; wonke amagagasi akho lamavinqo akho kwedlula phezu kwami.
Wotow me kyenee bun mu wɔ po ase tɔnn, na ɔhweam twaa me ho hyiae; wʼasorɔkye ne mframa bu faa me so.
4 Ngasengisithi mina: Ngixotshiwe phambi kobuso bakho; kanti ngizabuya ngikhangele ngasethempelini lakho elingcwele.
Na mekae se, ‘Woapam me afi wʼanim; nanso mede mʼani bɛkyerɛ wʼasɔredan kronkron no bio’
5 Amanzi angihanqile kuze kube semphefumulweni; inziki ingizingelezele; imihlanga yathandela ikhanda lami.
Nsu a abu afa me so no bɔɔ me hu, bun no twaa me ho hyiae; po mu nwura kyekyeree me ti ho.
6 Ngehlela ezisekelweni zezintaba; umhlaba, imigoqo yawo yangihanqa laphakade; kanti wenyuse impilo yami emgodini, Nkosi Nkulunkulu wami.
Memem kɔɔ mmepɔw no ase pɛɛ; asase ase kaa me hyɛɛ mu afebɔɔ. Nanso wugyee me nkwa fii amoa mu, Awurade, me Nyankopɔn.
7 Lapho umphefumulo wami uphela amandla phakathi kwami ngakhumbula iNkosi; lomkhuleko wami wafika kuwe, ethempelini lakho elingcwele.
“Bere a me nkwa resen akɔ no, mekaee wo Awurade, na me mpaebɔ foro baa wo nkyɛn, wɔ wʼasɔredan kronkron no mu.
8 Labo abagcina amanga ayize batshiya umusa wabo.
“Wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho bata ahoni huhuw ho no hwere adom a anka ɛyɛ wɔn de.
9 Kodwa mina ngizakwenza umhlatshelo kuwe ngelizwi lokubonga, ngikhokhe lokho engikufungileyo; usindiso ngolweNkosi.
Nanso me, mede ayeyi nnwom bɛbɔ afɔre ama wo. Nea mahyɛ ho bɔ no, mɛyɛ. Nkwagye fi Awurade.”
10 INkosi yasikhuluma kuyo inhlanzi, yasimhlanza uJona emhlabathini owomileyo.
Na afei, Awurade hyɛɛ apataa no ma ɔfee Yona too asase so.
