< Yoonaas 3 >

1 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee yeroo lammaffaa gara Yoonaas dhufe:
Sa’an nan sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa Yunana sau na biyu.
2 “Gara Nanawwee magaalaa guddittii sanaa dhaqiitii ergaa ani sitti himu kana itti lallabi.”
“Tafi babban birnin nan Ninebe, ka yi masa shelar saƙon da na ba ka.”
3 Yoonaasis dubbii Waaqayyootiif ajajamee Nanawwee dhaqe. Yeroo sanatti Nanawween magaalaa akka malee guddoo turte; keessa baʼanii darbuufis guyyaa sadii fudhata ture.
Sai Yunana ya yi biyayya da maganar Ubangiji, ya tafi Ninebe. Ninebe birni ne da yake da muhimmanci, wanda sai an ɗauki kwana uku kafin a iya zaga shi.
4 Yoonaas imala guyyaa tokkoo deemuudhaan magaalattiitti gale. Akkana jedhees lallabe: “Nanawween guyyaa afurtama keessatti ni garagalfamti.”
A rana ta fari, Yunana ya kama tafiya yana ratsa birnin. Sai ya yi shela cewa, “Nan da kwana arba’in za a hallaka Ninebe?”
5 Warri Nanawwees Waaqatti amanan. Soomas labsanii hundi isaanii xinnaa fi guddaan uffata gaddaa uffatan.
Mutanen Ninebe kuwa suka gaskata Allah. Aka yi shela a yi azumi, sai dukansu daga babba har zuwa ƙaraminsu, suka sa tufafin makoki.
6 Yommuu oduun kun mooticha Nanawwee gaʼetti inni teessoo isaa irraa kaʼee uffata mootii of irraa baase; wayyaa gaddaas uffatee daaraa keessa taaʼe.
Da saƙon Yunana ya kai kunnen sarkin Ninebe, sai ya tashi daga kujerar mulkinsa, ya tuɓe alkyabbarsa, ya sa rigar makoki, ya zauna cikin toka.
7 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.
Sai ya yi umarni a Ninebe cewa, “Bisa ga umarnin sarki da fadawansa. “Kada a bar wani mutum ko dabba, garke ko shannu, su ɗanɗana wani abu; kada a bari su ci ko su sha.
8 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.
Bari kowane mutum da dabba yă yafa rigunan makoki. Kowa yă roƙi Allah da gaske, kowa kuma yă bar mugayen ayyukan da yake yi.
9 Maaltu beeka? Tarii Waaqni gaabbee garaa nuu laafee dheekkamsa isaa sodaachisaa sana nurraa deebisee, nuus badii oolla taʼaatii.”
Wa ya sani? Ko Allah zai ji tausayinmu da kuma juyayinmu yă janye zafin fushinsa don kada mu hallaka.”
10 Waaqnis akka isaan waan hamaa irraa deebiʼan hojii isaanii arge; Waaqnis garaa laafeefii balaa isaanitti erguuf yaade sana isaanitti fiduu dhiise.
Da Allah ya ga abin da suka yi, da kuma yadda suka juya daga mugayen hanyoyinsu sai ya ji tausayinsu, bai kawo hallaka a kansu yadda ya yi shirin yi ba.
