1 И опечалися Иона печалию великою и смутися,
And it was displeasing to Jonah displeasure great and it burned to him.
2 и помолися ко Господу и рече: о Господи, не сия ли убо словеса моя, яже глаголах, еще сущу ми на земли моей? Сего ради предварих бежати в Фарсис, зане разумех, яко милостив Ты еси и щедр, долготерпелив и многомилостив, и каяйся о злобах (человеческих):
And he prayed to Yahweh and he said I beg you O Yahweh ¿ not [was] this word my until was I on own land my there-fore I did [the] first time to flee Tarshish towards that I knew that you [are] a God gracious and compassionate long of anger and great of covenant loyalty and [who] relents on evil.
3 и ныне, Владыко Господи, приими душу мою от мене, яко уне ми умрети, нежели жити.
And therefore O Yahweh take please life my from me for [is] good death my more than life my.
4 И рече Господь ко Ионе: аще зело опечалился еси ты?
And he said Yahweh ¿ rightly does it burn to you.
5 И изыде Иона из града и седе прямо града, и сотвори себе кущу и седяще под нею в сени, дондеже увидит, что будет граду.
And he went out Jonah from the city and he sat from east of the city and he made for himself there a shelter and he sat under it in the shade until that he will see what? will it be in the city.
6 И повеле Господь Бог тыкве, и возрасте над главою его, еже осенити его от злых его. И возрадовася Иона о тыкве радостию великою.
And he appointed Yahweh God a plant and it went up - over Jonah to be shade over head his to deliver him from distress his and he rejoiced Jonah on the plant a joy great.
7 И повеле Господь Бог червию раннему во утрие, и подяде тыкву, и изсше.
And he appointed God a worm when came up the dawn to the next day and it attacked the plant and it withered.
8 И бысть вкупе внегда возсияти солнцу, и повеле Бог ветру знойну жегущу, и порази солнце на главу Ионину, и малодушствоваше и отрицашеся души своея и рече:
And it was - when arose the sun and he appointed God a wind an east wind hot and it struck the sun on [the] head of Jonah and he became faint and he asked life his to die and he said [is] good death my more than life my.
9 уне ми умрети, нежели жити. И рече Господь Бог ко Ионе: зело ли опечалился еси ты о тыкве? И рече (Иона): зело опечалихся аз даже до смерти.
And he said God to Jonah ¿ rightly does it burn to you on the plant and he said rightly it burns to me to death.
10 И рече Господь: ты оскорбился еси о тыкве, о нейже не трудился еси, ни воскормил еси ея, яже родися об нощь и об нощь погибе:
And he said Yahweh you you had compassion on the plant which not you had toiled in it and not you had made grow it that a son of a night it was and a son of a night it perished.
11 Аз же не пощажду ли Ниневии града великаго, в немже живут множайшии неже дванадесять тем человек, иже не познаша десницы своея, ниже шуйцы своея, и скоти их мнози?
And I not will I have compassion? on Nineveh the city great which there in it [are] many more than two [plus] ten ten thousand person[s] who not he distinguishes between right [hand] his and left his and livestock much.
