Jona 4
1 Toda to je Jona silno razžalilo in bil je zelo jezen.
And Jonas was turmentid with greet turment, and was wrooth.
2 Molil je h Gospodu ter rekel: »Prosim te, oh Gospod, ali ni bila to moja beseda, ko sem bil še v svoji deželi? Zatorej sem prej pobegnil v Taršíš, kajti vedel sem, da si milostljiv Bog in usmiljen, počasen za jezo in zelo prijazen in se kesaš zlega.
And he preiede the Lord, and seide, Lord, Y biseche, whether this is not my word, whanne Y was yit in my lond? For this thing Y purposide, for to fle in to Tharsis; for Y woot, that thou, God, art meke and merciful, pacient, and of merciful doyng, and foryyuynge on malice.
3 Zatorej sedaj, oh Gospod, vzemi, rotim te, moje življenje od mene, kajti zame je bolje, da umrem, kakor da živim.«
And now, Lord, Y preie, take my soule fro me; for deth is betere to me than lijf.
4 Potem je Gospod rekel: »Delaš pravilno, da si jezen?«
And the Lord seide, Gessist thou, whether thou art wel wrooth?
5 Tako je Jona odšel ven iz mesta in se usedel na vzhodni strani mesta in si tam postavil šotor in sedèl pod njim v senco, toliko časa, da lahko vidi kaj bo iz mesta nastalo.
And Jonas wente out of the citee, and sat ayens the eest of the citee, and made to hym a schadewyng place there; and sat vndur it in schadewe, til he sai what bifelle to the citee.
6 Gospod Bog pa je pripravil bučo in ji storil, da vzklije nad Jona, da bi bila ta lahko senca nad njegovo glavo, da ga osvobodi pred njegovo žalostjo. Tako je bil Jona buče silno vesel.
And the Lord God made redy an yuy, and it stiede vp on the heed of Jonas, that schadewe were on his heed, and kyueride hym; for he hadde trauelid. And Jonas was glad on the yuy, with greet gladnesse.
7 Toda ko je naslednjega dne vstalo jutro, je Bog pripravil ličinko in ta je napadla bučo, da je ovenela.
And God made redi a worm, in stiyng up of grei dai on the morewe; and it smoot the yuy, and it driede up.
8 Ko je sonce vstalo, se je pripetilo, da je Bog pripravil silovit vzhodnik. Sonce je udarjalo na Jonovo glavo, da je slabel in si v sebi želel, da umre ter rekel: »Zame je boljše, da umrem, kakor da živim.«
And whanne the sunne was risun, the Lord comaundide to the hoot wynd and brennyng; and the sunne smoot on the heed of Jonas, and he swalide. And he axide to his soule that he schulde die, and seide, It is betere to me for to die, than for to lyue.
9 Bog je Jonu rekel: »Delaš pravilno, da si jezen zaradi buče?« Ta je rekel: »Pravilno delam, da sem jezen, celó do smrti.«
And the Lord seide to Jonas, Gessist thou, whether thou art wel wrooth on the yuy? And he seide, Y am wel wrooth, til to the deth.
10 Potem je Gospod rekel: »Usmiljenje imaš za bučo, za katero nisi delal niti ji storil, da zraste, ki je v [eni] noči vzklila in v [eni] noči propadla,
And the Lord seide, Thou art sori on the yuy, in which thou trauelidist not, nether madist that it wexide, which was growun vndur o nyyt, and perischide in o nyyt.
11 jaz pa naj ne bi prizanesel Ninivam, temu velikemu mestu, v katerem je več kot sto dvajset tisoč oseb, ki ne morejo razlikovati med svojo desnico in svojo levico in tudi veliko živine?«
And schal Y not spare the grete citee Nynyue, in which ben more than sixe score thousynde of men, which witen not what is betwixe her riyt half and left, and many beestis?
