Yoonis 1

1 Haddaba waxaa Yoonis ina Amitay u yimid Eraygii Rabbiga oo sidan ku leh,

Now the word of the Lord came to Jonas the son of Amathi, saying,

2 Kac, oo waxaad tagtaa magaaladaas weyn oo Nineweh, oo iyada ku qayli, waayo, sharkoodii wuxuu yimid hortayda.

Rise, and go to Nineve, the great city, and preach in it; for the cry of its wickedness is come up to me.

3 Laakiinse Yoonis wuxuu u kacay inuu Rabbiga hortiisa ka cararo oo xagga Tarshiish u baxsado. Markaasuu Yaafaa u dhaadhacay oo wuxuu halkaas ka helay doonni Tarshiish tegaysa. Sidaas daraaddeed lacagtii nooliguu bixiyey, kolkaasuu gudaha galay, waayo, wuxuu doonayay inuu iyaga Tarshiish u raaco oo uu ka cararo Rabbiga hortiisa.

But Jonas rose up to flee to Tharsis from the presence of the Lord. And he went down to Joppa, and found a ship going to Tharsis: and he paid his fare, and went up into it, to sail with them to Tharsis from the presence of the Lord.

4 Laakiinse Rabbigu wuxuu baddii ku soo daayay dabayl weyn, kolkaasaa waxaa baddii ka dhex kacay duufaan xoog leh, doonnidiina waxay ku dhowaatay inay burburto.

And the Lord raised up a wind on the sea; and there was a great storm on the sea, and the ship was in danger of being broken.

5 Markaasay raggii baxriyiinta ahaa aad u baqeen, oo mid waluba wuxuu u qayshaday ilaahiisii. Alaabtii doonnida ku jirtayna badday ku dhex tuureen, si ay doonnidu iyaga ugu fududaato. Laakiinse wuxuu Yoonis mar hore u dhaadhacay doonnida meesha ugu hoosaysa, oo halkaasuu seexday, wuxuuna ku jiray hurdo weyn.

And the sailors were alarmed, and cried every one to his god, and cast out the wares that were in the ship into the sea, that it might be lightened of them. But Jonas was gone down into the hold of the ship, and was asleep, and snored.

6 Haddaba waxaa isagii u yimid naakhudihii doonnida, oo ku yidhi, Hurdahayow, maxaad u jeeddaa? Kac oo Ilaahaaga u qayli, waaba intaasoo uu inaga fikiraa inaannan halligmine.

And the shipmaster came to him, and said to him, Why snorest thou? arise, and call upon thy God, that God may save us, and we perish not.

7 Oo wuxuu midba midkii kale ku yidhi, Kaalaya aynu saami ridannee si aan u ogaanno kan aawadiis belaayadanu inoogu dhacday. Sidaas daraaddeed saami bay riteen, oo saamigiina wuxuu ku dhacay Yoonis.

And each man said to his neighbour, Come, let us cast lots, and find out for whose sake this mischief is upon us. So they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonas.

8 Markaasay waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, Waannu ku baryaynaaye noo sheeg kan aawadiis belaayadanu inoogu dhacday. Waa maxay shuqulkaagu? Oo xaggee baad ka timid? Waddankaagu waa kee? Dadkaaguna waa ayo?

And they said to him, Tell us what is thine occupation, and whence comest thou, and of what country and what people art thou?

9 Oo isna wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Waxaan ahay Cibraani, oo waxaan ka cabsadaa Rabbiga ah Ilaaha samada, oo ah Kan abuuray badda iyo berrigaba.

And he said to them, I am a servant of the Lord; and I worship the Lord God of heaven, who made the sea, and the dry [land].

10 Markaasay nimankii aad iyo aad u cabsadeen, oo ku yidhaahdeen, Waa maxay waxa aad samaysay? Waayo, waxay ogaadeen inuu Rabbiga hortiisa ka soo cararay, maxaa yeelay, isagaa u sheegay.

Then the men feared exceedingly, and said to him, What is this [that] thou hast done? for the men knew that he was fleeing from the face of the Lord, because he had told them.

11 Markaasay ku yidhaahdeen, Si baddu noogu degto aawadeed haddaba bal maxaannu kugu samaynaa? Waayo, badda duufaankeedii aad iyo aad buu u sii weynaaday.

And they said to him, What shall we do to thee, that the sea may be calm to us? for the sea rose, and lifted its wave exceedingly.

12 Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Kor ii qaada oo badda igu dhex tuura, sidaasay baddu idiinku degi doontaaye, waayo, waxaan ogahay in duufaankan weynu daraadday idiinku soo kacay.

And Jonas said to them, Take me up, and cast me into the sea, and the sea shall be calm to you: for I know that for my sake this great tempest is upon you.

13 Habase yeeshee nimankii aad bay seeb doonnidii ugu wadeen oo ugu dadaaleen inay xeebtii ku soo noqdaan, laakiinse way kari waayeen, maxaa yeelay, badda duufaankeedii oo ka gees ahaa aad iyo aad buu u sii weynaaday.

And the men tried hard to return to the land, and were not able: for the sea rose and grew more and more tempestuous against them.

14 Markaasay Rabbiga u qayshadeen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Rabbiyow, waannu ku baryaynaa, oo waannu ku baryaynaaye, yaannan u halligmin nolosha ninkan aawadeed, oo annaga ha na saarin dhiig aan xaq qabin, waayo, Rabbiyow, waxaad samaysay sidii aad ku faraxday.

And they cried to the Lord, and said, Forbid it, Lord: let us not perish for the sake of this man's life, and bring not righteous blood upon us: for thou, Lord, hast done as thou wouldest.

15 Sidaas daraaddeed Yoonis bay kor u qaadeen oo waxay ku dhex tuureen baddii, kolkaasay baddii joojisay cadhadeedii.

So they took Jonas, and cast him out into the sea: and the sea ceased from its raging.

16 Markaasay nimankii aad iyo aad Rabbiga uga cabsadeen, oo waxay Rabbiga u bixiyeen allabari, nidarrona way galeen.

And the men feared the Lord very greatly, and offered a sacrifice to the Lord, and vowed vows.

17 Oo Rabbigu wuxuu Yoonis u diyaariyey kalluun weyn oo isaga liqa; Yoonisna wuxuu kalluunka calooshiisii ku dhex jiray saddex habeen iyo saddex maalmood.

Now the Lord had commanded a great whale to swallow up Jonas: and Jonas was in the belly of the whale three days and three nights.
