< Yoonis 4 >

1 Laakiinse Yoonis taas aad buu uga calool xumaaday, wuuna xanaaqay.
But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry.
2 Kolkaasuu wuxuu baryay Rabbiga oo ku yidhi, Rabbiyow, waan ku baryayaaye, sow kanu ma aha hadalkii aan idhi intaan weli dalkaygii joogay? Oo taas daraaddeed ayaan u degdegay si aan xagga Tarshiish ugu cararo, waayo, waan ogaa inaad tahay Ilaah nimco miidhan ah, oo raxmadu ka buuxdo, oo cadhada u gaabiya, oo naxariis badan, iyo inaad sharka ka noqotid.
He prayed to the LORD, and said, “Please, LORD, wasn’t this what I said when I was still in my own country? Therefore I hurried to flee to Tarshish, for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and you relent of doing harm.
3 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed, Rabbiyow, waan ku baryayaaye naftayda iga qaad, waayo, intii aan noolaan lahaa waxaa iiga roon inaan dhinto.
Therefore now, LORD, take, I beg you, my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
4 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, War inaad xanaaqdid ma kuu wanaagsan tahay?
The LORD said, “Is it right for you to be angry?”
5 Markaasaa Yoonis ka baxay magaaladii, oo wuxuu fadhiistay magaalada dhankeedii bari, oo halkaasuu waab ka dhistay. Markaasuu hadhkii hoos fadhiistay ilaa uu arko waxa magaalada ku dhacaya.
Then Jonah went out of the city and sat on the east side of the city, and there made himself a booth and sat under it in the shade, until he might see what would become of the city.
6 Kolkaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu diyaariyey geed ubbo ah, oo wuxuu ka dhigay inuu kor fuulo waabkii Yoonis, si uu hoos ugu noqdo, oo uu uga samatabbixiyo xaalkiisii xumaa. Sidaas daraaddeed Yoonis aad iyo aad buu ugu farxay geedkii ubbada ahaa aawadiis.
The LORD God prepared a vine and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shade over his head to deliver him from his discomfort. So Jonah was exceedingly glad because of the vine.
7 Laakiinse maalintii dambe markii waagii beryay ayaa Ilaah diyaariyey dixiri, oo isna geedkii ubbada ahaa ayuu gooyay ilaa uu engegay.
But God prepared a worm at dawn the next day, and it chewed on the vine so that it withered.
8 Oo kolkii qorraxdii soo baxday ayaa Ilaah diyaariyey dabayl kulul oo bari ka timid; qorraxdiina Yoonis ayay madaxa kaga dhegtay ilaa uu itaal darnaaday, oo isna wuxuu ku baryootamay inuu dhinto, oo wuxuu yidhi, Intii aan noolaan lahaa waxaa iiga roon inaan dhinto.
When the sun arose, God prepared a sultry east wind; and the sun beat on Jonah’s head, so that he was faint and requested for himself that he might die. He said, “It is better for me to die than to live.”
9 Markaasaa Ilaah wuxuu Yoonis ku yidhi, War inaad geedkii ubbada ahaa u xanaaqdid ma kuu wanaagsan tahay? Oo isna wuxuu yidhi, Haah, oo inaan cadhoodo way ii wanaagsan tahay xataa ilaa dhimasho.
God said to Jonah, “Is it right for you to be angry about the vine?” He said, “I am right to be angry, even to death.”
10 Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaad u jixinjixday geedkii ubbada ahaa oo aadan u hawshoon oo aadan korinin oo habeen iska soo baxay oo habeen ku baabba'ay.
The LORD said, “You have been concerned for the vine, for which you have not labored, neither made it grow; which came up in a night and perished in a night.
11 Haddaba sow iima eka inaan u jixinjixo magaalada weyn oo Nineweh, taasoo ay gudaheeda ku jiraan dad ka badan boqol iyo labaatan kun oo qof oo aan kala garan karin gacantooda midig iyo gacantooda bidix, iyo weliba xoolo badan?
Shouldn’t I be concerned for Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than one hundred twenty thousand persons who can’t discern between their right hand and their left hand, and also many animals?”
