Siona 1
1 Ko eni, naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siona, ko e foha ʻo ʻAmitai, ʻo pehē,
Okwu Onyenwe anyị bịakwutere Jona nwa Amitai, na-asị,
2 “Tuʻu hake ʻo ʻalu ki Ninive, ʻae kolo lahi ko ia, pea ke kalanga ki ai; he kuo aʻu hake ki hoku ʻao ʻa ʻenau angahala.”
“Bilie, gaa Ninive, bụ obodo ukwu ahụ, kwusaa okwu megide ya, nʼihi na ajọ omume ha abịarutela nʼihu m.”
3 Ka naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Siona ke hola ki Tasisi mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea ne ʻalu hifo ai ki Sopa; pea naʻa ne ʻilo ai ʻae vaka, naʻe te u folau ki Tasisi; ko ia naʻa ne ʻatu ki ai ʻae totongi, ʻo ne ʻalu ai, ko ʻene ʻalu mo kinautolu ki Tasisi, mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
Ma Jona gbapụrụ ọsọ site nʼihu Onyenwe anyị chee ihu ya ije Tashish. O biliri jee Jopa, nʼebe ọ hụrụ ụgbọ mmiri nke na-aga Tashish. Ọ kwụrụ ụgwọ ije ụgbọ, banye isoro gaa Tashish ka o nwee ike gbapụ site nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
4 Ka naʻe tuku atu ʻe Sihova ʻae fuʻu matangi ki he tahi, pea naʻe havili ʻaupito ʻi he vaha, pea ko ia naʻe hangē ka maumau ʻae vaka.
Ma Onyenwe anyị mere ka ifufe dị egwu malite ife nʼelu osimiri ahụ, ebili mmiri bidokwara na-amagharị, chọọ itiwasị ụgbọ mmiri ahụ.
5 Pea naʻe toki manavahē ʻae kau vaka, pea naʻe taki taha tangi ki hono ʻotua, pea naʻe tolo kotoa pē ʻae meʻa ʻi he vaka, koeʻuhi ke maʻamaʻa. Ka kuo ʻalu hifo ʻa Siona ki he kaokao ʻoe vaka; pea naʻa ne tokoto, ʻo mohe maʻu.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị niile na-arụ ọrụ nʼụgbọ ahụ tụrụ oke egwu, malite itiku chi ha. Ha malitekwara itufu ihe niile dị nʼụgbọ mmiri ahụ, ime ka ụgbọ ahụ dị mfe. Ma nʼoge ihe ndị a na-eme, Jona nọrịị nʼala ala ụgbọ mmiri ahụ ebe o dinara ala na-arahụ ụra.
6 Ko ia ne haʻu ai kiate ia ʻae ʻeiki vaka ʻo ne pehēange kiate ia, “Ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻo hoʻo pehē, ʻa koe ʻoku mohe? Tuʻu hake, ui ki ho ʻOtua ʻoʻou, heiʻilo ʻe manatuʻi ʻakitautolu ʻe he ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa tau mate.”
Onyeisi ụgbọ jekwuru Jona sị ya, “Gịnị ka ị nọ nʼebe a na-eme, ị na-arahụ ụra? Bilie, kpọkuo chi gị, ma eleghị anya o nwere ike ileta anyị anya, meere anyị ebere, zọpụta anyị.”
7 Pea naʻa nau fepehēʻaki ʻiate kinautolu, “Ko eni ke tau fai ha talotalo, koeʻuhi ke tau ʻilo pe ko hai ia kuo hoko ai ʻae kovi ni kiate kitautolu.” Pea naʻa nau talotalo, pea totonu ʻae talotalo kia Siona.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị nọ nʼụgbọ sịrịtara ibe ha, “Bịanụ ka anyị fee nza mata onye ihe ọjọọ dị otu a sị nʼaka ya bịakwasị anyị.” Ya mere, ha fere nza, nza ahụ a maa Jona.
8 Pea naʻa nau pehē ai kiate ia, “ʻOku mau kole kiate koe, fakahā mai pe ko e hā ʻae meʻa kuo hoko ai ʻae kovi ni kiate kitautolu; Ko e hā hoʻo ngāue ʻaʻau? Pea kuo ke haʻu koe mei fē? Ko fē ʻia ho fonua? Pea ʻoku ke ʻoe kakai fē?”
Nʼihi ya, ha sịrị ya, “Gwa anyị, onye mere ka ihe dị otu a bịakwasị anyị. Gịnị bụ ọrụ gị? Ebee ka i si bịa? Ị bụ onye obodo ebee? Ole agbụrụ i si na ya pụta?”
9 Pea naʻa ne pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Ko e tangata Hepelū au; pea ʻoku ou manavahē kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe langi, ʻaia kuo ne ngaohi ʻae tahi, pea mo e fonua mōmoa.”
Ọ sịrị, “Abụ m onye Hibru, na onye na-akpọ isiala nye Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke nke eluigwe, onye kere osimiri na ala akọrọ.”
10 Pea naʻe toki tō ai ʻae manavahē lahi ki he kau tangata, mo nau pehē kiate ia. “Ko e hā kuo ke fai ai ʻae meʻa ni?” He naʻe ʻilo ʻe he kau tangata ʻa ʻene hola mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova, he naʻa ne fakahā ia kiate kinautolu.
Egwu dị ukwuu tụrụ ụmụ nwoke ahụ, ha sịrị ya, “Gịnị ka i mere?” Nʼihi na ha matara na o si nʼihu Onyenwe anyị na-agbapụ ọsọ, nʼihi na ọ gwala ha rịị na ọ bụ otu o si dị.
11 Ko ia naʻa nau pehē ai kiate ia, “Ko e hā te mau fai kiate koe, koeʻuhi kae laolao ʻae tahi kiate kitautolu?” He naʻe hou ʻae tahi, pea havili lahi.
Ma ebili mmiri ahụ gara nʼihu na-amali nʼike nʼike. Nʼihi ya, ha sịrị, “Gịnị ka anyị ga-eme gị, nke ga-eme ka osimiri dajụọ?”
12 Pea ne pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Mou hiki hake au, pea lī au ki tahi; ko ia ia ʻe laolao ai ʻae tahi kiate kimoutolu: he ʻoku ou ʻilo ko au pe ia kuo hoko ai ʻae fuʻu havili ni kiate kimoutolu.”
Ọ gwara ha, “Bulienụ m tụnye nʼime osimiri. Nke a ga-emekwa ka ọ dajụọ. Nʼihi na amaara m na ọ bụ nʼihi m ka ebili mmiri ọjọọ a ji na-abịakwasị unu.”
13 Ka naʻe fekeli mālohi ʻae kau tangata koeʻuhi ke nau lava ki ʻuta: ka naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa fai: he naʻe hou ʻae tahi, pea havili, pea tokai kiate kinautolu.
Kama, ndị ikom ahụ ji ike nyasie ụgbọ ahụ ichigharị ya laghachi nʼelu ala, ma ha enweghị ike. Nʼihi na oke osimiri ahụ na-amali elu karịa ka ọ dị na mbụ.
14 Ko ia naʻa nau tangi ai kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku mau kole kiate koe, ʻE Sihova, ʻoku mau kole kiate koe, ke ʻoua naʻa mau mate, koeʻuhi ko e moʻui ʻae tangata ni; pea ʻoua naʻa tuku kiate kimautolu ʻae toto ʻoe taʻehalaia: he ko koe, ʻE Sihova, kuo ke fai ʻe koe ʻa hoʻo faʻiteliha.”
Mgbe ahụ, ha tikuru Onyenwe anyị mkpu akwa sị, “Onyenwe anyị, biko ekwela ka anyị nwụọ nʼihi ọnwụ nwoke a. Biko, atụkwasịkwala ọbara nwoke a na-emeghị ihe ọjọọ nʼisi anyị, nʼihi na gị Onyenwe anyị emeela dịka i si chọọ.”
15 Ko ia ne nau toʻo hake ʻa Siona, pea lī atu ia ki tahi: pea naʻe ngata ai leva ʻae hou ʻae tahi.
Ya mere, ha buliri Jona elu tụnye ya nʼime osimiri ahụ, ebili mmiri ahụ dajụkwara.
16 Pea ne toki manavahē lahi ʻaupito ʻae kau tangata kia Sihova, pea naʻa nau fai ʻae feilaulau kia Sihova, mo nau fai ʻae ngaahi fuakava.
Mgbe nke a mere ndị ikom ahụ tụrụ egwu Onyenwe anyị nke ukwuu. Ha chụụrụ Onyenwe anyị aja, kwekwa ya nkwa dị iche iche.
17 Ka ko eni, naʻe teuteu ʻe Sihova ʻae fuʻu ika ke ne folo hifo ʻa Siona. Pea naʻe ʻaho tolu mo pō tolu ʻa Siona ʻi he kete ʻoe ika.
Ma Onyenwe anyị akwadolarị otu azụ buru ibu ka o loo Jona. Ya mere, Jona nọrọ nʼafọ azụ ahụ ụbọchị atọ, ehihie na abalị.
