Yunus 3
1 Perwerdigarning sözi ikkinchi qétim Yunusqa yétip mundaq déyildi: —
The LORD’s word came to Jonah the second time, saying,
2 «Ornungdin tur, Ninewe dégen ashu büyük sheherge bérip, Men sanga tapshurghan xewerni ulargha jakarla».
“Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach to it the message that I give you.”
3 Yunus ornidin turup Perwerdigarning sözi boyiche Ninewe shehirige bardi. Ninewe bolsa nahayiti büyük bir sheher bolup, sheherning özila üch künlük yol idi.
So Jonah arose, and went to Nineveh, according to the LORD’s word. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, three days’ journey across.
4 Yunus sheher ichige kirip bir kün mangdi, u: — Qiriq kündin kéyin, Ninewe shehiri weyran qilinidu! — dep jakarlidi.
Jonah began to enter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried out, and said, “In forty days, Nineveh will be overthrown!”
5 Ninewedikiler Xudaning sözige ishendi. Ular roza tutulsun dep élan qilip, mötiwerlerdin tartip eng kichikigiche ularning hemmisi böz kiyim kiydi.
The people of Nineveh believed God; and they proclaimed a fast and put on sackcloth, from their greatest even to their least.
6 Bu söz padishahqa yetkende, umu textidin turup, tonini tashlap böz kiyim kiyip küllükke kirip olturdi.
The news reached the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, took off his royal robe, covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
7 U yene emri arqiliq pütkül Ninewe shehirige munularni jakarlidi: — «Padishah hem aqsöngeklerning yarliqi boyiche, Ninewe shehiridiki héchqandaq adem, at-ulagh, kala, qoy padiliri héchnersige éghiz tegmisun; héchnersini yémisun, sumu ichmisun.
He made a proclamation and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, “Let neither man nor animal, herd nor flock, taste anything; let them not feed, nor drink water;
8 Herbir adem we haywan böz kiysun, herbiri Xudagha qattiq peryad kötürsun; herbiri yaman yoldin yansun, herbiri qolini zorawanliqtin üzsun;
but let them be covered with sackcloth, both man and animal, and let them cry mightily to God. Yes, let them turn everyone from his evil way and from the violence that is in his hands.
9 kim bilidu, buning bilen Xuda qattiq ghezipidin yénip bizni halak qilmasmikin?».
Who knows whether God will not turn and relent, and turn away from his fierce anger, so that we might not perish?”
10 Shuning bilen Xuda ularning emellirini, yeni yaman yollardin yan’ghanliqini körüp, ulargha qaratqan bala-qazani chüshürüshtin yénip, shu baliyaqazani chüshürmidi.
God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way. God relented of the disaster which he said he would do to them, and he didn’t do it.
