Yunus 1
1 Perwerdigarning sözi Amittayning oghli Yunusqa yétip kélip mundaq déyildi: —
[One day] Yahweh said to [the prophet] Jonah, the son of Amittai,
2 «Ornungdin tur, derhal Ninewe dégen ashu büyük sheherge bérip, awazingni kötürüp u yerdikilerni agahlandurghin; chünki ularning rezillikliri Méning közümge qadilip turidu».
“I have [seen] how wicked [the people of] [MTY] the great city of Nineveh are. Therefore go there and warn the people that [I am planning to] destroy their city [because of their sins].”
3 Biraq Yunus ornidin turup Perwerdigarning yüzidin özini qachurush üchün Tarshish dégen yurtqa ketmekchi boldi. Shunga u Yoppa shehirige bérip, Tarshishqa baridighan kéme tépip, kirasini tölep uninggha chüshti we kémichiler bilen birlikte Tarshishqa bérip, Perwerdigarning yüzidin özini qachurmaqchi boldi.
But [instead of going to Nineveh], Jonah [went in the direction] opposite to where Yahweh [told him to go]. He went down to Joppa [city]. There he bought a ticket to travel on a ship that was going to Tarshish [city], in order to avoid [doing what] Yahweh [told him to do]. [He got on the ship, ] and [then went down] to a lower deck, [lay down, and went to sleep].
4 Perwerdigar bolsa zor bir boranni déngizgha tashlidi; shunga déngizda dehshetlik qara boran chiqip, kéme parchilinip ketkili tas qaldi.
Then Yahweh caused a very strong wind to blow, and there was such a violent storm that [the sailors thought] the ship would break apart.
5 Kémichiler bolsa bek qorqup kétip, herqaysisi öz ilahlirigha xitab qilip dua qilishti; ular kémini yéniklisun dep uningdiki yük-taqlarni déngizgha tashliwetti. Biraq Yunus bolsa, kémining asti qewitige chüshüwélip, shu yerde ölüktek uxlawatqanidi.
The sailors were very frightened. Because of that, they each [started to] pray to their own gods [to save them]. Then they threw the cargo into the sea to make the ship lighter [in order that it would not sink easily].
6 Kéme bashliqi uning yénigha kélip uninggha: «Ey, uxlawatqan kishi, bu qandaq qilighining? Ornungdin tur, ilahingni séghinip nida qil! Kim bilidu, ilahingning neziri chüshüp bizni halakettin qutquzup qalamdu téxi?» — dédi.
Then the captain went [down] to where Jonah was sleeping soundly. [He awoke him] and said [to him], “(How can you sleep [during a storm like this]?/You should not be sleeping [during a storm like this]) [RHQ]! Get up and pray to your god! Perhaps he will pity us and save us, in order that we will not drown!” [But Jonah refused to do that].
7 Ular bir-birige: — Kélinglar, bu külpetning kimning wejidin béshimizgha chüshkenlikini békitish üchün chek tashlayli, — déyishti. Shundaq qilip ular chek tashlashti; axirda chekte Yunus chiqip qaldi.
Then the sailors said to each other, “We need to (cast lots/shake from a container small objects that we have all marked), to determine who has caused [all] this trouble!” So they did that, and [the object with] Jonah’s mark fell out [of the container].
8 Ular uningdin: — Qéni, éyt, béshimizgha chüshken bu külpet kimning sewebidin boluwatidu? Séning tirikchiliking néme? Nedin kelding? Qaysi el, qaysi millettin sen? — dep soridi.
So [various ones of] them asked him, “Are you the one who has caused us all this trouble?” “What work do you do?” “Where are you [coming] from?” “What country and what people-group do you belong to?”
9 U ulargha: — Men bolsam ibraniy millitidin, ershlerdiki Xudadin, yeni déngizni, yer-zéminni yaratqan Perwerdigardin qorqquchimen, dédi.
Jonah replied, “I am a Hebrew. I worship Yahweh God, who [lives in] heaven. He is the one who made the sea and the land. I am trying to escape from [doing what] Yahweh [told me to do].”
10 Bu söz ularni intayin qorqutiwetti. Ular: «Sen zadi néme ish qilghan?» — dep soridi [chünki ular uning Perwerdigarning yüzidin qachqanliqini bilgenidi, chünki ular buni uning öz aghzidin anglighanidi].
After the sailors heard that, they were terrified. So they asked him, “Do you realize what [trouble] you have caused?”
11 Ular uningdin: — Emdi biz séni qandaq qilsaq déngiz biz üchün tinchlinidu? — dep soridi; chünki déngiz dolquni barghanséri ewj élip kétiwatatti.
The [storm kept getting worse and] the waves kept getting bigger. So [one of] the sailors asked Jonah, “What should we do in order to make the sea become calm?”
12 U ulargha: — Méni kötürüp déngizgha tashliwétinglar, shu chaghda déngiz siler üchün tinchlinidu; chünki bilimenki, bu zor boran méning sewebimdin silerge chüshti, — dédi.
He replied, “Pick me up and throw me into the sea. [If you do that], it will become calm. I know that this terrible storm is the result of my [not doing what Yahweh told me to do].”
13 Biraq bu ademler küchep palaq urup qirghaqqa yétishke tirishti; emma yételmidi, chünki déngiz qérishqandek téximu dolqunlap kétiwatatti.
But the sailors did [not want to do that]. [Instead], they tried hard to row the ship back to the land. But they could not [do that], because the storm continued to get worse.
14 Ular Perwerdigargha iltija qilip peryad kötürüp: — Ah Perwerdigar, Sendin ötünimiz, bu ademning jénini alghanliqimizni bizdin körmigeysen! Bigunah bir ademning qénini töküshning gunahini üstimizge qoymighaysen! Chünki Sen Perwerdigar Özüngning xalighiningni qilding! — dep nida qildi.
Therefore they prayed to Yahweh, and [one of them] prayed, “O Yahweh, please do not let us drown because of our causing this man to die. O Yahweh, you have done what you wanted to do. [We do not know if this man has sinned. If] he has not sinned, do not consider that we are guilty of sinning when we cause him to die!”
15 Shuning bilen ular Yunusni kötürüp élip déngizgha tashliwetti; déngiz dolqunlinishtin shuan toxtidi.
Then they picked Jonah up and threw him into the sea. Then the sea became calm.
16 Shuning bilen bu ademler Perwerdigardin qattiq qorqti; ular Perwerdigargha atap qurbanliq qilip qesem ichishti.
[When that happened], the sailors became greatly awed at Yahweh’s [power]. So they offered a sacrifice to Yahweh, and they strongly promised [him that they would do things that would please him].
17 Biraq Perwerdigar Yunusni yutuwélishqa yoghan bir béliqni ewetkenidi. Yunus bolsa bu béliqning qarnida üch kéche-kündüz turdi.
[While they were doing that, ] Yahweh sent a huge fish that swallowed Jonah. Then Jonah was inside the fish for three days and three nights.
