< Yunus 1 >

1 Pǝrwǝrdigarning sɵzi Amittayning oƣli Yunusⱪa yetip kelip mundaⱪ deyildi: —
Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kuJona indodana kaAmithayi, lisithi:
2 «Ornungdin tur, dǝrⱨal Ninǝwǝ degǝn axu büyük xǝⱨǝrgǝ berip, awazingni kɵtürüp u yǝrdikilǝrni agaⱨlandurƣin; qünki ularning rǝzillikliri Mening kɵzümgǝ ⱪadilip turidu».
Sukuma, uye eNineve, umuzi omkhulu, umemeze umelene lawo; ngoba ububi babo benyukele phambi kwami.
3 Biraⱪ Yunus ornidin turup Pǝrwǝrdigarning yüzidin ɵzini ⱪaqurux üqün Tarxix degǝn yurtⱪa kǝtmǝkqi boldi. Xunga u Yoppa xǝⱨirigǝ berip, Tarxixⱪa baridiƣan kemǝ tepip, kirasini tɵlǝp uningƣa qüxti wǝ kemiqilǝr bilǝn birliktǝ Tarxixⱪa berip, Pǝrwǝrdigarning yüzidin ɵzini ⱪaqurmaⱪqi boldi.
Kodwa uJona wasukuma ukuze abalekele eTarshishi esuka ebusweni beNkosi, wehlela eJopha, wathola umkhumbi oya eTarshishi, wanika imali yawo, wehlela kuwo, ukuze ahambe labo eTarshishi, asuke ebusweni beNkosi.
4 Pǝrwǝrdigar bolsa zor bir boranni dengizƣa taxlidi; xunga dengizda dǝⱨxǝtlik ⱪara boran qiⱪip, kemǝ parqilinip kǝtkili tas ⱪaldi.
Kodwa iNkosi yaphosa umoya omkhulu elwandle; kwasekusiba lesiphepho esikhulu elwandle, okungangokuthi umkhumbi wacatshangelwa ukwephuka.
5 Kemiqilǝr bolsa bǝk ⱪorⱪup ketip, ⱨǝrⱪaysisi ɵz ilaⱨliriƣa hitab ⱪilip dua ⱪilixti; ular kemini yeniklisun dǝp uningdiki yük-taⱪlarni dengizƣa taxliwǝtti. Biraⱪ Yunus bolsa, kemining asti ⱪǝwitigǝ qüxüwelip, xu yǝrdǝ ɵlüktǝk uhlawatⱪanidi.
Abatshayeli bomkhumbi basebesesaba, bakhala, ngulowo lalowo kunkulunkulu wakhe, baphosela olwandle izimpahla ezazisemkhunjini, ukuwenza ube lula kuzo. Kodwa uJona wayehlele emaceleni omkhumbi, walala, waba lobuthongo obukhulu.
6 Kemǝ baxliⱪi uning yeniƣa kelip uningƣa: «Əy, uhlawatⱪan kixi, bu ⱪandaⱪ ⱪiliƣining? Ornungdin tur, ilaⱨingni seƣinip nida ⱪil! Kim bilidu, ilaⱨingning nǝziri qüxüp bizni ⱨalakǝttin ⱪutⱪuzup ⱪalamdu tehi?» — dedi.
Ngakho induna yomkhumbi yasondela kuye, yathi kuye: Ulani wena olobuthongo obukhulu? Vuka, ubize kuNkulunkulu wakho; mhlawumbe lowoNkulunkulu angasikhumbula, ukuze singabhubhi.
7 Ular bir-birigǝ: — Kelinglar, bu külpǝtning kimning wǝjidin beximizƣa qüxkǝnlikini bekitix üqün qǝk taxlayli, — deyixti. Xundaⱪ ⱪilip ular qǝk taxlaxti; ahirda qǝktǝ Yunus qiⱪip ⱪaldi.
Basebesithi, ngulowo kumngane wakhe: Wozani senze inkatho yokuphosa, ukuze sazi ukuthi kungenxa kabani lobububi buphezu kwethu. Basebesenza inkatho yokuphosa; inkatho yasiwela phezu kukaJona.
8 Ular uningdin: — Ⱪeni, eyt, beximizƣa qüxkǝn bu külpǝt kimning sǝwǝbidin boluwatidu? Sening tirikqiliking nemǝ? Nǝdin kǝlding? Ⱪaysi ǝl, ⱪaysi millǝttin sǝn? — dǝp soridi.
Basebesithi kuye: Akusitshele ukuthi kungenxa kabani lobububi buphezu kwethu. Umsebenzi wakho uyini? Njalo uvela ngaphi? Yiliphi ilizwe lakini? Njalo ungowasiphi isizwe?
9 U ularƣa: — Mǝn bolsam ibraniy millitidin, ǝrxlǝrdiki Hudadin, yǝni dengizni, yǝr-zeminni yaratⱪan Pǝrwǝrdigardin ⱪorⱪⱪuqimǝn, dedi.
Wasesithi kubo: NgingumHebheru, ngiyayesaba iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wamazulu, owenza ulwandle lomhlabathi owomileyo.
10 Bu sɵz ularni intayin ⱪorⱪutiwǝtti. Ular: «Sǝn zadi nemǝ ix ⱪilƣan?» — dǝp soridi [qünki ular uning Pǝrwǝrdigarning yüzidin ⱪaqⱪanliⱪini bilgǝnidi, qünki ular buni uning ɵz aƣzidin angliƣanidi].
Amadoda asesesaba ngokwesaba okukhulu, athi kuye: Ukwenzeleni lokhu? Ngoba amadoda akwazi ukuthi ubalekile ebusweni beNkosi, ngoba wayesewatshelile.
11 Ular uningdin: — Əmdi biz seni ⱪandaⱪ ⱪilsaⱪ dengiz biz üqün tinqlinidu? — dǝp soridi; qünki dengiz dolⱪuni barƣanseri ǝwj elip ketiwatatti.
Asesithi kuye: Senzeni kuwe ukuze ulwandle luthule kithi? Ngoba ulwandle lwaqhubeka lwaba lesiphepho esikhulu.
12 U ularƣa: — Meni kɵtürüp dengizƣa taxliwetinglar, xu qaƣda dengiz silǝr üqün tinqlinidu; qünki bilimǝnki, bu zor boran mening sǝwǝbimdin silǝrgǝ qüxti, — dedi.
Wasesithi kiwo: Ngiphakamisani, lingiphosele olwandle; ngalokho ulwandle luzalithulela; ngoba ngiyazi ukuthi lesisiphepho esikhulu siphezu kwenu ngenxa yami.
13 Biraⱪ bu adǝmlǝr küqǝp palaⱪ urup ⱪirƣaⱪⱪa yetixkǝ tirixti; ǝmma yetǝlmidi, qünki dengiz ⱪerixⱪandǝk tehimu dolⱪunlap ketiwatatti.
Kodwa amadoda agwedla ngamandla ukuze awubuyisele umkhumbi emhlabathini owomileyo, kodwa ehluleka, ngoba ulwandle lwaqhubeka lwaba lesiphepho lumelene lawo.
14 Ular Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa iltija ⱪilip pǝryad kɵtürüp: — Aⱨ Pǝrwǝrdigar, Sǝndin ɵtünimiz, bu adǝmning jenini alƣanliⱪimizni bizdin kɵrmigǝysǝn! Bigunaⱨ bir adǝmning ⱪenini tɵküxning gunaⱨini üstimizgǝ ⱪoymiƣaysǝn! Qünki Sǝn Pǝrwǝrdigar Ɵzüngning haliƣiningni ⱪilding! — dǝp nida ⱪildi.
Ngakho akhala eNkosini, athi: Siyakuncenga, Nkosi, kasingabhubhi ngenxa yempilo yalumuntu, ungabeki phezu kwethu igazi elingelacala; ngoba wena, Nkosi, wenzile njengokukuthokozisayo.
15 Xuning bilǝn ular Yunusni kɵtürüp elip dengizƣa taxliwǝtti; dengiz dolⱪunlinixtin xuan tohtidi.
Asephakamisa uJona, amphosela elwandle; ulwandle lwaselusima ekuvubekeni kwalo.
16 Xuning bilǝn bu adǝmlǝr Pǝrwǝrdigardin ⱪattiⱪ ⱪorⱪti; ular Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa atap ⱪurbanliⱪ ⱪilip ⱪǝsǝm iqixti.
Amadoda aseyesaba iNkosi ngokwesaba okukhulu, anikela umhlatshelo eNkosini, afunga izifungo.
17 Biraⱪ Pǝrwǝrdigar Yunusni yutuwelixⱪa yoƣan bir beliⱪni ǝwǝtkǝnidi. Yunus bolsa bu beliⱪning ⱪarnida üq keqǝ-kündüz turdi.
Njalo iNkosi yayimise inhlanzi enkulu ukuze imginye uJona; njalo uJona waba semathunjini enhlanzi insuku ezintathu lobusuku obuthathu.
