1 Ṣùgbọ́n ó ba Jona nínú jẹ́ gidigidi, ó sì bínú púpọ̀.
And it was displeasing to Jonah displeasure great and it burned to him.
2 Ó sì gbàdúrà sí Olúwa, ó sì wí pé, “Èmí bẹ̀ ọ́, Olúwa, ǹjẹ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ti mo sọ kọ́ ni èyí nígbà tí mo wà ní ilẹ̀ mi? Nítorí èyí ni mo ṣé sálọ sí Tarṣiṣi ní ìṣáájú: nítorí èmi mọ̀ pé, Ọlọ́run olóore-ọ̀fẹ́ ní ìwọ, àti aláàánú, O lọ́ra láti bínú, O sì ṣeun púpọ̀, O sì ronúpìwàdà ibi náà.
And he prayed to Yahweh and he said I beg you O Yahweh ¿ not [was] this word my until was I on own land my there-fore I did [the] first time to flee Tarshish towards that I knew that you [are] a God gracious and compassionate long of anger and great of covenant loyalty and [who] relents on evil.
3 Ǹjẹ́ báyìí, Olúwa, èmi bẹ̀ ọ, gba ẹ̀mí mi kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi nítorí ó sàn fún mi láti kú ju àti wà láààyè lọ.”
And therefore O Yahweh take please life my from me for [is] good death my more than life my.
4 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa wí pé, “Ìwọ́ ha ni ẹ̀tọ́ láti bínú bí?”
And he said Yahweh ¿ rightly does it burn to you.
5 Jona sì jáde kúrò ní ìlú náà, ó sì jókòó níhà ìlà-oòrùn ìlú náà. Ó sì pa àgọ́ kan níbẹ̀ fún ara rẹ̀, ó sì jókòó ni òjìji ní abẹ́ rẹ̀ títí yóò fi rí ohun tí yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ sí ìlú náà.
And he went out Jonah from the city and he sat from east of the city and he made for himself there a shelter and he sat under it in the shade until that he will see what? will it be in the city.
6 Olúwa Ọlọ́run sì pèsè ìtàkùn kan, ó ṣe é kí ó gòkè wá sórí Jona; kí ó lè ṣe ìji bò ó lórí; láti gbà á kúrò nínú ìbànújẹ́ rẹ̀. Jona sì yọ ayọ̀ ńlá nítorí ìtàkùn náà.
And he appointed Yahweh God a plant and it went up - over Jonah to be shade over head his to deliver him from distress his and he rejoiced Jonah on the plant a joy great.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run pèsè kòkòrò kan nígbà tí ilẹ̀ mọ́ ní ọjọ́ kejì, ó sì jẹ ìtàkùn náà ó sì rọ.
And he appointed God a worm when came up the dawn to the next day and it attacked the plant and it withered.
8 Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí oòrùn yọ, Ọlọ́run pèsè ẹ̀fúùfù gbígbóná tí ìlà-oòrùn; oòrùn sì pa Jona lórí tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ó fi rẹ̀ ẹ́. Ó sì fẹ́ nínú ara rẹ̀ láti kú, ó sì wí pé, “Ó sàn fún mi láti kú ju àti wà láààyè lọ.”
And it was - when arose the sun and he appointed God a wind an east wind hot and it struck the sun on [the] head of Jonah and he became faint and he asked life his to die and he said [is] good death my more than life my.
9 Ọlọ́run sì wí fún Jona pé, “O ha tọ́ fún ọ láti bínú nítorí ìtàkùn náà?” Òun sì wí pé, “Mo ni ẹ̀tọ́, o tọ́ fún mi láti bínú títí dé ikú.”
And he said God to Jonah ¿ rightly does it burn to you on the plant and he said rightly it burns to me to death.
10 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa wí pé, “Ìwọ kẹ́dùn ìtàkùn náà, nítorí èyí tí ìwọ kò ṣiṣẹ́ fun, tí ìwọ kò mu dàgbà; tí ó hù jáde ní òru kan tí ó sì kú ni òru kan.
And he said Yahweh you you had compassion on the plant which not you had toiled in it and not you had made grow it that a son of a night it was and a son of a night it perished.
11 Ṣùgbọ́n Ninefe ní jù ọ̀kẹ́ mẹ́fà ènìyàn nínú rẹ̀, tí wọn kò mọ ọwọ́ ọ̀tún wọn yàtọ̀ sí ti òsì, àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ohun ọ̀sìn pẹ̀lú. Ṣé èmí kò ha ní kẹ́dùn nípa ìlú ńlá náà?”
And I not will I have compassion? on Nineveh the city great which there in it [are] many more than two [plus] ten ten thousand person[s] who not he distinguishes between right [hand] his and left his and livestock much.
