Neeni k'aretaynne maarotetsay kumeedda S'oossaa gidiyaawaa, hank'k'oo elleellenawaanne aggena siik'uwaan kumeeddawaa, k'ay ahana geedda iitabaakka aggiyaa S'oossaa gidiyaawaa taani kasekka eraad.BSBBSB: So he prayed to the LORD, saying, “O LORD, is this not what I said while I was still in my own country? This is why I was so quick to flee toward Tarshish. I knew that You are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion—One who relents from sending disaster.

It sprang up in a night and perished in a night.
