1. 1OMBNge i Jona hateve u havuhevu me nge mo mero.BSBBSB: Jonah, however, was greatly displeased, and he became angry.
2. 2OMBNge mo tataro lawe Huqe, “?O Huqe nge ngaha hi nau vevea tavohe namo tino tau lo tanongu? Giniehi neu nau veie tomue vena nain toa nain vano Tasis. Huri nau ilo huri vena nigo a Huqe Mauri gu vaigarea lawe na nomu tavului vuro, me gu hahagavi, gom mero rorongo, nge a nom vaigarea u lawua liu, siu nigo goi vei lei vena goi dori na domimu vena goi mese arahi na tangaloi.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.
3. 3OMBSiu Huqe, gon lai vohogi na nongu mwasoana deni eu, u garea huri vena nan mate denie hi ve nain toga mwaso.”BSBBSB: And now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
4. 4OMBSiu, i Huqe mo veve vena, “?U garea huri vena goin mero?”BSBBSB: But the LORD replied, “Have you any right to be angry?”
5. 5OMBJona mo mwalua me mo toga lo ute suvohi na matenaho mo kalo dena vanue renge. Ngeie mo vai na nona siusiu, me mo toga lolo vavagi me mo leo huri vena havagi vin veiana lawe na vanue renge.BSBBSB: Then Jonah left the city and sat down east of it, where he made himself a shelter and sat in its shade to see what would happen to the city.
6. 6OMBMe i Huqe Gogona mo veve vena, nain rivu na kasrael siu vin meuri vin hage lo ului Jona vin mamalu goro na qwatune, ngeie na mese romasi, nge na rongareagi na kasrael hi mena havusie.BSBBSB: So the LORD God appointed a vine, and it grew up to provide shade over Jonah’s head to ease his discomfort, and Jonah was greatly pleased with the plant.
7. 7OMBNge i Huqe Mauri u hora na nuve lolo robongi a nuve hinge u geni na kasrael hi mo goru.BSBBSB: When dawn came the next day, God appointed a worm that attacked the plant so that it withered.
8. 8OMBSiu tavohe a matenaho mo kalo, i Huqe Mauri mo hora na langi mwamwavi mo vumai lo matenaho kalo, mo aho talo qatui Jona vava a nago dodo mo vaie. Me ngeie mo hui Huqe Mauri, huri na nona mwasoana vena ngeie na mate, “U garea denie hinge ve nan toga mwaso.”BSBBSB: As the sun was rising, God appointed a scorching east wind, and the sun beat down on Jonah’s head so that he grew faint and wished to die, saying, “It is better for me to die than to live.”
9. 9OMBSiu i Huqe Mauri mo veve lawe Jona vena, “?U garea huri vena nigo goin mero huri na kasrael hi?” Me ngeie mo veve vena, “Io, u garea ve neu nan mate.”BSBBSB: Then God asked Jonah, “Have you any right to be angry about the plant?” “I do,” he replied. “I am angry enough to die!”
10. 10OMBI Huqe mo veve, “Nigo gom romasi huri na kasrael hinge nigo hateve gu veie vena mauri na lawoa. Nge u meuri lolo bongi siu mo mate lolo bongi.BSBBSB: But the LORD said, “You cared about the plant, which you neither tended nor made grow. It sprang up in a night and perished in a night.
11. 11OMB?Siu neu nain mese romasi huri na vanue lawoa Niniva ngehi? A tangaloigi rau sao liue na teri vatugi vudolue avigi ngavulu geirue. I ngere rau haroe huri ve a limara matue ngehi logo, a mawiri ngehi logo. Siu a kankarue u sao vage.”BSBBSB: So should I not care about the great city of Nineveh, which has more than 120,000 people who cannot tell their right hand from their left, and many cattle as well?”
