2. 2SAVA woosa Nikiɗi : « Eey Nikiɗi, ina ŋ woyee wa ŋ nikoh ŋ kur ɓoo weɗi wii haa e ? E ineem tahee po ŋ ɗeɓgohha saandoh Tarsis ; ŋ inhangangeen ne, fu Koohi na baahohe, yi na yirmohe, yi yooɓɗi ayruk, yi riif na waaɗohaaɗ te inwaaso na ambee ɗa amb ŋ tum miskiɗ.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. 3SAVTeemb ndii, Nikiɗi, ɓaya kiñin kiŋ ngo, laam nga so, ŋ kaan ngisoh ŋ pes. »BSBBSB: And now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”

A kiimmba kaan, a woosa ne : « Ŋ kaan ngisoh ŋ pes. »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. 9SAVKooh meekissa Yunus : « Fu yii ŋ keeh weem oo, na ayruki ŋ ini na kidgii ? » A loffa : « Ee di' ! Ñam ɓur, ŋ ayruk po ŋ hee kaane. »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!”
