1. 1VIDMbuli ayo haiwele goya kwa Yona ne hado, nakazudila ng'hatu.BSBBSB: Jonah, however, was greatly displeased, and he became angry.
2. 2VIDAhyo nakalanda yolonga, “Mkulu Nguluwi, ndaze, azi haziwele mbuli zizila zombele ndijesa londiwele kaye, kota kozidita? Ndo mina nandita himahima kubilimila Talishishi. Nandivizela kota hegwe ndo Nguluwi wa igano lya kwimilila ng'hatu na isungu na hulinguzudila himahima. Mazuwa gose kwa unojile na kwa goya kugalula kunuwila kwa hegwe mhela woneche leka uleche kugaza.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. 3VIDLelo Mkulu Nguluwi ndangukudedeza wuse ukomu wa heni, kwa vila kwa heni fola kubagama kusinda kikala.”BSBBSB: And now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
4. 4VIDMkulu Nguluwi nakamlonjela Yona, “Kwangijesa kwangudita goya kuzudila?”BSBBSB: But the LORD replied, “Have you any right to be angry?”
5. 5VIDAhyo Yona nakalawa mgati mwa muji na kikalisa ubanzi wa kolilawilaga isanya mwa muji. Nakazenga chibumuli na kikalisa kuli lubehelo lwa chibumuli acho kuno yobeteza chochilawila kuli muji wa Ninawi.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. 6VIDNguluwi, Mkulu Nguluwi nakalajiza izuchila lizuche na kukula. Nakamha Yona lubehelo lwa kugubika mutwi wa heye leka kumusila magazo goyawele nago. Yona nakasangalala lukami kwa chiwalo cha lubehelo lwa izuchila alyo.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. 7VIDLelo zuwa lya keli lokubwemwenzuche, Nguluwi nakalajiza lung'hwawa iwifye izuchila alyo, hamba izuchila alyo naliswina.BSBBSB: When dawn came the next day, God appointed a worm that attacked the plant so that it withered.
8. 8VIDIsanya vyolilawile, Nguluwi nakegala mbeho ya ivuche kulawa kolilawilaga isanya, isanya nalimlakaza lukami Yona kumutwi, habehi kubagama. Yona nakalonga, “Fola kubagama kusinda kikala.”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. 9VIDLelo Nguluwi nakamlonjela Yona, “Ndaze, kwangona kwangudita goya kulizudila izuchila alyo?” Yona nakedichila, “Ena, ndangudita goya kuzudila, kuzudila mbaka kubagama.”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. 10VIDMkulu Nguluwi nakamlonjela Yona, “Izuchila ali nalizuka na kukula kwa nechilo imwe, nechilo iyage naliswina. Hegwe hauliditile chinhu choneche ne kulidita izuchila lizuche, lekachoni kwangulyonela isungu?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. 11VIDNdaze, haiwele goya heni kuwonela isungu muji wa Ninawi, wula muji ukulu uwele na wanhu lachi imwe na elufu makumi meli (120,000), wawele hawawezile kutang'hula linojile ne lihile, hamwe na migongolo minji?”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?”
