¹But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry.

¹Incßaß quicuulac chiru laj Jonás nak li Dios incßaß quixrahobtesiheb laj Nínive. Cßajoß nak quipoß.

²And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O LORD, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.

²Joßcan nak quitijoc chiru li Dios ut quixye re: —At Kâcuaß, ¿ma mâcuaß ta biß aßin quincßoxla nak toj cuanquin chak saß lin tenamit? Joßcan nak quinêlelic raj châcuu ut côin raj Tarsis. Ninnau nak lâat jun Dios nim âcuyum. Nacat-uxtânan u ut nacattokßoban u. Elajic nacatjoskßoß ut incßaß nacabânu li raylal li nacacßoxla xbânunquil.

³Therefore now, O LORD, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.

³Joßcan nak nintzßâma châcuu, at Kâcuaß, chinâcuisi saß ruchichßochß xban nak kßaxal us chokß cue li câmc chiru nak yoßyôkin, chan laj Jonás.

⁴Then said the LORD, Doest thou well to be angry?

⁴Ut li Dios quixye re: —¿Ma nacacßoxla nak us nacabânu nak nacatpoß?—

⁵So Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made him a booth, and sat under it in the shadow, till he might see what would become of the city.

⁵Ut qui-el chak laj Jonás saß li tenamit Nínive ut quixyîb jun lix chßina muhebâl saß relebâl sakße chire li tenamit. Tojoßnak quicßojla saß lix muhebâl, roybeninquil cßaß na ru tixcßul li tenamit.

⁶And the LORD God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him from his grief. So Jonah was exceeding glad of the gourd.

⁶Ut li Dios quixqßue chi qßuîc jun tôn li cßum. Quichamoß ut quixhel rib saß xbên xmuhebâl laj Jonás re nak tâhilânk saß mu ut re nak tânumekß lix chßißchßißil. Ut laj Jonás cßajoß nak quisahoß saß xchßôl riqßuin li jun tôn chi cßum.

⁷But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd that it withered.

⁷Joß cuulajak chic nak yô chi sakêuc quixtakla jun li motzoß li Dios re tixcßux lix tônal li cßum. Ut li cßum quichakic.

⁸And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God prepared a vehement east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.

⁸Ut nak quitikcuoß li sakße, li Dios quixtakla chak jun li tikcual ikß yô chi châlc saß releb sakße. Ut laj Jonás quicßateß xban li sakße ut quichal xlubic. Qui-oc xtzßâmanquil xcamic ut quixye: —Kßaxal us raj chokß cue li câmc chiru nak yoßyôkin arin saß ruchichßochß, chan.

⁹And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, even unto death.

⁹Ut li Kâcuaß Dios quixye re: —¿Ma nacacßoxla nak us nacabânu nak nacatpoß xban nak xchakic li cßum? chan li Dios re. Ut laj Jonás quichakßoc ut quixye: —Yâl. Us ninbânu nak ninjoskßoß. Cuan xyâlal nak ninpoß toj retal nacuaj raj câmc, chan.

¹⁰Then said the LORD, Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for the which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:

¹⁰Ut li Dios quixye re: —Lâat ra xacuecßa nak xchakic li jun tôn chi cßum li moco xatcßanjelac ta re raubal, chi moco lâat ta xatqßuehoc re chi mokc. Chiru jun kßojyîn quichamoß ut chiru jun kßojyîn quichakic.Cui ra xacuecßa nak xchakic li jun tôn chi cßum, ¿ma tojaß ta chic lâin incßaß tincuil xtokßobâl ruheb li tenamit Nínive? Saß li tenamit aßan cuan numenak cuakcßâl mil chi cristian ut eb aßan incßaß nequeßxnau xqßuebal retal bar cuan li us ut bar cuan li incßaß us. Ut cuanqueb ajcuiß nabal li xul. ¿Ma incßaß ta biß us xtokßobanquil ru li tenamit aßan? chan li Dios.

¹¹And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more then sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also much cattle?

¹¹Cui ra xacuecßa nak xchakic li jun tôn chi cßum, ¿ma tojaß ta chic lâin incßaß tincuil xtokßobâl ruheb li tenamit Nínive? Saß li tenamit aßan cuan numenak cuakcßâl mil chi cristian ut eb aßan incßaß nequeßxnau xqßuebal retal bar cuan li us ut bar cuan li incßaß us. Ut cuanqueb ajcuiß nabal li xul. ¿Ma incßaß ta biß us xtokßobanquil ru li tenamit aßan? chan li Dios.
