1Amittai tapa Jona kiangah TOUPA thu a hongtunga,
1Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,
2Thou inla, Ninevi kua, khopi thupi takah hoh inla, a tung thu kikou pih in; a gitlouhna uh ka maah a hongtung touta ngala, chiin.
2Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.
3Himahleh Jona bel TOUPA maa kipan Tarsis ah tai mang dingin a thou a; huan, Joppa khuaah a hoh suka, Tarsis juan ding long a mua; huchiin, atuan man a piaa, TOUPA maa kipan Tarsis juan dingte toh hoh dingin longah a lut suk hi.
3But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD, and went down to Joppa; and he found a ship going to Tarshish: so he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with them unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.
4Himahleh TOUPAN huih hat mahmah tuipi ah a nungsaka, tuipi ah huihpi hat mahmah a nunga, huchiin, long kitam ding bangin a om ta hi.
4But the LORD sent out a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken.
5Huan, long miten a lau ua, amau Pathian a sam chiat ua; log janna dingin long sunga vante tuipi ah a pai khia uhi. Jona bel long sunggil penah na lutkhinsa ahia; a luma, a nakiitmut bawl a.
5Then the mariners were afraid, and cried every man unto his god, and cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to lighten it of them. But Jonah was gone down into the sides of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep.
6Huchiin long heutu a kiangah a honga, Aw nang ihmu, bang chidan ahia? thou inla, na Pathian samin, Pathianin, i manlouhna dingin a hongngaihtuah khamoh dia, a chi a.
6So the shipmaster came to him, and said unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeper? arise, call upon thy God, if so be that God will think upon us, that we perish not.
7Huan, Khai, hiai thil hoihlou i tung ua hongom kua jiak ahia chih i theihna dingin, ai i san ding, chiin a kihou ua. Huchiin, ai a san ua, aisan Jona tungah a keta hi.
7And they said every one to his fellow, Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is upon us. So they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonah.
8Huchiin, a kiang ah, Hiai thil hoih lou i tung ua om kua jiak ahia, hon hilhin, ka hon ngen uh; na nasep bang ahia? koi akipana hong na hia? koi lam gama mi na hia? bang nam mi na hia? a chi ua.
8Then said they unto him, Tell us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evil is upon us; What is thine occupation? and whence comest thou? what is thy country? and of what people art thou?
9Aman a kiang uah, Hebru mi ka hi; tuipi leh gam bawlpa TOUPA, van Pathian ka lau ahi, a chi a.
9And he said unto them, I am an Hebrew; and I fear the LORD, the God of heaven, which hath made the sea and the dry land.
10Huan, miten a kihta mahmah ua, a kiangah, Bangdia hiai bang na hih na hia? a chi ua a hilhkhitsa a hih jiakin miten lah TOUPA maa kipana taimang ahi chih a natheita ngal ua.
10Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said unto him. Why hast thou done this? For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them.
11Huchiin, a kiangah, Kou dia tuipi a kihoh louhna dingin na tungah bang ka hih ding ua? a chi ua, tuipi lah a kihot sang hulhul ngal a.
11Then said they unto him, What shall we do unto thee, that the sea may be calm unto us? for the sea wrought, and was tempestuous.
12Huan, aman a kiang uah, Hondom kang unla, tuipi ah hon lawn khia un; huchiin tuipi nou adingin a kihot nawn kei ding; kei jiakin na tunguah hiai huihpi thupitak a nung ahi chih lah ka thei ngala, a chi a.
12And he said unto them, Take me up, and cast me forth into the sea; so shall the sea be calm unto you: for I know that for my sake this great tempest is upon you.
13Himahleh miten gama kik dingin nakpiin a kal ua; ahihhangin a hithei kei: tuipi lah a tunguah a nak kihoh semsem ngala.
13Nevertheless the men rowed hard to bring it to the land; but they could not: for the sea wrought, and was tempestuous against them.
14Huaijiakin TOUPA a sam ua, AW TOUPA, hiai mipa hinna jiakin honhihmang ken la, mi hioh sisan moh ka tung ua nga mahmah lou dingin nakpi takin ka honngen uh, ka honngen uh: TOUPA, nang na deih banga na hih ahi ngala a chi ua.
14Wherefore they cried unto the LORD, and said, We beseech thee, O LORD, we beseech thee, let us not perish for this man's life, and lay not upon us innocent blood: for thou, O LORD, hast done as it pleased thee.
15Huchiin Jona a dom kang ua, tuipi ah a lawn kheta uh: huan, tuipi kihawt phul vonvon a daita hi.
15So they look up Jonah, and cast him forth into the sea: and the sea ceased from her raging.
16Huchiin, miten TOUPA nakpi takin a lau ua; TOUPA kiangah kithoihna a lan ua, thute achiamta uhi.Huan, TOUPAN Jona valh dingin nga lian tak a nasep khina; huia nga gilsungah Jona ni thum leh jan thum a om.
16Then the men feared the LORD exceedingly, and offered a sacrifice unto the LORD, and made vows.
17Huan, TOUPAN Jona valh dingin nga lian tak a nasep khina; huia nga gilsungah Jona ni thum leh jan thum a om.
17Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
