1But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry.
1To je Jona jako bolelo in se je jezil.
2He prayed to Yahweh, and said, “Please, Yahweh, wasn’t this what I said when I was still in my own country? Therefore I hurried to flee to Tarshish, for I knew that you are a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and you relent of doing harm.
2In molil je h GOSPODU in rekel: Ah, GOSPOD, ni li to bila moja beseda, ko sem bil še v deželi svoji? Da se ognem temu, zato sem zbežal v Tarsis, kajti vedel sem, da si Bog mogočni milostljiv in poln usmiljenja, počasen za jezo in obilen v milosti in ti je žal hudega.
3Therefore now, Yahweh, take, I beg you, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.”
3In sedaj, GOSPOD, prosim, vzemi dušo mojo od mene, ker mi je bolje umreti nego živeti.
4Yahweh said, “Is it right for you to be angry?”
4GOSPOD pa reče: Je li prav, da se jeziš?
5Then Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made himself a booth, and sat under it in the shade, until he might see what would become of the city.
5In Jona je šel ven iz mesta in je sedel ob vzhodu mestu nasproti. In ondi si napravi senčnico in sedi pod njo v senci, da bi videl, kaj se zgodi z mestom.
6Yahweh God prepared a vine, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shade over his head, to deliver him from his discomfort. So Jonah was exceedingly glad because of the vine.
6In GOSPOD, Bog, pripravi kloščevino in stori, da zraste nad Jonom, da mu bode senca nad glavo in ga reši slabe volje. In Jona se veseli kloščevine z velikim veseljem.
7But God prepared a worm at dawn the next day, and it chewed on the vine, so that it withered.
7Drugi dan pa ob zori pripravi Bog črva, ki je izpodjedel kloščevino, da je usahnila.
8It happened, when the sun arose, that God prepared a sultry east wind; and the sun beat on Jonah’s head, so that he fainted, and requested for himself that he might die, and said, “It is better for me to die than to live.”
8In zgodi se ob solnčnem vzhodu, da pripravi Bog suh vzhodni veter; in solnce je peklo Jona v glavo, da je obnemogel. In želel je smrti duši svoji in rekel: Bolje mi je umreti nego živeti.
9God said to Jonah, “Is it right for you to be angry about the vine?” He said, “I am right to be angry, even to death.”
9Bog pa reče Jonu: Je li prav, da se jeziš zavoljo kloščevine? In odgovori: Prav je, da se jezim do smrti!
10Yahweh said, “You have been concerned for the vine, for which you have not labored, neither made it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night.
10GOSPOD pa reče: Tebi se smili kloščevina, za katero se nisi trudil in je nisi vzredil, ki je eno noč postala in eno noč poginila:in meni naj se ne smili Niniv, mesta velikega, v katerem je več nego stoindvajset tisoč ljudi, ki ne vedo razločka med desnico in levico svojo, in toliko živine!
11Shouldn’t I be concerned for Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than one hundred twenty thousand persons who can’t discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also much livestock?”
11in meni naj se ne smili Niniv, mesta velikega, v katerem je več nego stoindvajset tisoč ljudi, ki ne vedo razločka med desnico in levico svojo, in toliko živine!
