Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah a second time:
1耶和华的话二次临到 约拿 说：
2“Get up! Go to the great city of Nineveh and proclaim to it the message that I give you.”
2「你起来！往 尼尼微 大城去，向其中的居民宣告我所吩咐你的话。」
3This time Jonah got up and went to Nineveh, in accordance with the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, requiring a three-day journey.
3约拿 便照耶和华的话起来，往 尼尼微 去。这 尼尼微 是极大的城，有三日的路程。
4On the first day of his journey, Jonah set out into the city and proclaimed, “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overturned!”
4约拿 进城走了一日，宣告说：「再等四十日， 尼尼微 必倾覆了！」
5And the Ninevites believed God. They proclaimed a fast and dressed in sackcloth, from the greatest of them to the least.
5尼尼微 人信服 神，便宣告禁食，从最大的到至小的都穿麻衣。
6When word reached the king of Nineveh, he got up from his throne, took off his royal robe, covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
6这信息传到 尼尼微 王的耳中，他就下了宝座，脱下朝服，披上麻布，坐在灰中。
7Then he issued a proclamation in Nineveh: “By the decree of the king and his nobles: Let no man or beast, herd or flock, taste anything at all. They must not eat or drink.
7他又使人遍告 尼尼微 通城，说：「王和大臣有令，人不可尝什么，牲畜、牛羊不可吃草，也不可喝水。
8Furthermore, let both man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and have everyone call out earnestly to God. Let each one turn from his evil ways and from the violence in his hands.
8人与牲畜都当披上麻布；人要切切求告 神。各人回头离开所行的恶道，丢弃手中的强暴。
9Who knows? God may turn and relent; He may turn from His fierce anger, so that we will not perish.”
9或者 神转意后悔，不发烈怒，使我们不致灭亡，也未可知。」
10When God saw their actions—that they had turned from their evil ways—He relented from the disaster He had threatened to bring upon them.
10于是 神察看他们的行为，见他们离开恶道，他就后悔，不把所说的灾祸降与他们了。
