約拿書 3
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1耶和華的話二次臨到 約拿 說：
1Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah a second time:
2「你起來！往 尼尼微 大城去，向其中的居民宣告我所吩咐你的話。」
2“Get up! Go to the great city of Nineveh and proclaim to it the message that I give you.”
3約拿 便照耶和華的話起來，往 尼尼微 去。這 尼尼微 是極大的城，有三日的路程。
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.
4約拿 進城走了一日，宣告說：「再等四十日， 尼尼微 必傾覆了！」
4On the first day of his journey, Jonah set out into the city and proclaimed, “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overturned!”
5尼尼微 人信服上帝，便宣告禁食，從最大的到至小的都穿麻衣。
5And the Ninevites believed God. They proclaimed a fast and dressed in sackcloth, from the greatest of them to the least.
6這信息傳到 尼尼微 王的耳中，他就下了寶座，脫下朝服，披上麻布，坐在灰中。
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.
7他又使人遍告 尼尼微 通城，說：「王和大臣有令，人不可嘗甚麼，牲畜、牛羊不可吃草，也不可喝水。
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.
8人與牲畜都當披上麻布；人要切切求告上帝。各人回頭離開所行的惡道，丟棄手中的強暴。
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.
9或者上帝轉意後悔，不發烈怒，使我們不致滅亡，也未可知。」
9Who knows? God may turn and relent; He may turn from His fierce anger, so that we will not perish.”
10於是上帝察看他們的行為，見他們離開惡道，他就後悔，不把所說的災禍降與他們了。
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.
