Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Now the word of the Lord came to Jonas the son of Amathi, saying:
1耶和华的话临到 亚米太 的儿子 约拿 ，说：
2Arise, and go to Ninive the great city, and preach in it: for the wickedness thereof is come up before me.
2「你起来往 尼尼微 大城去，向其中的居民呼喊，因为他们的恶达到我面前。」
3And Jonas rose up to flee into Tharsis from the face of the Lord, and he went down to Joppe, and found a ship going to Tharsis: and he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with them to Tharsis from the face of the Lord.
3约拿 却起来，逃往 他施 去躲避耶和华；下到 约帕 ，遇见一只船，要往 他施 去。他就给了船价，上了船，要与船上的人同往 他施 去躲避耶和华。
4But the Lord sent a great wind into the sea: and a great tempest was raised in the sea, and the ship was in danger to be broken.
4然而耶和华使海中起大风，海就狂风大作，甚至船几乎破坏。
5And the mariners were afraid, and the men cried to their god: and they cast forth the wares that were in the ship, into the sea, to lighten it of them: and Jonas went down into the inner part of the ship, and fell into a deep sleep.
5水手便惧怕，各人哀求自己的神。他们将船上的货物抛在海中，为要使船轻些。 约拿 已下到底舱，躺卧沉睡。
6And the shipmaster came to him, and said to him: Why art thou fast asleep? rise up, call upon thy God, if so be that God will think of us, that we may not perish.
6船主到他那里对他说：「你这沉睡的人哪，为何这样呢？起来，求告你的神，或者神顾念我们，使我们不致灭亡。」
7And they said every one to his fellow: Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know why this evil is upon us. And they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonas.
7船上的人彼此说：「来吧，我们掣签，看看这灾临到我们是因谁的缘故。」于是他们掣签，掣出 约拿 来。
8And they said to him: Tell us for what cause this evil is upon us, what is thy business? of what country art thou? and whither goest thou? or of what people art thou?
8众人对他说：「请你告诉我们，这灾临到我们是因谁的缘故？你以何事为业？你从哪里来？你是哪一国？属哪一族的人？」
9And he said to them: I am a Hebrew, and I fear the Lord the God of heaven, who made both the sea and the dry land.
9他说：「我是 希伯来 人。我敬畏耶和华—那创造沧海旱地之天上的 神。」
10And the men were greatly afraid, and they said to him: Why hast thou done this? (for the men knew that he fled from the face of the Lord: because he had told them.)
10他们就大大惧怕，对他说：「你做的是什么事呢？」他们已经知道他躲避耶和华，因为他告诉了他们。
11And they said to him: What shall we do to thee, that the sea may be calm to us? for the sea flowed and swelled.
11他们问他说：「我们当向你怎样行，使海浪平静呢？」这话是因海浪越发翻腾。
12And he said to them: Take me up, and cast me into the sea, and the sea shall be calm to you: for I know that for my sake this great tempest is upon you.
12他对他们说：「你们将我抬起来，抛在海中，海就平静了；我知道你们遭这大风是因我的缘故。」
13And the men rowed hard to return to land, but they were not able: because the sea tossed and swelled upon them.
13然而那些人竭力荡桨，要把船拢岸，却是不能，因为海浪越发向他们翻腾。
14And they cried to the Lord, and said: We beseech thee, O Lord, 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.
14他们便求告耶和华说：「耶和华啊，我们恳求你，不要因这人的性命使我们死亡，不要使流无辜血的罪归与我们；因为你—耶和华是随自己的意旨行事。」
15And they took Jonas, and cast him into the sea, and the sea ceased from raging.
15他们遂将 约拿 抬起，抛在海中，海的狂浪就平息了。
16And the men feared the Lord exceedingly, and sacrificed victims to the Lord, and made vows.
16那些人便大大敬畏耶和华，向耶和华献祭，并且许愿。
