Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Now the LORD’s word came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,
1Sie len ah LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sel Jonah, wen natul Amittai.
2“Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach against it, for their wickedness has come up before me.”
2El fahk, “Fahla nu Nineveh, siti lulap sac, ac fahkak nu sin mwet we lah nga arulana etu lupan koluk lalos.”
3But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. He went down to Joppa, and found a ship going to Tarshish; so he paid its fare, and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.
3Tusruktu Jonah el mukuiyak ac som nu siena acn elan kaingla liki LEUM GOD . El som nu Joppa ac konauk lah oasr oak soko akola in som nu Tarshish. El molella nu fin oak uh ac sroang in som nu Tarshish, wi mwet orekma fin oak uh, in kaingla nu ke sie acn loes liki LEUM GOD .
4But the LORD sent out a great wind on the sea, and there was a mighty storm on the sea, so that the ship was likely to break up.
4Tuh LEUM GOD El supwala sie paka nu meoa, ac eng uh arulana upa pwanang oak soko ah apkuran in musalla.
5Then the mariners were afraid, and every man cried to his god. They threw the cargo that was in the ship into the sea to lighten the ship. But Jonah had gone down into the innermost parts of the ship and he was laying down, and was fast asleep.
5Selu fin oak uh tuninfongla, ac kais sie selos wowoyak in suk kasru sin god lal sifacna. Na elos sis koanon oak uh nu in meoa uh in akmulalaye oak uh. In pacl se inge Jonah el fani nu ten ac ona motul folosuwosla.
6So the ship master came to him, and said to him, “What do you mean, sleeper? Arise, call on your God! Maybe your God will notice us, so that we won’t perish.”
6Captain lun oak uh liyalak ac fahk nu sel, “Efu kom ku motul? Tukakek ac pre nu sin god lom. Sahp el ac pakomutasr ac molikutla.”
7They all said to each other, “Come! Let’s cast lots, that we may know who is responsible for this evil that is on us.” So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah.
7Na selu ah fahk nu sin sie sin sie, “Wona kut in susfa in konauk lah su pwanma mwe fosrnga inge nu sesr uh.” Elos orala fa uh, na inel Jonah fwacfeyak.
8Then they asked him, “Tell us, please, for whose cause this evil is on us. What is your occupation? Where do you come from? What is your country? Of what people are you?”
8Na elos fahk nu sel, “Mea kom oru inge uh? Kom tuku ya me? Kom mwet ya? Ya kom pa pwanang ma sikyak inge uh?”
9He said to them, “I am a Hebrew, and I fear the LORD, the God of heaven, who has made the sea and the dry land.”
9Jonah el topuk, “Nga mwet Hebrew. Nga alu nu sin LEUM GOD , God inkusrao, su orala acn ac meoa uh.”
10Then the men were exceedingly afraid, and said to him, “What have you done?” For the men knew that he was fleeing from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them.
10Jonah el fahk pac nu selos lah el kaing liki LEUM GOD . Mwet fin oak uh arulana sangengla ac fahk nu sel, “Ma na koluk se pa kom oru ingan!”
11Then they said to him, “What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm to us?” For the sea grew more and more stormy.
11Ac ke paka uh sifilpa upala liki meet ah, mwet fin oak uh siyuk sel, “Mea kut ac oru nu sum in kutongya paka uh?”
12He said to them, “Take me up, and throw me into the sea. Then the sea will be calm for you; for I know that because of me this great storm is on you.”
12Jonah el topuk, “Sisyula nu in meoa uh na ac fah mihsi. Nga etu lah nga pa pwanang kowos sun eng na upa se inge.”
13Nevertheless the men rowed hard to get them back to the land; but they could not, for the sea grew more and more stormy against them.
13Elos tia sisella, a elos srike na ke kuiyalos in kalang nu weacn uh, tuh elos tia ku mweyen paka uh upala liki na meet.
14Therefore they cried to the LORD, and said, “We beg you, LORD, we beg you, don’t let us die for this man’s life, and don’t lay on us innocent blood; for you, LORD, have done as it pleased you.”
14Na elos wowoyak nu sin LEUM GOD ac fahk, “O LEUM GOD , kut siyuk, nikmet eisla moul lasr ke kut ac eisla moul lun mwet se inge! Kom, O LEUM GOD , pa pwanang ma inge nukewa. Ma inge kut ac oru fal nu ke lungse lom.”
15So they took up Jonah and threw him into the sea; and the sea ceased its raging.
15Na elos sraklalak Jonah ac sisella nu in meoa, na eng uh tui in kitin pacl ah na.
16Then the men feared the LORD exceedingly; and they offered a sacrifice to the LORD and made vows.
16Ma se inge oru mwet fin oak uh arulana sangeng sin LEUM GOD , pwanang elos oru sie mwe kisa nu sin LEUM GOD , ac wulela mu elos ac kulansap nu sel.
17The LORD prepared a huge fish to swallow up Jonah, and Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
17Ac LEUM GOD El oru tuh soko ik lulap in okomulla Jonah, ac el muta insien ik soko ah ke len tolu ac fong tolu.
