Yona 3 - Bibliya Yera 1951 1967 (Burundi)

Yona abūrira ab’i Ninewe; baca barihana

¹ Maz’ ijambo ry’Uhoraho rija kuri Yona ubugira kabiri, riramubarira,

² riti Va hasi uje i Ninewe, ca gisagara kinini, ukibūrire imbūri nzokubgira.

³ Nuko Yona ava hasi aja i Ninewe, nk’ ukw ijambo ry’ Uhoraho rivuze. Kandi Ninewe car’ igisagara kinini c’agahebuza, kugikikuza rwar’ urugendo rw’ imisi itatu.

⁴ Yona atangura kuja mu gisagara agenda urugendo rw’umusi umwe; arasemerera, ati Hasigaye imisi mirongwine, Ninewe hagakomvomvorwa.

⁵ Maz’ abantu b’i Ninewe bemera Imana, bashinga ngo habeho kwisonzesha, baca bambara amagunira, uhereye k’ūhambaye ugashitsa kuri nyarucari hanyuma y’abandi.

⁶ Inkuru zishika ku mwami w’i Ninewe, ahaguruka ku ntebe yiwe yiyambura imyambaro yiwe, yambara igunira, yicara mu munyota.

⁷ Agera ko bamamaza i Ninewe icagezwe ciwe n’ic’ abaganwa biwe, ngo Ntihagire umuntu agira ico atamira, n’ibitunzwe n’uko, vy’amasho n’imikuku, ntihagire ico birya cank’ amazi binywa;

⁸ arikw abantu ni bambare amagunira, n’ibitunzwe babiyapfuke, baheze bambaze Imana bakobeje, kandi bahindukire, umuntu wese areke inzira yiwe mbi, bareke n’umuryano uri muri bo.

⁹ Nta wubizi: kumbure Imana yohindukira, ikīgarura, ikareka uburake bgayo bg’inkazi, ntiduhone.

¹⁰ Maz’ Imana ibona ibikorwa vyabo, ingene bahindukiye, bakareka inzira yabo mbi; nukw Imana irīgarura ngo ntibatēze ivyago yari yabagereye, ntiyabibatēza.
