1 U Mwene akamubuzya sona u Yona akati,
abalaghuzi abavula intazi, bakalaghula nizya bwite, nintamyo impalapala sona ni chiwaya vivyo vikwiza pakuziwila inko inyinji sona nu bumwene ubumanyikwe nkani.
Inkalamu yabuluma, nkimba wewenu atanganyila? U Mwene Uwamaka Ghosi anena, nkimba wewenu yuyo atangalaghula?
Isiku limo u Mwene akamubuzya u Yona umwana uwa Amitayi akati,
Po u Mwene akayilamula iswi yila ukuti yimutapikile u Yona pisila ilya nyanja.
“Bukagha ku Ninive, kukaya akakulu nkani kala, pakulumbilila amazyu ghagho nkukubuzya.”
