Yona atumwa i Ninewe; yanse kujayo, amirwa n’urufi

¹ Ijambo ry’Uhoraho ryaje kuri Yona mwene Amitayi, riramubgira,

² riti Va hasi uje i Ninewe, ca gisagara kinini, ukibūrire; kukw ivyaha vy’abaho vyarundanye, bigashika imbere yanje.

³ Ariko Yona ava hasi ngw ahungire Uhoraho i Tarushishi, ave mu nyonga ziwe. Amanuka i Yopa, abona ubgato buja i Tarushishi: atanga ikibuguro, atambukira muri bgo, ngw ajane n’abagiye i Tarushishi, ave mu nyonga z’Uhoraho.

⁴ Maz’ Uhoraho asuka umuyaga ukomeye mu kiyaga; haba igihuhuta c’inkomezi mu kiyaga, ubgato bushaka kumeneka.

⁵ Abasoza baratinya, umuntu wese yambaza imana yiwe; baterera mu kiyaga ibintu vyari mu bgato ngo baburemurure. Ariko Yona we yari yamanutse mu gafuruka ko mu bgato gahera epfo, yigaramiye yisinziriye.

⁶ Nuk’ umukuru w’ubgato aja ah’ ari, aramubaza, ati Wabaye ute ga wa gikazatiro we? Vyuka wambaze Imana yawe; kumbure Imana yodusubizak’ umutima, ntidupfe.

⁷ Bose baravugana, bati Ni muze dupfinde, tumenye ūtumye duterwa ibi vyago uw’ari we. Nuko barapfinda, ubupfindo bgerekana Yona.

⁸ Baca baramubaza, bat’ Enda utubarire ūtumye duterwa ibi vyago; ukora igikorwa ki? ur’ uwa hehe? ur’ uwo mu kihe gihugu? ur’ ubgoko ki?

⁹ Arabishura, ati Nd’ Umuheburayo, nubaha Uhoraho, Imana Nyen’ ijuru, yaremye ikiyaga n’i musozi.

¹⁰ Maz’ abo bantu bafatwa n’ubgoba bginshi, baramubaza, bat’ Ivyo ukoze ibi n’ibiki? Kukw abo bantu bāri bamenye kw ahunze Uhoraho, kuko yari yabibabgiye.

¹¹ Baramubaza, bati Tukugire dute, ngw ikiyaga kitureke, kibe agahwekere? Kukw ikiyaga ciyongeranya gusuriranya.

¹² Arabishura, ati Ni munterure, munte mu kiyaga, ni ho ikiyaga cobabera agahwekere; kuko nzi yukw iki gihuhuta c’inkomezi kibahōra jewe.

¹³ Arikw abo bantu barushiriza gusoza ngo bagaruke hakuno i musozi, ntibābishobora, kukw ikiyaga ciyongeranya gusuriranya, kirabananira.

¹⁴ Ni co catumye batakambira Uhoraho, bati Turakwinginze, ewe Uhoraho, twoye gupfa tuzira ubugingo bg’uyu muntu, kandi ntuduharūrekw amaraso y’ūdafise igicumuro, kuko wewe, Uhoraho, ukoze ico ugomvye.

¹⁵ Nuko baterura Yona, bamuta mu kiyaga; ikiyaga kireka gusuriranya.

¹⁶ Maz’ abo bantu baca batinya Uhoraho bihebuje; bamuha ikimazi, bamusezeranira amasezerano.

¹⁷ Uhoraho agera urufi runini ngo rumire Yona. Maze Yona amara mu nda y’urufi imisi itatu n’amajoro atatu.
