UJona 4
UJona uthukuthele kakhulu
1Kodwa lokho kwaba kubi kakhulu kuJona, wathukuthela kakhulu.
2Wakhuleka kuJehova, wathi: “Ngiyakuncenga, Jehova, akusikho lokho engakusho ngisezweni lakithi na? Ngalokho ngabalekela eTharishishi ngaphambili, ngokuba ngangazi ukuthi unguNkulunkulu onomusa nesihe, obhekakade, nochichima umusa, futhi uyaphenduka ebubini.
3Ngalokho, Jehova, susa ukuphila kwami kimi; ngoba kungcono kimi ukufa kulokuphila.
4Wayesethi uJehova: “Kuhle ukuthukuthela na?
5UJona wayesephuma emzini, wahlala ngasempumalanga komuzi, wazenzela idokodo, wahlala emthunzini phansi kwalo, waze wabona ukuthi kuzokwenzekani ngomuzi.
6UJehova uNkulunkulu walungisa umhlakuva, wawumisa phezu kukaJona, ukuze ube ngumthunzi phezu kwekhanda lakhe ukumkhulula osizini lwakhe. UJona wajabula kakhulu ngomhlakuva.
7Kodwa ngakusasa uNkulunkulu walungiselela isibungu, sawushaya umhlakuva waze wabuna.
8Kwathi ekuphumeni kwelanga, uNkulunkulu walungisa umoya wasempumalanga onamandla; ilanga lashaya ekhanda likaJona, waquleka, wafuna ukufa phakathi kwakhe, wathi: “Kungcono kimi ukufa kunokuphila.”
9UNkulunkulu wasesithi kuJona: Kuhle yini ukuthi uthukuthelele umhlakuva? Wathi: “Kuhle ukungithukuthelela kuze kube sekufeni.”
10Wayesethi uJehova: “Wena wawuhawukele umhlakuva, ongawusebenzelanga, ongawuyekanga ukhule; owavuka ngobusuku bunye wabhubha ngobusuku bunye;
11Mina-ke bengingayikulihawukela yini iNineve, umuzi omkhulu, okukhona kuwo abantu abangaphezu kwezinkulungwane ezingamashumi ayisithupha abangakwazi ukwahlukanisa isandla sokunene nesokhohlo; nezinkomo eziningi na?
