Jonah 3
Maori Bible
3 Na ka puta tuarua mai te kupu a Ihowa ki a Hona, i mea ia,
2 Whakatika, haere ki Ninewe, ki taua pa nui, kauwhautia hoki ki reira te kauwhau e korerotia e ahau ki a koe.
3 Na whakatika ana a Hona, haere ana ki Ninewe, pera ana me ta Ihowa i korero ai. Na he pa nui rawa a Ninewe, e toru nga ra e haerea ai.
4 Na ka timata ta Hona haere ki roto ki te pa, kotahi te ra i haere ai, kei te karanga, kei te mea, Kia wha tekau ake nga ra, ka hurihia a Ninewe.
5 A whakapono tonu nga tangata o Ninewe ki ta te Atua; karangatia ana e ratou he nohopuku, he taratara o ratou kakahu, o nga mea rarahi o ratou tae rawa iho ki nga mea ririki.
6 Na ka tae he korero ki te kingi o Ninewe, a whakatika ana ia i runga i tona torona, whakarerea atu ana e ia tona koroka, kei te hipoki i a ia ki te kakahu taratara, noho ana i roto i te pungarehu.
7 I meinga ano e ia kia karangatia te korero i roto i Ninewe, he mea whakatakoto na te kingi ratou ko ana metararahi, i mea ia, Kaua te tangata, te kararehe ranei, te kau ranei, te hipi ranei e pa ki tetahi aha: kaua ratou e kai, e inu wai ranei:
8 Engari kia hipokina te tangata me te kararehe ki te kakahu taratara, kia kaha ano ta ratou karanga ki te Atua: ae ra, kia hoki ano nga tangata i tona ara kino, i tona ara kino, i te tutu ano o o ratou ringa.
9 Ko wai ka tohu tera pea te Atua ka tahuri, a ka puta ke tona whakaaro, ka tahuri atu hoki i te muranga o tona riri, a e kore tatou e ngaro?
10 A ka kite te Atua i a ratou mahi, kua tahuri atu ratou i to ratou ara kino; na ka puta ke te whakaaro o te Atua mo te kino i kiia e ia kia meatia ki a ratou; a kihai i meatia e ia.

Jonah Goes to Nineveh
3 Then the word of the Lord came to Jonah(A) a second time: 2 “Go to the great city of Nineveh and proclaim to it the message I give you.”
3 Jonah obeyed the word of the Lord and went to Nineveh. Now Nineveh was a very large city; it took three days to go through it. 4 Jonah began by going a day’s journey into the city, proclaiming,(B) “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overthrown.” 5 The Ninevites believed God. A fast was proclaimed, and all of them, from the greatest to the least, put on sackcloth.(C)
6 When Jonah’s warning reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, took off his royal robes, covered himself with sackcloth and sat down in the dust.(D) 7 This is the proclamation he issued in Nineveh:
“By the decree of the king and his nobles:
Do not let people or animals, herds or flocks, taste anything; do not let them eat or drink.(E) 8 But let people and animals be covered with sackcloth. Let everyone call(F) urgently on God. Let them give up(G) their evil ways(H) and their violence.(I) 9 Who knows?(J) God may yet relent(K) and with compassion turn(L) from his fierce anger(M) so that we will not perish.”
10 When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he relented(N) and did not bring on them the destruction(O) he had threatened.(P)
