Jonah 3

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 The word of the LORD came to Jonah a second time:	1 Et factum est verbum Domini ad Ionam secundo dicens:
2 "Set out for the great city of Nineveh, and announce to it the message that I will tell you."	2 “ Surge, vade in Nineven civitatem magnam et praedica in ea praedicationem,quam ego loquor ad te ”.
3 So Jonah made ready and went to Nineveh, according to the LORD'S bidding. Now Nineveh was an enormously large city; it took three days to go through it.	3 Et surrexit Ionas et abiit in Nineven iuxta verbumDomini. Et Nineve erat civitas magna coram Deo, itinere trium dierum.
4 Jonah began his journey through the city, and had gone but a single day's walk announcing, "Forty days more and Nineveh shall be destroyed,"	4 Et coepit Ionasintroire in civitatem itinere diei unius; et clamavit et dixit: “ Adhucquadraginta dies, et Nineve subvertetur ”.
5 when the people of Nineveh believed God; they proclaimed a fast and all of them, great and small, put on sackcloth.	5 Et crediderunt viri Ninevitae in Deo; et praedicaverunt ieiunium et vestitisunt saccis a maiore usque ad minorem.
6 When the news reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, laid aside his robe, covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in the ashes.	6 Et pervenit verbum ad regem Nineve; etsurrexit de solio suo et abiecit pallium suum a se et indutus est sacco et seditin cinere.
7 Then he had this proclaimed throughout Nineveh, by decree of the king and his nobles: "Neither man nor beast, neither cattle nor sheep, shall taste anything; they shall not eat, nor shall they drink water.	7 Et clamavit et dixit in Nineve decreto regis et principum eiusdicens: “ Homines et iumenta et boves et pecora non gustent quidquam necpascantur et aquam non bibant;
8 Man and beast shall be covered with sackcloth and call loudly to God; every man shall turn from his evil way and from the violence he has in hand.	8 et operiantur saccis homines et iumenta etclament ad Deum in fortitudine, et convertatur vir a via sua mala et aviolentia, quae est in manibus eorum.
9 Who knows, God may relent and forgive, and withhold his blazing wrath, so that we shall not perish."	9 Quis scit si convertatur et ignoscatDeus et revertatur a furore irae suae, et non peribimus? ”.
10 When God saw by their actions how they turned from their evil way, he repented of the evil that he had threatened to do to them; he did not carry it out.	10 Et vidit Deus opera eorum, quia conversi sunt de via sua mala; et misertusest Deus super malum, quod lo cutus fuerat ut faceret eis, et non fecit.
