Jona 1

Biblija Hrvatski	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Riječ Jahvina dođe Joni, sinu Amitajevu:	1 Now the word of the Lord came to Jonas the son of Amathi, saying:
2 »Ustani«, reče mu, »idi u Ninivu, grad veliki, i propovijedaj u njemu, jer se zloća njihova popela do mene.«	2 Arise, and go to Ninive the great city, and preach in it: for the wickedness thereof is come up before me.
3 A Jona ustade da pobjegne u Taršiš, daleko od Jahve. Siđe u Jafu i nađe lađu što je plovila u Taršiš. Plati vozarinu i ukrca se da otplovi s njima u Taršiš, daleko od Jahve.	3 And Jonas rose up to flee into Tharsis from the face of the Lord, and he went down to Joppe, and found a ship going to Tharsis: and he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with them to Tharsis from the face of the Lord.
4 Ali Jahve podiže na moru silan vjetar i nastade nevrijeme veliko na moru te mišljahu da će se lađa razbiti.	4 But the Lord sent a great wind into the sea: and a great tempest was raised in the sea, and the ship was in danger to be broken.
5 Uplašiše se mornari; svaki zazva svoga boga, i da bi je olakšali, stadoše iz lađe bacati tovar što bijaše u njoj. Jona pak bijaše sišao na dno lađe, legao i zaspao tvrdim snom.	5 And the mariners were afraid, and the men cried to their god: and they cast forth the wares that were in the ship, into the sea, to lighten it of them: and Jones went down into the inner part of the ship, and fell into a deep sleep.
6 Zapovjednik lađe pristupi mu i reče: »Što spavaš kao zaklan? Ustaj i prizivlji Boga svojega! Možda će nas se sjetiti bog taj da ne poginemo.«	6 And the shipmaster came to him, and said to him: Why art thou fast asleep? rise up, call upon thy God, if so be that God will think of us, that we may not perish.
7 Potom rekoše jedni drugima: »Hajde da bacimo ždrijeb da vidimo od koga nam dođe ovo zlo.« Baciše ždrijeb i pade ždrijeb na Jonu.	7 And they said every one to his fellow: Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know why this evil is upon us. And they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonas.
8 Oni mu onda rekoše: »Kaži nam: zbog koga nas ovo zlo snađe, kojim se poslom baviš, odakle dolaziš, iz koje si zemlje i od kojega naroda?«	8 And they said to him: Tell us for what cause this evil is upon us, what is thy business? of what country art thou? and whither goest thou? or of what people art thou?
9 On im odgovori: »Ja sam Hebrej, i štujem Jahvu, Boga nebeskoga, koji stvori more i zemlju.«	9 And he said to them: I am a Hebrew, and I fear the Lord the God of heaven, who made both the sea and the dry land.
10 Ljudi se uplašiše veoma i rekoše mu: »Što si to učinio!« Jer bijahu doznali da on bježi od Jahve – sam im je to pripovjedio.	10 And the men were greatly afraid, and they said to him: Why hast thou done this? (for the men knew that he fled from the face of the Lord: because he had told them.)
11 Oni ga zapitaše: »Što da učinimo s tobom da nam se more smiri?« Jer se more sve bješnje dizalo.	11 And they said to him: What shall we do to thee, that the sea may be calm to us? for the sea flowed and swelled.
12 On im odgovori: »Uzmite me i bacite u more, pa će vam se more smiriti, jer znam da se zbog mene diglo na vas ovo veliko nevrijeme.«	12 And he said to them: Take me up, and cast me into the sea, and the sea shall be calm to you: for I know that for my sake this great tempest is upon you.
13 Ljudi uzeše veslati ne bi li se primakli kopnu, jer se more sve bješnje dizalo protiv njih.	13 And the men rowed hard to return to land, but they were not able: because the sea tossed and swelled upon them.
14 Tad zazvaše Jahvu i rekoše: »Ah, Jahve, ne daj da poginemo zbog života ovoga čovjeka i ne svali na nas krv nevinu, jer ti si Jahve: činiš kako ti je milo.«	14 And they cried to the Lord, and said: We beseech thee, O Lord, let us not perish for this man's life, and lay not upon us innocent blood: for thou, O Lord, hast done as it pleased thee.
15 I uzevši Jonu, baciše ga u more – i more presta bjesnjeti.	15 And they took Jonas, and cast him into the sea, and the sea ceased from raging.
16 Tada velik strah Jahvin obuze ljude te prinesoše žrtvu Jahvi i učiniše zavjete.	16 And the men feared the Lord exceedingly, and sacrificed victims to the Lord, and made vows.
