ΙΩΝΑΣ - Giona - Jonah 3

LXX	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 και εγενετο λογος κυριου προς ιωναν εκ δευτερου λεγων	1 And the word of the Lord came to Jonas the second time, saying:
2 αναστηθι και πορευθητι εις νινευη την πολιν την μεγαλην και κηρυξον εν αυτη κατα το κηρυγμα το εμπροσθεν ο εγω ελαλησα προς σε	2 Arise, and go to Ninive the great city: and preach in it the preaching that I bid thee.
3 και ανεστη ιωνας και επορευθη εις νινευη καθως ελαλησεν κυριος η δε νινευη ην πολις μεγαλη τω θεω ωσει πορειας οδου ημερων τριων	3 And Jonas arose, and went to Ninive, according to the word of the Lord: now Ninive was a great city of three days' journey.
4 και ηρξατο ιωνας του εισελθειν εις την πολιν ωσει πορειαν ημερας μιας και εκηρυξεν και ειπεν ετι τρεις ημεραι και νινευη καταστραφησεται	4 And Jonas began to enter into the city one day's journey: and he cried, and said: Yet forty days, and Ninive shall be destroyed.
5 και ενεπιστευσαν οι ανδρες νινευη τω θεω και εκηρυξαν νηστειαν και ενεδυσαντο σακκους απο μεγαλου αυτων εως μικρου αυτων	5 And the men of Ninive believed in God: and they proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth from the greatest to the least.
6 και ηγγισεν ο λογος προς τον βασιλεα της νινευη και εξανεστη απο του θρονου αυτου και περιειλατο την στολην αυτου αφ' εαυτου και περιεβαλετο σακκον και εκαθισεν επι σποδου	6 And the word came to the king of Ninive; and he rose up out of his throne, and cast away his robe from him, and was clothed with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
7 και εκηρυχθη και ερρεθη εν τη νινευη παρα του βασιλεως και παρα των μεγιστανων αυτου λεγων οι ανθρωποι και τα κτηνη και οι βοες και τα προβατα μη γευσασθωσαν μηδεν μηδε νεμεσθωσαν μηδε υδωρ πιετωσαν	7 And he caused it to be proclaimed and published in Ninive from the mouth of the king and of his princes, saying: Let neither men nor beasts, oxen nor sheep, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water.
8 και περιεβαλοντο σακκους οι ανθρωποι και τα κτηνη και ανεβοησαν προς τον θεον εκτενως και απεστρεψαν εκαστος απο της οδου αυτου της πονηρας και απο της αδικιας της εν χερσιν αυτων λεγοντες	8 And let men and beasts be covered with sackcloth, and cry to the Lord with all their strength, and let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the iniquity that is in their hands.
9 τις οιδεν ει μετανοησει ο θεος και αποστρεψει εξ οργης θυμου αυτου και ου μη απολωμεθα	9 Who can tell if God will turn, and forgive: and will turn away from his fierce anger, and we shall not perish?
10 και ειδεν ο θεος τα εργα αυτων οτι απεστρεψαν απο των οδων αυτων των πονηρων και μετενοησεν ο θεος επι τη κακια η ελαλησεν του ποιησαι αυτοις και ουκ εποιησεν	10 And God saw their works, that they were turned from their evil way: and God had mercy with regard to the evil which he had said that he would do to them, and he did it not.
