Yona 2:1-10
2 Kenako Yona anapemphera kwa Yehova Mulungu wake, ali mʼmimba mwa chinsombacho.+
2 Iye anati:
“Nditavutika kwambiri ndinaitana inu Yehova ndipo munandiyankha.+
Ndinafuula kupempha thandizo ndili mʼManda* akuya,+
Ndipo inu munamva mawu anga.
3 Mutandiponya pamalo ozama, pansi penipeni pa nyanja yakuya,Madzi amphamvu anandimiza.+
Mafunde anu amphamvu anadutsa pamwamba panga.+
4 Ndipo ine ndinati, ‘Mwandithamangitsa pamaso panu!
Kodi kachisi wanu woyera ndidzamuonanso?’
5 Madzi anandimiza moti ndinangotsala pangʼono kufa.+Ndinamira mʼmadzi akuya kwambiri.
Zomera zamʼnyanja zinakulunga mutu wanga.
6 Ndinamira mpaka mʼmunsi mwenimweni mwa mapiri.
Zotsekera za dziko lapansi zinayamba kunditsekereza kuti ndikhale komweko mpaka kalekale.
Koma inu Yehova Mulungu wanga, munanditulutsa mʼdzenje ndili wamoyo.+
7 Nditatsala pangʼono kufa, ndinakumbukira Yehova.+
Ndipo pemphero langa linafika kwa inu mʼkachisi wanu woyera.+
8 Anthu okhulupirira mafano opanda pake, amasiya Mulungu amene angawasonyeze chikondi chokhulupirika.*
9 Koma ine, ndidzakutamandani ndi kupereka nsembe kwa inu.
Zimene ndalonjeza ndidzazikwaniritsa.+
Chipulumutso chimachokera kwa Yehova.”+
10 Kenako Yehova analamula chinsomba chija ndipo chinalavula Yona kumtunda.
