12 Jona okwa yamukula: “Umbilii ndje mefuta, notali loto. Ondi shi shi kutya ombedhi oyandje, sho mwa adhika koshikungulu shi thike mpa.”
13 Oonakulongamo oya kambadhala okufala osikepa komunkulo noya dhugu nomatha gawo agehe. Ihe oshikungulu osha dhenge noonkondo, noinaa vula okuhuma ko. 14 Onkee oya kugile Omuwa ya ti: “Omuwa, otatu ku galikana, ino tu ethela meyonuko omolwomwenyo gwomulumentu nguka. Omuwa, owa longo ngaashi wa dhiladhila.” 15 Nena oya kutha Jona e taye mu umbile mefuta, olyo nolya loto nziya. 16 Shika osha halutha aathayili unene okutila Omuwa, noye mu yambele omayambo noyu uvaneke oku mu longela.
