< Jonah 3 >

1 And the worde of the Lord came vnto Ionah the seconde time, saying,
et factum est verbum Domini ad Ionam secundo dicens
2 Arise, goe vnto Nineueh that great citie, and preach vnto it the preaching, which I bid thee.
surge vade ad Nineven civitatem magnam et praedica in ea praedicationem quam ego loquor ad te
3 So Ionah arose and went to Nineueh according to ye word of the Lord: now Nineueh was a great and excellent citie of three dayes iourney.
et surrexit Iona et abiit in Nineven iuxta verbum Domini et Nineve erat civitas magna Dei itinere dierum trium
4 And Ionah began to enter into the citie a dayes iourney, and he cryed, and said, Yet fourtie dayes, and Nineueh shalbe ouerthrowen.
et coepit Iona introire in civitatem itinere diei unius et clamavit et dixit adhuc quadraginta dies et Nineve subvertetur
5 So the people of Nineueh beleeued God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth from ye greatest of the euen to the least of them.
et crediderunt viri ninevitae in Deo et praedicaverunt ieiunium et vestiti sunt saccis a maiore usque ad minorem
6 For worde came vnto the King of Nineueh, and he rose from his throne, and he layed his robe from him, and couered him with sackecloth, and sate in ashes.
et pervenit verbum ad regem Nineve et surrexit de solio suo et abiecit vestimentum suum a se et indutus est sacco et sedit in cinere
7 And he proclaimed and said through Nineueh, (by the counsell of ye king and his nobles) saying, Let neither man, nor beast, bullock nor sheep taste any thing, neither feed nor drinke water.
et clamavit et dixit in Nineve ex ore regis et principum eius dicens homines et iumenta et boves et pecora non gustent quicquam nec pascantur et aquam non bibant
8 But let man and beast put on sackecloth, and crie mightily vnto God: yea, let euery man turne from his euill way, and from the wickednesse that is in their handes.
et operiantur saccis homines et iumenta et clament ad Dominum in fortitudine et convertatur vir a via sua mala et ab iniquitate quae est in manibus eorum
9 Who can tell if God will turne, and repent and turne away from his fierce wrath, that we perish not?
quis scit si convertatur et ignoscat Deus et revertatur a furore irae suae et non peribimus
10 And God sawe their workes that they turned from their euill wayes: and God repented of the euill that he had said that he woulde doe vnto them, and he did it not.
et vidit Deus opera eorum quia conversi sunt a via sua mala et misertus est Deus super malitiam quam locutus fuerat ut faceret eis et non fecit
