1:1

καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρὸς Ιωναν τὸν τοῦ Αμαθι λέγων

And the word of the Lord came to Jonah son of Amathi, saying:

耶和華的話臨到亞瑪太的兒子約拿，說：

1:2

ἀνάστηθι καὶ πορεύθητι εἰς Νινευη τὴν πόλιν τὴν μεγάλην καὶ κήρυξον ἐν αὐτῇ ὅτι ἀνέβη ἡ κραυγὴ τῆς κακίας αὐτῆς πρός με

Rise up and go to Nineveh, the great city, and proclaim in it, for the cry of its wickedness has come up to me.

「你起來，往尼尼微大城去，在那城中宣告，因為她惡行的呼聲已經上達於我。」

1:3

καὶ ἀνέστη Ιωνας τοῦ φυγεῖν εἰς Θαρσις ἐκ προσώπου κυρίου καὶ κατέβη εἰς Ιοππην καὶ εὗρεν πλοῖον βαδίζον εἰς Θαρσις καὶ ἔδωκεν τὸ ναῦλον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐνέβη εἰς αὐτὸ τοῦ πλεῦσαι μετ’ αὐτῶν εἰς Θαρσις ἐκ προσώπου κυρίου

But Jonah rose up to flee to Tharsis from the presence of the Lord. He went down to Ioppe and found a ship going to Tharsis, and he paid its fare and boarded it, to sail with them to Tharsis, from the presence of the Lord.

約拿卻起來，要逃往他施去，離開耶和華的面。他下到約帕，找著一隻開往他施的船，就付了船費，上了船，要同他們往他施去，離開耶和華的面。

1:4

καὶ κύριος ἐξήγειρεν πνεῦμα εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ ἐγένετο κλύδων μέγας ἐν τῇ θαλάσσῃ καὶ τὸ πλοῖον ἐκινδύνευεν συντριβῆναι

And the Lord stirred up a wind onto the sea, and there was a great surge on the sea, and the ship was in danger of breaking up.

耶和華興起一陣風吹向海上，海中就起了大浪，船幾乎要破裂。

1:5

καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν οἱ ναυτικοὶ καὶ ἀνεβόων ἕκαστος πρὸς τὸν θεὸν αὐτῶν καὶ ἐκβολὴν ἐποιήσαντο τῶν σκευῶν τῶν ἐν τῷ πλοίῳ εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν τοῦ κουφισθῆναι ἀπ’ αὐτῶν Ιωνας δὲ κατέβη εἰς τὴν κοίλην τοῦ πλοίου καὶ ἐκάθευδεν καὶ ἔρρεγχεν

And the sailors were afraid, and each cried out to his own god; and they threw the gear that was in the ship into the sea, to be lightened of it. But Jonah had gone down into the hold of the ship, and he was asleep and snoring.

水手都懼怕，各人向自己的神呼求；他們又把船上的器具拋進海裡，好使船減輕負載。約拿卻下到船艙底層，睡著了，還打著鼾。

1:6

καὶ προσῆλθεν πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ πρωρεὺς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ τί σὺ ῥέγχεις ἀνάστα καὶ ἐπικαλοῦ τὸν θεόν σου ὅπως διασώσῃ ὁ θεὸς ἡμᾶς καὶ μὴ ἀπολώμεθα

And the chief officer came to him and said to him, "Why are you snoring? Get up and call on your god, so that god may bring us safely through and we may not perish."

船長到他那裡，對他說：「你為什麼打鼾？起來，求告你的神，或者神會搭救我們，使我們不致滅亡。」

1:7

καὶ εἶπεν ἕκαστος πρὸς τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ δεῦτε βάλωμεν κλήρους καὶ ἐπιγνῶμεν τίνος ἕνεκεν ἡ κακία αὕτη ἐστὶν ἐν ἡμῖν καὶ ἔβαλον κλήρους καὶ ἔπεσεν ὁ κλῆρος ἐπὶ Ιωναν

And each said to his neighbor, "Come, let us cast lots and find out on whose account this trouble is among us." And they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah.

他們彼此說：「來吧，我們掣籤，看這災禍臨到我們中間是因誰的緣故。」他們就掣籤，籤落在約拿身上。

1:8

καὶ εἶπον πρὸς αὐτόν ἀπάγγειλον ἡμῖν τίνος ἕνεκεν ἡ κακία αὕτη ἐστὶν ἐν ἡμῖν τίς σου ἡ ἐργασία ἐστίν καὶ πόθεν ἔρχῃ καὶ ἐκ ποίας χώρας καὶ ἐκ ποίου λαοῦ εἶ σύ

And they said to him, "Tell us, on whose account is this trouble among us? What is your occupation, and where do you come from, and from what country and from what people are you?"

他們就對他說：「請告訴我們，這災禍臨到我們中間是因誰的緣故？你做的是什麼行業？你從哪裡來？你是哪一國、哪一族的人？」

1:9

καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς δοῦλος κυρίου ἐγώ εἰμι καὶ τὸν κύριον θεὸν τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐγὼ σέβομαι ὃς ἐποίησεν τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ τὴν ξηράν

And he said to them, "I am a servant of the Lord, and I revere the Lord, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the dry land."

他對他們說：「我是耶和華的僕人；我敬畏那創造滄海和旱地的主，就是天上的神。」
