O mwanda nakimbile kunyemena ku Talashishi+ dibajinji; mwanda nadi ndyukile amba abe wi Leza wa kanye* ne lusa, wija pa kukwatwa bulobo kadi muyule buswe bwa ndamatyidile,+ ujingwa mutyima pa kyamalwa.
3 Shi ke pano a Yehova, nakwisāshila, yata būmi bwami,* mwanda i kipite buya mfwe kupita’ko kwikala mūmi.”+
4 Yehova waipangula’mba: “Le udi na bubinga bwa kulobela?”
5 Penepo Yona watamba panja pa kibundi, kashikete kutunduka kwa kibundi. Walonga mwa kufyama kwine’kwa kashikete mu mwemba, amba atale bisa kufikila kibundi.+
