1:1 And the word of the Lord came to Jonah, the son of Amittai, saying,
1:1 耶和华的话临到亚米太的儿子约拿，说，
1:2 Up! go to Nineveh, that great town, and let your voice come to it; for their evil-doing has come up before me.
1:2 你起来往尼尼微大城去，向其中的居民呼喊。因为他们的恶达到我面前。
1:3 And Jonah got up to go in flight to Tarshish, away from the Lord; and he went down to Joppa, and saw there a ship going to Tarshish: so he gave them the price of the journey and went down into it to go with them to Tarshish, away from the Lord.
1:3 约拿却起来，逃往他施去躲避耶和华。下到约帕，遇见一只船，要往他施去。他就给了船价，上了船，要与船上的人同往他施去躲避耶和华。
1:4 And the Lord sent out a great wind on to the sea and there was a violent storm in the sea, so that the ship seemed in danger of being broken.
1:4 然而耶和华使海中起大风，海就狂风大作，甚至船几乎破坏。
1:5 Then the sailors were full of fear, every man crying to his god; and the goods in the ship were dropped out into the sea to make the weight less. But Jonah had gone down into the inmost part of the ship where he was stretched out in a deep sleep.
1:5 水手便惧怕，各人哀求自己的神。他们将船上的货物抛在海中，为要使船轻些。约拿已下到底舱，躺卧沉睡。
1:6 And the ship's captain came to him and said to him, What are you doing sleeping? Up! say a prayer to your God, if by chance God will give a thought to us, so that we may not come to destruction.
1:6 船主到他那里对他说，你这沉睡的人哪，为何这样呢？起来，求告你的神，或者神顾念我们，使我们不至灭亡。
1:7 And they said to one another, Come, let us put this to the decision of chance and see on whose account this evil has come on us. So they did so, and Jonah was seen to be the man.
1:7 船上的人彼此说，来吧，我们掣签，看看这灾临到我们是因谁的缘故。于是他们掣签，掣出约拿来。
1:8 Then they said to him, Now make clear to us what is your work, and where you come from? what is your country, and who are your people?
1:8 众人对他说，请你告诉我们，这灾临到我们是因谁的缘故。你以何事为业。你从哪里来。你是哪一国，属哪一族的人。
1:9 And he said to them, I am a Hebrew, a worshipper of the Lord, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the dry land.
1:9 他说，我是希伯来人。我敬畏耶和华，那创造沧海旱地之天上的神。
1:10 And the men were in great fear, and they said to him, What is this you have done? For the men had knowledge of his flight from the Lord because he had not kept it from them.
1:10 他们就大大惧怕，对他说，你做的是什么事呢？他们已经知道他躲避耶和华，因为他告诉了他们。
1:11 And they said to him, What are we to do to you so that the sea may become calm for us? For the sea was getting rougher and rougher.
1:11 他们问他说，我们当向你怎样行，使海浪平静呢？这话是因海浪越发翻腾。
1:12 And he said to them, Take me up and put me into the sea, and the sea will become calm for you: for I am certain that because of me this great storm has come on you.
1:12 他对他们说，你们将我抬起来，抛在海中，海就平静了。我知道你们遭这大风，是因我的缘故。
1:13 And the men were working hard to get back to the land, but they were not able to do so: for the sea got rougher and rougher against them.
1:13 然而那些人竭力荡桨，要把船拢岸，却是不能。因为海浪越发向他们翻腾。
1:14 So, crying to the Lord, they said, Give ear to our prayer, O Lord, give ear, and do not let destruction overtake us because of this man's life; do not put on us the sin of taking life without cause: for you, O Lord, have done what seemed good to you.
1:14 他们便求告耶和华说，耶和华阿，我们恳求你，不要因这人的性命使我们死亡，不要使流无辜血的罪归与我们。因为你耶和华是随自己的意旨行事。
1:15 So they took Jonah up and put him into the sea: and the sea was no longer angry.
1:15 他们遂将约拿抬起，抛在海中，海的狂浪就平息了。
1:16 Then great was the men's fear of the Lord; and they made an offering to the Lord and took oaths to him.
1:16 那些人便大大敬畏耶和华，向耶和华献祭，并且许愿。
1:17 And the Lord made ready a great fish to take Jonah into its mouth; and Jonah was inside the fish for three days and three nights.
1:17 耶和华安排一条大鱼吞了约拿，他在鱼腹中三日三夜。
