Ioni 9:16-24

¹⁶ʼInega vaidi Falisi ivonaya, “Baʼe toviaqa nana tauna ge wese Yaubada ʼinega damai, mana luvine Sabate weaqina ge damatayagea!” Ta wese vaidi ivonaya, “Maʼoda ʼinega ana fata viaqa waiwaina be ʼebenuavoqana baʼe ʼidewani naviaqia ʼeguma tauna taha toluveifana?” ʼInega taudiega nuanidia vetoatoasiʼi ʼifoqe.

¹⁷ʼInega Falisi ʼoloto nana wese ivetalaʼaiea ivonaya, “Ta oʼa maʼoda unuanua ʼaiqa matau ana togiaha weaqina? Tauna togama?” ʼInega veʼiedi vonaya, “Tauna taha tovesimasimana.”

¹⁸Ta taudi me Diu dina nawale ivenuana magilafu ʼoloto nana weaqina, ta ivonaya be tauna lova ge wese matana dakwaya ta baʼitagana matana daʼeaei, ʼinega inana be tamana adi vale ivetunea ta imai.

¹⁹ʼInega me Diu ivetalaʼaiedi ivonaya, “Nage baʼe ʼoloto nana natumi? Nage tauna viʼoi matana kwayakwayana? Ta ʼeguma matana kwayakwayana viʼoi, ʼinega maʼodana baʼitagana ʼitaʼita?”

²⁰ʼInega inana be tamana iveʼiedi ivonaya, “Vonahaqiaqi, taunana natuma, ta wese ahalamani aqiaqiea tauna matana kwayakwayana viʼoiea.

²¹Ta imaʼa ge ada alamania maʼoda ʼinega baʼitagana ʼitaʼita nage togama matana giaea. Ta ʼesi taumiega ona vetalaʼaiea, mana niʼa vekilakai ta ana fata taunega weaqina navona.”

²²Ta inana be tamana baʼe ʼidewani ivona ʼaiqa mana me Diu imwaninivedi. Ta edi mwaniniva ʼiuna, mana me Diu niʼa isimana ʼifoqe ʼeguma taha toga navona ʼifoqe vonigo Ieisu tauna Toʼetoyavua, e ʼinega tomotau nana ina aʼuʼifoqeyea vanue tafwalolo ʼinega.

²³E baʼe ʼiu nana ʼinega inana be tamana ivonaya, “Taumiega ona vetalaʼaiea, mana niʼa vekilakai ta ana fata taunega weaqina nasimana.”

²⁴Ta wese tuta vemagilafuna me Diu ʼoloto nana tauna lova matana kwayakwayana igaba ʼeviviea ta ivoneaya, “Una ʼawatamatamana Yaubada ana wawega be una vonahaqiaqi ʼimaya. Mana imaʼa niʼa ahalamania vonigo Ieisu tauna taha toluveifana.”
