This is a common way of beginning a historical story about a prophet. Use a word, phrase, or other method in your language that is natural for introducing a new event. The repetition of this same phrase introduces the second half of the story (3:1). 1:1 ll6c rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom וַֽ⁠יְהִי֙ דְּבַר־יְהוָ֔ה 1 This is an idiom meaning that Yahweh spoke or communicated his message in some way. If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use an idiom from your language that does have this meaning or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “The message of Yahweh came” or “Yahweh spoke his message” 1:1 jv8c rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-names אֲמִתַּ֖י 1 **Amittai** is the name of Jonah’s father. -1:2 x6h7 rc://*/ta/man/translate/grammar-connect-logic-result ק֠וּם לֵ֧ךְ אֶל־נִֽינְוֵ֛ה הָ⁠עִ֥יר הַ⁠גְּדוֹלָ֖ה וּ⁠קְרָ֣א עָלֶ֑י⁠הָ כִּֽי־עָלְתָ֥ה רָעָתָ֖⁠ם לְ⁠פָנָֽ⁠י 1 If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these clauses since the second half of the verse gives the reason for the result that the first half describes.

You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “the large and important city, Nineveh” 1:2 v2xt rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom ק֠וּם 1 **Get up** is an idiom that means that Jonah should take action. It does not mean that he was sitting or lying down at the time that God spoke to him. If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use an idiom from your language that does have this meaning, state the meaning plainly, or use only the verb “Go.” Alternate translation: “Look alive” or “Prepare yourself” 1:2 jqz9 rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy וּ⁠קְרָ֣א עָלֶ֑י⁠הָ 1 The pronoun **it** here, meaning the city of Nineveh, refers to the people living in and around the city.

If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “I know that they have been continually sinning” or “I have seen that their sin has been getting worse and worse” -1:2 r7kt rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns עָלְתָ֥ה רָעָתָ֖⁠ם לְ⁠פָנָֽ⁠י 1 If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of **wickedness**, you could express the same idea in another way.

If your readers would misunderstand this, you could state the meaning plainly. See how you translated this idiom in [1:2](../01/02.md). Alternate translation: “But Jonah decided to run away” or “Jonah prepared himself, but to run away” 1:3 n96t rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor מִ⁠לִּ⁠פְנֵ֖י יְהוָ֑ה & מִ⁠לִּ⁠פְנֵ֖י יְהוָֽה 1 The expression **the face of Yahweh** represents his presence. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. The idea of Yahweh’s presence also includes his knowledge, notice, attention, or judgment. By running away, Jonah is hoping that Yahweh will not notice that he is disobeying. Alternate translation: “from the presence of Yahweh” … “away from Yahweh” 1:3 g66v rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit לִ⁠בְרֹ֣חַ תַּרְשִׁ֔ישָׁ⁠ה 1 This city named Tarshish was in the direction opposite to Nineveh. You could include this information if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “to flee in the opposite direction, toward Tarshish, away”
