2 Ke Yezabele kutuminaye Eliya muntu ne mukenji wamba ne: “Nzambi ingenzele nunku ne ipitshishe apu bingikala tshiyi mukuvuije pebe bu yonso* wa kudibu malaba dîba edi!”

4 Wakenza luendu lua dituku dimue mu tshipela, kufikaye muinshi mua mutshi kampanda wa jenete, yeye kusombamu, kulombaye bua afue.* Wakamba ne: “Mbikumbane! Mpindieu, Yehowa wanyi, angata muoyo* wanyi,+ bualu meme tshiena muimpe kupita bankambua banyi to.”

3 Kadi Yona wakajuka bua kunyema Yehowa mutangile ku Tâshishi; wakapueka ku Yopa, kupetaye mazuwa avua aya ku Tâshishi. Nunku wakafuta makuta a njila, kubandaye mu mazuwa bua kuya nabu ku Tâshishi, kule ne Yehowa.
