[1] He, Niniwe, mara edhingngagi! Se arosaga ba'na la dhateng! Jaga teng-binteng partahanan! Abassagi rong-lorongnga! Mara asadhiya se aperranga. (
[2] Onggu, PANGERAN pajat mabaliya kajaja'anna Isra'il, sopaja daddiya akantha lamba'na, sabellunna erampok bi' so-mosona.)
[3] Tantarana moso ngangguy tameng mera, saragamma barnana akantha dhara. Moso la sadhiya se nyargebba. Karetana akantha apoy rap-galiraban. Jaranna padha ngalengsang.
[4] E lorong, ta-karetana maju ce' santa'na, saleng serser e lapangan. Katonna akantha obur se rabbang, arebbu' adha', jang ceppeddan akantha kelap.
[5] Para parwira esoro maju; e bakto nyerbu dhung-tatandhung. Ru-kaburu berka' ka geddhungnga kottha, pakakas se eangguya arosak epamanjeng bakto jareya keya.
[6] Bang-labangnga aeng e sakabbinna songay la abukka', laju baridhu karaton saessena.
[7] Rato ekenneng pega', para emban padha nanges abukbuk dhadha, serrona akantha mano' dara.
[8] Ra'yat Niniwe padha buru, akantha aeng se ngalowa dhari tanggul se robbu. Badha se ra'-era'an, “Ambu! Ambu!” -- tape tadha' settonga se endha' abali.
[9] Rampas emmas ban salakana! Kottha reya possa' ban arta!
[10] Niniwe la ancor, seppe ban kajal. Dhari tako'na ate daddi tabar. To'ot daddi lemmes sarta ngetter. Mowana oreng kabbi padha pocet.
[11] E dhimma kottha jareya sateya? Kottha se akantha guwa kennengnganna lebunna macan? Kennengnganna dhu'-budhu'na macan epakane, kennengngan tojjuwanna macan lake' ban bine', kennengngan se aman monggu ka na'-ana'na?
[12] Lamba' e dhissa' macan nyeppa' mangsana, se pas ebit-sebbit menangka kakanna ana' binena. Macan jareya mossa'e rongkangnga ban bit-sebbidanna dagingnga.
[13] “Sengko' reya mosona ba'na,” dhabuna PANGERAN Se Mahakobasa. “Ta-karetana ba'na bi' Sengko' eobbara epatadha'a karena. Rit-parjuridda ba'na bakal mateya e paperrangan, ban Sengko' ngala'a sabarang andhi'na ba'na ollena ngala' dhari oreng laen. Parmenta'an-parmenta'anna para otosanna ba'na se maksa bakal ta' ekaedhinga oreng pole.”
