וַֽ⁠יְהִי֙ דְּבַר־יְהוָ֔ה

and=he/it_was word/matter_of YHWH

This phrase introduces the first half of the story of Jonah. 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).

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

וַֽ⁠יְהִי֙ דְּבַר־יְהוָ֔ה

and=he/it_was word/matter_of YHWH

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”
