Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the fish’s belly. |
|
| 2 |
And he said: “I [1†]cried out to the LORD because of my affliction, [2†]And He answered me. “Out of the belly of Sheol I cried, And You heard my voice. |
|
| 3 |
[3†]For You cast me into the deep, Into the heart of the seas, And the floods surrounded me; [4†]All Your billows and Your waves passed over me. |
|
| 4 |
[5†]Then I said, ‘I have been cast out of Your sight; Yet I will look again [6†]toward Your holy temple.’ |
|
| 5 |
The [7†]waters surrounded me, even to my soul; The deep closed around me; Weeds were wrapped around my head. |
|
| 6 |
I went down to the moorings of the mountains; The earth with its bars closed behind me forever; Yet You have brought up my [8†]life from the pit, O LORD, my God. |
|
| 7 |
“When my soul fainted within me, I remembered the LORD; [9†]And my prayer went up to You, Into Your holy temple. |
|
| 8 |
“Those who regard [10†]worthless idols Forsake their own Mercy. |
|
| 9 |
But I will [11†]sacrifice to You With the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay what I have [12†]vowed. [13†]Salvation is of the [14†]LORD.” |
|
| 10 |
So the LORD spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land. |
