Jonah Chapter[BR] 2

1 And Jonah prayed to Jehovah his God out of the fish's belly,

2 and he said, I cried to Jehovah from my distress. And He answered me. Out of the belly of Sheol I cried for help, and You heard my voice.

3 For You cast me into the depths of the seas, and the current surrounded me. All Your breakers and Your waves passed over me.

4 Then I said, I am cast off from Your eyes, yet I will look again toward Your holy temple.

5 Waters encompassed me, even to the soul; the depth closed around me; the seaweed was bound to my head.

6 I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was around me forever; yet You have brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah my God.

7 When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Jehovah; and my prayer came in to You, into Your holy temple.

8 They who take heed to lying vanities forsake their kindness;

9 but I will sacrifice to You with the voice of thanksgiving; I will fulfill that which I have vowed. Salvation belongs to Jehovah!

10 And Jehovah spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah out on the dry land.
