< Jonah 2 >
1 Then Jonah made prayer to the Lord his God from the inside of the fish, and said,
तब योनाले त्यस माछाको पेटबाट आफ्ना परमप्रभु परमेश्वरसँग प्रार्थना गरे ।
2 In my trouble I was crying to the Lord, and he gave me an answer; out of the deepest underworld I sent up a cry, and you gave ear to my voice. (Sheol )
तिनले भने, “मेरो सङ्कष्टको बारेमा मैले परमप्रभुलाई पुकारें र उहाँले मलाई जवाज दिनुभयो । चिहानको गर्भबाट मैले सहायताको निम्ति पुकारें! तपाईंले मेरो सोर सुन्नुभयो । (Sheol )
3 For you have put me down into the deep, into the heart of the sea; and the river was round about me; all your waves and your rolling waters went over me.
तपाईंले मलाई गहिरा ठाउँहरूमा, समुद्रको अन्तस्करणमा नै फाल्नुभएको थियो, अनि धारहरूले मलाई घेरे, र तपाईंका सबै छालहरू र लहरहरू ममाथि भए ।
4 And I said, I have been sent away from before your eyes; how may I ever again see your holy Temple?
मैले भनें, ‘तपाईंको नजरबाट म हटाइएको छु, अझै म फेरि तपाईंको पवित्र मन्दिरतिर आफ्ना आँखा लगाउनेछु ।’
5 The waters were circling round me, even to the neck; the deep was about me; the sea-grass was twisted round my head.
पानीले मेरा घाँटीसम्म नै भर्यो । र मेरो सबैतिर समुद्रको गहिराइ थियो, र मेरो टाउकोमा समुद्रका झारहरू बेहेरिए ।
6 I went down to the bases of the mountains; as for the earth, her walls were about me for ever: but you have taken up my life from the underworld, O Lord my God.
पहाडका फेदहरूमा म तल गएँ, र पृथ्वीले आफ्ना घेराहरूले सदाको निम्ति मलाई थुनिदियो । तापनि हे परमप्रभु, मेरा परमेश्वर, तपाईंले मेरो जीवनलाई खाडलबाट माथि ल्याउनुभयो ।
7 When my soul in me was overcome, I kept the memory of the Lord: and my prayer came in to you, into your holy Temple.
जब मेरो प्राणले मभित्रै मुर्छा खायो, तब मैले परमप्रभुलाई याद गरें, अनि मेरो प्रार्थना तपाईंकहाँ, तपाईंको पवित्र मन्दिरमा आयो ।
8 The worshippers of false gods have given up their only hope.
तिनीहरूले प्रेमपुर्ण विश्वस्ततालाई प्रेम गर्न छोड्दा, तिनीहरूले बेकारका देवताहरूमाथि ध्यान लगाए ।
9 But I will make an offering to you with the voice of praise; I will give effect to my oaths. Salvation is the Lord's.
तर मेरो बारेमा, उच्च सोरले म तपाईंलाई धन्यवादको बलिदान चढाउँछु । मैले गरेको भाकल म पुरा गर्नेछु । मुक्ति परमप्रभुबाट नै आउँछ!”
10 And at the Lord's order, the fish sent Jonah out of its mouth on to the dry land.
त्यसपछि परमप्रभुले माछालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभयो, र त्यसले योनालाई सुख्खा जमिनमा उकेलिदियो ।
