Jonah 2
1 And Jonah prayed unto Jehovah his God out of the fish's belly;
Et oravit Jonas ad Dominum Deum suum de ventre piscis,
2 and he said: I cried by reason of my distress unto Jehovah, and he answered me; Out of the belly of Sheol cried I: thou heardest my voice. (Sheol h7585)
et dixit: [Clamavi de tribulatione mea ad Dominum, et exaudivit me; de ventre inferi clamavi, et exaudisti vocem meam. (Sheol h7585)
3 For thou didst cast me into the depth, into the heart of the seas, And the flood was round about me: All thy breakers and thy billows are gone over me.
Et projecisti me in profundum in corde maris, et flumen circumdedit me: omnes gurgites tui, et fluctus tui super me transierunt.
4 And I said, I am cast out from before thine eyes, Yet will I look again toward thy holy temple.
Et ego dixi: Abjectus sum a conspectu oculorum tuorum; verumtamen rursus videbo templum sanctum tuum.
5 The waters encompassed me, to the soul: The deep was round about me, The weeds were wrapped about my head.
Circumdederunt me aquæ usque ad animam: abyssus vallavit me, pelagus operuit caput meum.
6 I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; The bars of the earth [closed] upon me for ever: But thou hast brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah my God.
Ad extrema montium descendi; terræ vectes concluserunt me in æternum: et sublevabis de corruptione vitam meam, Domine Deus meus.
7 When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Jehovah; And my prayer came in unto thee, Into thy holy temple.
Cum angustiaretur in me anima mea, Domini recordatus sum: ut veniat ad te oratio mea, ad templum sanctum tuum.
8 They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
Qui custodiunt vanitates frustra, misericordiam suam derelinquunt.
9 But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation is of Jehovah.
Ego autem in voce laudis immolabo tibi: quæcumque vovi, reddam pro salute Domino.]
10 And Jehovah commanded the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry [land].
Et dixit Dominus pisci, et evomuit Jonam in aridam.
