< Jonah 2 >

1 And Jonah prayed unto Jehovah his God out of the fish's belly;
et oravit Iona ad Dominum Deum suum de utero 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 inferni 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 proiecisti 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 abiectus 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 aquae 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 terrae vectes concluserunt me in aeternum 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 quaecumque 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 Ionam in aridam
