Jonah 2
1 Then Jonah prayed unto the LORD his God out of the fish's belly.
Konsa, Jonas te priye a SENYÈ Bondye li a depi nan vant pwason an.
2 And he said: I called out of mine affliction unto the LORD, and He answered me; out of the belly of the nether-world cried I, and Thou heardest my voice. (Sheol h7585)
Li te di: “Mwen te rele nan detrès mwen bay SENYÈ a, e Li te reponn mwen. Mwen te kriye pou sekou depi nan pwofondè sejou mò yo. Ou te tande vwa mwen. (Sheol h7585)
3 For Thou didst cast me into the depth, in the heart of the seas, and the flood was round about me; all Thy waves and Thy billows passed over me.
Ou te jete mwen nan gwo pwofondè a, nan kè lanmè yo, e gwo kouran dlo a te vale mwen. Gwo lam lanmè ou yo ak gwo vag lanmè ou yo te pase sou mwen.
4 And I said: 'I am cast out from before Thine eyes'; yet I will look again toward Thy holy temple.
Konsa, mwen te di: ‘Mwen te vin chase lwen fas ou. Malgre sa, mwen va gade ankò vè tanp sen Ou an.’
5 The waters compassed me about, even to the soul; the deep was round about me; the weeds were wrapped about my head.
Dlo te antoure mwen jiskaske m rive nan pwen lanmò. Gwo pwofondè a te vale mwen; zèb lanmè yo te vlope tèt mwen.
6 I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars closed upon me for ever; yet hast Thou brought up my life from the pit, O LORD my God.
Mwen te desann jis rive nan baz mòn yo. Latè ak bawo li yo te antoure mwen pou tout tan, men Ou te leve lavi m monte soti nan fòs la, O SENYÈ Bondye mwen an!
7 When my soul fainted within me, I remembered the LORD; and my prayer came in unto Thee, into Thy holy temple.
“Pandan mwen t ap vin endispoze nèt, Mwen te sonje SENYÈ a e lapriyè mwen te rive kote Ou nan tanp sen Ou an.
8 They that regard lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
Sila ki konsidere zidòl san valè yo abandone tout sous mizerikòd,
9 But I will sacrifice unto Thee with the voice of thanksgiving; that which I have vowed I will pay. Salvation is of the LORD.
Men mwen va fè sakrifis a Ou menm ak vwa aksyon de gras la. Sa ke mwen te sèmante a, se li mwen va akonpli. Sali a sòti nan SENYÈ a.”
10 And the LORD spoke unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.
Epi SENYÈ a te kòmande pwason an e li te vomi Jonas sou tè sèch la.
