Jonah 2
1 Then prayed Jonah unto the Lord his God out of the belly of the fish.
Then Jonah prayed unto YHWH his Elohim out of the fish's belly,
2 And he said, I called from the midst of my distress unto the Lord, and he hath answered me: out of the depth of the grave have I cried, and thou hast heard my voice. (Sheol h7585)
And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto YHWH, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice. (Sheol h7585)
3 For thou hast cast me into the deep, in the heart of the seas; and the stream compasseth me about: all thy billows and thy waves have passed over me.
For thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods compassed me about: all thy billows and thy waves passed over me.
4 And I thought indeed, I am driven out from before thy eyes: yet I again shall look toward thy holy temple.
Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.
5 The waters surrounded me, to the peril of my life; the deep compassed me about: sea-weeds were bound about my head.
The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.
6 To the bottoms of the mountains did I go down; the earth [closed] her bars about me for ever: when thou broughtest up my life from the pit, O Lord my God!
I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O YHWH my Elohim.
7 When my soul fainted within me I remembered the Lord: and my prayer came unto thee, unto thy holy temple.
When my soul fainted within me I remembered YHWH: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.
8 They that guard false vanities forsake [the source of] their kindness.
They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
9 But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; that which I have vowed will I pay; [for] help is with the Lord.
But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of YHWH.
10 And the Lord commanded the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.
And YHWH spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.
