Jonah 2
1 And Jonah prays to his God YHWH from the bowels of the fish.
Daga ciki cikin kifi, Yunana ya yi addu’a ga Ubangiji Allahnsa.
2 And he says: “I called, because of my distress, to YHWH, And He answers me, From the belly of Sheol I have cried, You have heard my voice. (Sheol h7585)
Ya ce, “A cikin damuwata na yi kira ga Ubangiji, ya kuwa amsa mini. Daga cikin zurfi kabari na yi kiran neman taimako, ka kuwa saurari kukata. (Sheol h7585)
3 When You cast me [into] the deep, Into the heart of the seas, Then the flood surrounds me, All Your breakers and Your billows have passed over me.
Cikin tashin hankali, ka jefa ni cikin zurfafa, a tsakiyar teku, ka kuma jujjuya ni a cikin ruwa; dukan raƙuman ruwanka da ambaliyarka sun bi ta kaina.
4 And I said: I have been cast out from before Your eyes (Yet I add to look to Your holy temple!)
Sai na ce, ‘An kore ni daga fuskarka; duk da haka zan sāke duba wajen haikalinka mai tsarki.’
5 Waters have surrounded me to the soul, The deep surrounds me, The weed is bound to my head.
Ruwayen da suke kewaye da ni sun yi mini barazana, zurfi kuma ya kewaye ni, ciyayin ruwa suna nannaɗe kewaye da ni.
6 To the cuttings of mountains I have come down, The earth, her bars [are] behind me for all time. And You bring my life up from the pit, O YHWH my God.
Na nutsa har ƙarƙashin tuddai; a ƙarƙashin duniya, ka rufe ni har abada. Amma ka dawo da raina daga rami, Ya Ubangiji Allahna.
7 In the feebleness of my soul within me, I have remembered YHWH, And my prayer comes to You, Into Your holy temple.
“Sa’ad da na ji raina yana rabuwa da ni, na tuna da kai ya Ubangiji, addu’ata kuma ta kai gare ka, a haikalinka mai tsarki.
8 Those observing lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
“Waɗanda suka maƙale wa gumaka marasa amfani, sukan ƙyale alherin da zai kasance nasu.
9 And I—with a voice of thanksgiving—I sacrifice to You, That which I have vowed I complete, Salvation [is] of YHWH.”
Amma ni, da waƙar godiya, zan miƙa tawa hadaya gare ka. Abin da na yi alkawari, shi ne zan yi. Ceto yakan zo ne kawai daga wurin Ubangiji.”
10 And YHWH speaks to the fish, and it vomits Jonah out on the dry land.
Sai Ubangiji ya umarci kifin, kifin kuwa ya amayar da Yunana a gaɓan teku.
