Jonah 2
1 And Jonah prays to his God YHWH from the bowels of the fish.
A PULE aku la o Iona ia Iehova i kona Akua mai ka opu aku o ka ia, a i aku la,
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)
Ua kahea aku au, mai ko'u wahi pilikia, ia Iehova, a hoolohe mai ia ia'u. Mai ka opu o ka po i kahea aku ai au, a hoolohe mai oe i kuu leo. (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.
No ka mea, ua kiola aku oe ia'u i ka hohonu, iwaenakonu o ke kai; Ua hoopuniia au e ke kai; O kou mau nalu a pau, a me kou mau ale, ua kaa iho la ia maluna o'u.
4 And I said: I have been cast out from before Your eyes (Yet I add to look to Your holy temple!)
Alaila, i iho la au, Ua hooleiia'ku au mai kou alo aku, Aka, e nana hou aku au i kou luakini hoano.
5 Waters have surrounded me to the soul, The deep surrounds me, The weed is bound to my head.
Ua hoopuni na wai ia'u, a i ke ola, Ua hoopuni ka hohonu ia'u; Ua kaeiia ko'u poo i ka limu.
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.
Iho iho la au ilalo i na kumu o na mauna; Ua poai mau ia au e ka honua, a me kona mau kaola, Aka, ua lawe mai oe i kuu ola mai ka lua mai, e Iehova kuu Akua.
7 In the feebleness of my soul within me, I have remembered YHWH, And my prayer comes to You, Into Your holy temple.
I ka wa i maule ai kuu uhane iloko o'u, hoomanao iho la au ia Iehova; A hele ae la ka'u pule i ou la i kou luakini hoano.
8 Those observing lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
O na mea malama i na mea lapuwale, ua haalele lakou i ko lakou pomaikai.
9 And I—with a voice of thanksgiving—I sacrifice to You, That which I have vowed I complete, Salvation [is] of YHWH.”
Aka, e mohai aku au ia oe me ka leo hoomaikai; E hooko aku au i ka mea a'u i hoohiki ai. No Iehova mai ke ola.
10 And YHWH speaks to the fish, and it vomits Jonah out on the dry land.
A olelo mai o Iehova i ka ia, a luai aku ia ia Iona i ka aina maloo.
