Jonah 2
1 And he prayed Jonah to Yahweh God his from [the] inward parts of the fish.
Then Jonah prayed to Jehovah from the belly of the fish,
2 And he said I called from distress of me to Yahweh and he answered me from [the] belly of Sheol I cried for help you heard voice my. (Sheol h7585)
and said: — I cried by reason of my distress to Jehovah, And he heard me: Out of the depth of the under-world I cried, And thou didst hear my voice. (Sheol h7585)
3 And you have thrown me [the] deep in [the] heart of [the] seas and a river it surrounds me all breakers your and waves your over me they have passed.
Thou didst cast me into the deep, into the heart of the sea, And the flood compassed me about; All thy billows and thy waves passed over me.
4 And I I said I have been driven away from before eyes your nevertheless I will repeat to look to [the] temple of holiness your.
And I said, “I am cast out from before thine eyes; Yet I will look again to thy holy temple!”
5 They have encompassed me waters to [the] neck [the] deep it surrounds me rush[es] [is] wrapped round to head my.
The waters compassed me about, even to the life, The deep enclosed me round about; Sea-weeds were bound around my head;
6 To extremities of mountains I went down the earth bars its [were] behind me for ever and you brought up from [the] pit life my O Yahweh God my.
I sank down to the foundations of the mountains; The bars of the earth were about me forever; Yet hast thou brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah, my God!
7 When fainted away on me life my Yahweh I remembered and it came to you prayer my to [the] temple of holiness your.
When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Jehovah, And my prayer came to thee, To thy holy temple.

They that honor lying vanities forsake their mercy;
9 And I with a voice of thanksgiving I will sacrifice to you [that] which I have vowed I will fulfill rescue [belongs] to Yahweh.
But I will sacrifice to thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that which I have vowed; Salvation is from Jehovah.
10 And he spoke Yahweh to the fish and it vomited up Jonah to the dry land.
And Jehovah commanded the fish, and it cast out Jonah upon the dry land.
