Yunana 2
1 Daga ciki cikin kifi, Yunana ya yi addu’a ga Ubangiji Allahnsa.
Jonah prayed to the Lord his God, out of the belly of the fish,
2 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)
and said: I cried out of my distress, to the Lord and he answered me; out of the midst of Sheol I cried aloud, and you heard my voice. (Sheol h7585)
3 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.
For you cast me into the deep, into heart of the seas, and the great flood rolled about me; all your breakers and your waves passed over me.
4 Sai na ce, ‘An kore ni daga fuskarka; duk da haka zan sāke duba wajen haikalinka mai tsarki.’
Then I said, I am driven out, away from your sight; How will I ever again look towards your holy temple?
5 Ruwayen da suke kewaye da ni sun yi mini barazana, zurfi kuma ya kewaye ni, ciyayin ruwa suna nannaɗe kewaye da ni.
The waters surrounded me, the great deep engulfed me, the sea weeds were wrapped about my head.
6 Na nutsa har ƙarƙashin tuddai; a ƙarƙashin duniya, ka rufe ni har abada. Amma ka dawo da raina daga rami, Ya Ubangiji Allahna.
I went down to the roots of the mountains; the prison of the earth closed over me forever. Yet you brought up my life from destruction, O Lord my God.
7 “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.
As my life slipped away, I remembered the Lord; and my prayer reached you, in your holy temple.
8 “Waɗanda suka maƙale wa gumaka marasa amfani, sukan ƙyale alherin da zai kasance nasu.
Those who worship worthless idols abandon their own mercy,
9 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.”
but I will sacrifice to you with loud thanksgiving! I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation is the Lord’s.
10 Sai Ubangiji ya umarci kifin, kifin kuwa ya amayar da Yunana a gaɓan teku.
And the Lord spoke to the fish, and it threw up Jonah upon the dry land.
