Jonah 2
1 Na ke Jonah el muta insien ik soko ah, el pre nu sin LEUM GOD lal ac fahk:
And Jonah prayed to the Lord, his God, from the belly of the fish.
2 “O LEUM GOD, ke nga muta in ongoiya nga pang nu sum, Ac kom topukyu. Nga pang nu sum infulan facl sin mwet misa me in suk kasru, Ac kom lohngyu. (Sheol h7585)
And he said: “I cried out to the Lord from my tribulation, and he heeded me. From the belly of hell, I cried out, and you heeded my voice. (Sheol h7585)
3 Kom sisyula nu yen loallana in meoa uh, Acn ma kof uh apinyula Ac noa lulap toki fuk.
And you have thrown me into the deep, in the heart of the sea, and a flood has encircled me. All your whirlpools and your waves have passed over me.
4 Nga nunku mu kom sisyula liki ye motom Ac nga fah tia ku in sifilpa liye Tempul mutal lom.
And I said: I am expelled from the sight of your eyes. Yet, truly, I will see your holy temple again.
5 Kof uh tilmakinyuwi ac tulokinya monguk. Meoa uh apinyula, Ac kormwek uh punla insifuk.
The waters surrounded me, even to the soul. The abyss has walled me in. The ocean has covered my head.
6 Nga tilla nwe ke nga sun kapin eol ye kof uh, Nu in acn su mutunpot kac kaul ma pahtpat. Ne ouinge, O LEUM GOD luk, Kom folokinyume liki acn loal sac, ac nga moulla.
I descended to the base of the mountains. The bars of the earth have enclosed me forever. And you will raise up my life from corruption, Lord, my God.
7 Ke nga pula lah moul luk apkuran in safla, Nga pang nu sum, O LEUM GOD, Ac kom lohngyu in Tempul mutal lom.
When my soul was in anguish within me, I called to mind the Lord, so that my prayer might come to you, to your holy temple.
8 Elos su alu nu ke ma srulaola lusrongten, Elos ngetla liki kom ac tia sifil inse pwaye nu sum.
Those who in vain observe vanities, abandon their own mercy.
9 Tusruktu nga fah yuk on in kaksak nu sum. Nga fah orek kisa nu sum Ac oru oana ma nga wulela kac. Molela tuku sin LEUM GOD me!”
But I, with a voice of praise, will sacrifice to you. I will repay whatever I have vowed to the Lord, because of my salvation.”
10 Na LEUM GOD El sap ik soko ah in wihtaclla Jonah nu weacn uh, ac el wihtaclla.
And the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.
