Jonas Propheta 2
1 Et oravit Jonas ad Dominum Deum suum de ventre piscis,
Then Jonah prayed to the LORD, his God, out of the fish’s belly.
2 et dixit: Clamavi de tribulatione mea ad Dominum, et exaudivit me; de ventre inferi clamavi, et exaudisti vocem meam. (Sheol h7585)
He said, "I called because of my affliction to the LORD. He answered me. Out of the belly of Sheol (Sheol h7585) I cried. You heard my voice.
3 Et projecisti me in profundum in corde maris, et flumen circumdedit me: omnes gurgites tui, et fluctus tui super me transierunt.
For you threw me into the depths, in the heart of the seas. The flood was all around me. All your waves and your billows passed over me.
4 Et ego dixi: Abjectus sum a conspectu oculorum tuorum; verumtamen rursus videbo templum sanctum tuum.
I said, ‘I have been banished from your sight; yet I will look again toward your holy temple.’
5 Circumdederunt me aquæ usque ad animam: abyssus vallavit me, pelagus operuit caput meum.
The waters surrounded me, even to the soul. The deep was around me. The weeds were wrapped around my head.
6 Ad extrema montium descendi; terræ vectes concluserunt me in æternum: et sublevabis de corruptione vitam meam, Domine Deus meus.
I went down to the bottoms of the mountains. The earth barred me in forever; yet you have brought my life up from the pit, LORD my God.
7 Cum angustiaretur in me anima mea, Domini recordatus sum: ut veniat ad te oratio mea, ad templum sanctum tuum.
“When my soul fainted within me, I remembered the LORD. My prayer came in to you, into your holy temple.
8 Qui custodiunt vanitates frustra, misericordiam suam derelinquunt.
Those who regard vain idols forsake their own mercy.
9 Ego autem in voce laudis immolabo tibi: quæcumque vovi, reddam pro salute Domino.
But I will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving. I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation belongs to the LORD.”
10 Et dixit Dominus pisci, et evomuit Jonam in aridam.
Then the LORD spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah on the dry land.
