Jonas 2
1 Un Jona pielūdza To Kungu, savu Dievu, no zivs vēdera
Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the belly of the fish.
2 Un sacīja: es piesaucu To Kungu savās bēdās, un Viņš man atbildēja, es kliedzu no elles vēdera, un Tu klausīji manu balsi. (Sheol h7585)
He began, “In my agony I cried out to the Lord and he answered me; from the depths of Sheol I pleaded for help and you answered me. (Sheol h7585)
3 Tu mani nometi dziļumā, jūras apakšā, un ūdens mani apstāja, visi Tavi plūdi un Tavi viļņi gāja pār mani pāri.
You threw me into the deep, all the way down to the bottom of the sea. Water flooded all around me; your crashing waves rolled over me.
4 Tad es sacīju: es esmu atmests no Tavām acīm, tomēr es atkal skatīšu Tavu svēto namu.
I said to myself, ‘The Lord has banished me from his sight. Will I ever see your holy Temple again?’
5 Ūdens mani apstāja līdz pašai dvēselei, dziļumi mani apkampa, ašķi apsedza manu galvu.
The water swirled over me so I couldn't breathe; the deep sucked me down; seaweed wrapped itself around my head.
6 Es nogrimu pie kalnu pamatiem, zeme savas durvis pār mani bija aizdarījusi mūžīgi, bet Tu manu dzīvību esi izvedis no posta, Kungs, mans Dievs.
I sank down to the base of the mountains; the earth barred me in forever. But you, my Lord, my God, brought me back up from the abyss.
7 Kad mana dvēsele iekš manis izsamisējās, tad es pieminēju To Kungu, un mana lūgšana nāca pie Tevis Tavā svētā namā.
As my life ebbed away, I remembered the Lord; my prayer came to you in your holy Temple.
8 Kas turas pie viltīgas nelietības tie zaudē savu žēlastību.
Those who worship worthless idols give up their trust in God's goodness.
9 Bet es Tev upurēšu ar pateicības balsi; ko esmu solījis, to es maksāšu. Pie Tā Kunga ir pestīšana.
But I will offer you sacrifices, shouting out my thanks. I will keep my promises to you, for salvation comes from the Lord.”
10 Un Tas Kungs runāja uz to zivi, un tā izvēma Jonu malā.
Then the Lord told the fish to spit out Jonah onto the shore.
