Jona 2
1 Potem je Jona iz ribjega trebuha molil h Gospodu, svojemu Bogu
Then Jonah prayed to Yahweh his God from the fish's stomach.
2 in rekel: »Zaradi razloga svoje stiske sem klical h Gospodu in me je slišal. Ven iz trebuha pekla sem klical in ti si slišal moj glas. (Sheol h7585)
He said, “I called out to Yahweh about my distress and he answered me; from the belly of Sheol I cried out for help! You heard my voice. (Sheol h7585)
3 Kajti vrgel si me v globino, v sredo morij, in poplave so me obkrožile. Vsi tvoji veliki valovi in tvoji valovi so me preleteli.«
You had thrown me into the depths, into the heart of the seas, and the currents surrounded me; all your waves and billows passed over me.
4 Potem sem rekel: »Vržen sem iz tvojega pogleda, vendar bom ponovno gledal k tvojemu svetemu templju.
I said, 'I am driven out from before your eyes; yet I will again look toward your holy temple.'
5 Vode so me obkrožile, celó do duše, globine so me zaprle naokoli, plevel je bil zavit okoli moje glave.
The waters closed around me up to my neck; the deep was all around me; seaweed wrapped around my head.
6 Odšel sem navzdol, k vznožjem gora. Zemlja, s svojimi zapahi, je bila okoli mene na veke, vendar si ti moje življenje privedel gor iz trohnenja, oh Gospod, moj Bog.
I went down to the bases of the mountains; the earth with its bars closed upon me forever. Yet you brought up my life from the pit, Yahweh, my God!
7 Ko je moja duša slabela znotraj mene, sem se spomnil Gospoda. Moja molitev je vstopila k tebi, v tvoj sveti tempelj.
When my soul fainted within me, I called Yahweh to mind; then my prayer came to you, to your holy temple.
8 Tisti, ki obeležujejo lažnive ničevosti, zapuščajo svoje lastno usmiljenje.
They give attention to useless gods while they forsake loving faithfulness.
9 Toda jaz ti bom žrtvoval z glasom zahvaljevanja; plačal bom to, kar sem se zaobljubil. Rešitev duš je od Gospoda.«
But as for me, I will sacrifice to you with a voice of thanksgiving; I will fulfill that which I have vowed. Salvation comes from Yahweh!”
10 In Gospod je spregovoril ribi in izbljuvala je Jona na kopno zemljo.
Then Yahweh spoke to the fish, and it vomited up Jonah upon the dry land.
