Jonah 2

1 The prayer of Jonah. 10 He is delivered from the fish.

 2:1 ¶ Then prayed Jonah, unto Yahweh, his God,—out of the belly of the fish;

 2:2 and said—I cried—out of my distress—unto Yahweh, and he answered me,—Out of the belly of hades, called I, Thou didst hear my voice.

 2:3 For thou hast cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and, a flood, enveloped me,—All thy breakers and thy rolling waves, over me, passed.

 2:4 And, I, said, I am driven out from before thine eyes,—Yet will I again have regard unto thy holy temple:

 2:5 The waters, encompassed me, to the peril of my life, The roaring deep, enveloped me,—The sea-weed, was wrapped about my head:

 2:6 To the roots of the mountains, went I down, As for the earth, her bars, were about me, age-abidingly,—Then didst thou bring up—out of the pit—my life, O Yahweh my God.

 2:7 When my soul, darkened itself over me, Yahweh, I remembered,—and my prayer, came in unto thee, unto thy holy temple.

 2:8 They who take heed to the vanities of falsehood, do, their own lovingkindness, forsake.

 2:9 But, I, with the voice of praise, will sacrifice unto thee, What I have vowed, I will pay,—Salvation, belongeth to Yahweh!

 2:10 ¶ So then Yahweh spake unto the fish,—and it vomited out Jonah, upon the dry land.
