1And Jonah prayed unto Jehovah hisGod out of the fish's belly;
1Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God out of the fish’s belly,
2and he said: I cried by reason of my distress unto Jehovah, and he answered me; Out of the belly of Sheol cried I: thou heardest my voice.
2And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the Lord, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice.
3For thou didst cast me into the depth, into the heart of the seas, And the flood was round about me: All thy breakers and thy billows are gone over me.
3For thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods compassed me about: all thy billows and thy waves passed over me.
4And I said, I am cast out from before thine eyes, Yet will I look again toward thy holy temple.
4Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.
5The waters encompassed me, to the soul: The deep was round about me, The weeds were wrapped about my head.
5The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.
6I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; The bars of the earth [closed] upon me for ever: But thou hast brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah myGod.
6I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O Lord my God.
7When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Jehovah; And my prayer came in unto thee, Into thy holy temple.
7When my soul fainted within me I remembered the Lord: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.
