1
Then Jonah[H3124]prayed[H6419] unto the LORD[H3068] his God[H430] out of the fish's belly[H4578],
2
And said[H559], I cried[H7121] by reason of mine affliction[H6869] unto the LORD[H3068], and he heard[H6030] me; out of the belly[H990] of hell[H7585]cried[H7768] I, and thou heardest[H8085] my voice[H6963].
3
For thou hadst cast[H7993] me into the deep[H4688], in the midst[H3824] of the seas[H3220]; and the floods[H5104]compassed[H5437] me about: all thy billows[H4867] and thy waves[H1530] passed over[H5674] me.
4
Then I said[H559], I am cast out[H1644] of thy sight[H5869]; yet I will look[H5027]again[H3254] toward thy holy[H6944]temple[H1964].
5
The waters[H4325] compassed me about[H661], even to the soul[H5315]: the depth[H8415] closed me round about[H5437], the weeds[H5488] were wrapped about[H2280] my head[H7218].
6
I went down[H3381] to the bottoms[H7095] of the mountains[H2022]; the earth[H776] with her bars[H1280] was about me for ever[H5769]: yet hast thou brought up[H5927] my life[H2416] from corruption[H7845], O LORD[H3068] my God[H430].
7
When my soul[H5315]fainted[H5848] within me I remembered[H2142] the LORD[H3068]: and my prayer[H8605] came in[H935] unto thee, into thine holy[H6944]temple[H1964].
8
They that observe[H8104]lying[H7723]vanities[H1892]forsake[H5800] their own mercy[H2617].
9
But I will sacrifice[H2076] unto thee with the voice[H6963] of thanksgiving[H8426]; I will pay[H7999] that that I have vowed[H5087]. Salvation[H3444] is of the LORD[H3068].
10
And the LORD[H3068]spake[H559] unto the fish[H1709], and it vomited out[H6958]Jonah[H3124] upon the dry[H3004] land.
