Jonah 2

New American Standard Bible NAS

1 Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the stomach of the fish,

2 and he said, "I called out of my distress to the LORD , And He answered me. I cried for help from the depth of Sheol; You heard my voice.

3 "For You had cast me into the deep, Into the heart of the seas, And the current engulfed me. All Your breakers and billows passed over me.

4 "So I said, 'I have been expelled from Your sight. Nevertheless I will look again toward Your holy temple.'

5 "Water encompassed me to the point of death. The great deep engulfed me, Weeds were wrapped around my head.

6 "I descended to the roots of the mountains. The earth with its bars was around me forever, But You have brought up my life from the pit, O LORD my God.

7 "While I was fainting away, I remembered the LORD , And my prayer came to You, Into Your holy temple.

8 "Those who regard vain idols Forsake their faithfulness,

9 But I will sacrifice to You With the voice of thanksgiving. That which I have vowed I will pay. Salvation is from the LORD ."

10 Then the LORD commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah up onto the dry land.

English Standard Version ESV

1 Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the belly of the fish,

2 saying, “I called out to the Lord, out of my distress, and he answered me; out of the belly of Sheol I cried, and you heard my voice.

3 For you cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the flood surrounded me; all your waves and your billows passed over me.

4 Then I said, ‘I am driven away from your sight; yet I shall again look upon your holy temple. ’

5 The waters closed in over me to take my life; the deep surrounded me; weeds were wrapped about my head

6 at the roots of the mountains. I went down to the land whose bars closed upon me forever; yet you brought up my life from the pit, O Lord my God.

7 When my life was fainting away, I remembered the Lord, and my prayer came to you, into your holy temple.

8 Those who pay regard to vain idols forsake their hope of steadfast love.

9 But I with the voice of thanksgiving will sacrifice to you; what I have vowed I will pay. Salvation belongs to the Lord! ”

10 And the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah out upon the dry land.
