Jonah Chapit 2
New International Version
1
Jonah’s Prayer From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord his God.
2
He said: “In my distress I called to the Lord, and he answered me. From the depths of the grave I called for help, and you listened to my cry.
3
You hurled me into the deep, into the very heart of the seas, and the currents swirled about me; all your waves and breakers swept over me.
4
I said, ‘I have been banished from your sight; yet I will look again toward your holy temple.’
5
The engulfing waters threatened me, the deep surrounded me; seaweed was wrapped around my head.
6
To the roots of the mountains I sank down; the earth beneath barred me in forever. But you brought my life up from the pit, O Lord my God.
7
“When my life was ebbing away, I remembered you, Lord, and my prayer rose to you, to your holy temple.
8
“Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace that could be theirs.
9
But I, with a song of thanksgiving, will sacrifice to you. What I have vowed I will make good. Salvation comes from the Lord.”
10
And the Lord commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.
