1Then Jonah<3124> prayed<6419> to the LORD<3068> his God<430> from the stomach<4578> of the fish<1710>,
2and he said<559>, "I called<7121> out of my distress<6869> to the LORD<3068>, And He answered<6030> me. I cried<7768> for help<7768> from the depth<990> of Sheol<7585>; You heard<8085> my voice<6963>.
3"For You had cast<7993> me into the deep<4688>, Into the heart<3824> of the seas<3220>, And the current<5104> engulfed<5437> me. All<3605> Your breakers<4867> and billows<1530> passed<5674> over<5921> me.
4"So I said<559>, 'I have been expelled<1644> from Your sight<5869>. Nevertheless<389> I will look<5027> again<3254> toward<413> Your holy<6944> temple<1964>.'
5"Water<4325> encompassed<661> me to the point of death<5315>. The great deep<8415> engulfed<5437> me, Weeds<5488> were wrapped<2280> around my head<7218>.
6"I descended<3381> to the roots<7095> of the mountains<2022>. The earth<776> with its bars<1280> was around<1157> me forever<5769>, But You have brought<5927> up my life<2425> from the pit<7845>, O LORD<3068> my God<430>.
7"While I was fainting<5848> away<5848>, I remembered<2142> the LORD<3068>, And my prayer<8605> came<935> to You, Into Your holy<6944> temple<1964>.
8"Those who regard<8104> vain<7723> idols<1892> Forsake<5800> their faithfulness<2617>,
9But I will sacrifice<2076> to You With the voice<6963> of thanksgiving<8426>. That which<834> I have vowed<5087> I will pay<7999>. Salvation<3444> is from the LORD<3068>."
10Then the LORD<3068> commanded<559> the fish<1709>, and it vomited<7006> Jonah<3124> up onto<413> the dry<3004> land<3004>.
