Jonah 2 (NET) New English Translation

1 Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the stomach of the fish
2 and said, "I called out to the LORD from my distress, and he answered me; from the belly of Sheol I cried out for help, and you heard my prayer.
3 You threw me into the deep waters, into the middle of the sea; the ocean current engulfed me; all the mighty waves you sent swept over me.
4 I thought I had been banished from your sight, that I would never again see your holy temple!
5 Water engulfed me up to my neck; the deep ocean surrounded me; seaweed was wrapped around my head.
6 I went down to the very bottoms of the mountains; the gates of the netherworld barred me in forever; but you brought me up from the Pit, O LORD, my God.
7 When my life was ebbing away, I called out to the LORD, and my prayer came to your holy temple.
8 Those who worship worthless idols forfeit the mercy that could be theirs.
9 But as for me, I promise to offer a sacrifice to you with a public declaration of praise; I will surely do what I have promised. Salvation belongs to the LORD!"
10 Then the LORD commanded the fish and it disgorged Jonah on dry land.
1 Then Jonah H3124 prayed H6419 unto H413 the LORD H3068 his God H430 out of the fish's H1710 belly H4480 H4578 ,
2 And said, H559 I cried H7121 by reason of mine affliction H4480 H6869 unto H413 the LORD, H3068 and he heard H6030 me ; out of the belly H4480 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 me about: H5437 all H3605 thy billows H4867 and thy waves H1530 passed H5674 over H5921 me.
4 Then I H589 said, H559 I am cast out H1644 of H4480 H5048 thy sight; H5869 yet H389 I will look H5027 again H3254 toward H413 thy holy H6944 temple. H1964
5 The waters H4325 compassed me about, H661 even to H5704 the soul: H5315 the depth H8415 closed me round about, H5437 the weeds H5488 were wrapped H2280 about 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 H1157 me forever: H5769 yet hast thou brought up H5927 my life H2416 from corruption H4480 H7845 , O LORD H3068 my God. H430
7 When my soul H5315 fainted H5848 within H5921 me I remembered H2142 H853 the LORD: H3068 and my prayer H8605 came in H935 unto H413 thee, into H413 thine holy H6944 temple. H1964
8 They that observe H8104 lying H7723 vanities H1892 forsake H5800 their own mercy. H2617
9 But I H589 will sacrifice H2076 unto thee with the voice H6963 of thanksgiving; H8426 I will pay H7999 that that H834 I have vowed. H5087 Salvation H3444 is of the LORD. H3068
10 And the LORD H3068 spoke H559 unto the fish, H1709 and it vomited out H6958 H853 Jonah H3124 upon H413 the dry H3004 land .
