1 1Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God afrom the stomach of the fish,
“I acalled out of my distress to the Lord,
And He answered me.
I cried for help from the 1depth of bSheol;
You heard my voice.
3 “For You had acast me into the deep,
Into the heart of the seas,
And the current 1engulfed me.
All Your bbreakers and billows passed over me.
4 “So I said, ‘I have been aexpelled from 1Your sight.
Nevertheless I will look again btoward Your holy temple.’
5 “aWater encompassed me to the 1point of death.
Weeds were wrapped around my head.
6 “I adescended to the roots of the mountains.
The earth with its bbars was around me forever,
But You have cbrought up my life from 1the pit, O Lord my God.
7 “While 1I was afainting away,
I bremembered the Lord,
And my cprayer came to You,
Into dYour holy temple.
8 “Those who aregard 1vain idols
Forsake their faithfulness,
9 But I will asacrifice to You
With the voice of thanksgiving.
That which I have vowed I will bpay.
cSalvation is from the Lord.”
10 Then the Lord commanded the afish, and it vomited Jonah up onto the dry land.
