1.2 KiB
Jonah's Prayer
Chapter 2
-
Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the belly of the fish,
-
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.
-
For you cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the flood surrounded me; all your breakers and your waves passed over me.
-
Then I said, 'I am driven away from your sight; yet I shall again look upon your holy temple.'
-
The waters closed in over me to take my life; the deep surrounded me; weeds were wrapped about my head.
-
To 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.
-
When my life was fainting away, I remembered the LORD, and my prayer came to you, into your holy temple.
-
Those who pay regard to vain idols forsake their hope of steadfast love.
-
But I with the voice of thanksgiving will sacrifice to you; what I have vowed I will pay. Salvation belongs to the LORD!"
-
And the LORD spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah out upon the dry land.
