you are here: > Jonah
> Chapter 02
 |
Chapter 2 | |
1. |
Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God out of the fish's belly, |
|
2. |
And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the Lord, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and you heardest my voice. |
|
3. |
For you hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods surrounded me about: all thy billows and thy waves passed over me. |
|
4. |
Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple. |
|
5. |
The waters surrounded me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head. |
|
6. |
I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me for ever: yet have you brought up my life from corruption, O Lord my God. |
|
7. |
When my soul fainted within me I remembered the Lord: and my prayer came in unto thee, into your holy temple. |
|
8. |
They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy. |
|
9. |
But I will sacrifice unto you with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the Lord. |
|
10. |
And the Lord spoke unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land. |
