Jonah 2
1 Jonah prayed to the Lord his God, out of the belly of the fish,
Na ke Jonah el muta insien ik soko ah, el pre nu sin LEUM GOD lal ac fahk:
2 and said: I cried out of my distress, to the Lord and he answered me; out of the midst of Sheol I cried aloud, and you heard my voice. (Sheol h7585)
“O LEUM GOD, ke nga muta in ongoiya nga pang nu sum, Ac kom topukyu. Nga pang nu sum infulan facl sin mwet misa me in suk kasru, Ac kom lohngyu. (Sheol h7585)
3 For you cast me into the deep, into heart of the seas, and the great flood rolled about me; all your breakers and your waves passed over me.
Kom sisyula nu yen loallana in meoa uh, Acn ma kof uh apinyula Ac noa lulap toki fuk.
4 Then I said, I am driven out, away from your sight; How will I ever again look towards your holy temple?
Nga nunku mu kom sisyula liki ye motom Ac nga fah tia ku in sifilpa liye Tempul mutal lom.
5 The waters surrounded me, the great deep engulfed me, the sea weeds were wrapped about my head.
Kof uh tilmakinyuwi ac tulokinya monguk. Meoa uh apinyula, Ac kormwek uh punla insifuk.
6 I went down to the roots of the mountains; the prison of the earth closed over me forever. Yet you brought up my life from destruction, O Lord my God.
Nga tilla nwe ke nga sun kapin eol ye kof uh, Nu in acn su mutunpot kac kaul ma pahtpat. Ne ouinge, O LEUM GOD luk, Kom folokinyume liki acn loal sac, ac nga moulla.
7 As my life slipped away, I remembered the Lord; and my prayer reached you, in your holy temple.
Ke nga pula lah moul luk apkuran in safla, Nga pang nu sum, O LEUM GOD, Ac kom lohngyu in Tempul mutal lom.
8 Those who worship worthless idols abandon their own mercy,
Elos su alu nu ke ma srulaola lusrongten, Elos ngetla liki kom ac tia sifil inse pwaye nu sum.
9 but I will sacrifice to you with loud thanksgiving! I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation is the Lord’s.
Tusruktu nga fah yuk on in kaksak nu sum. Nga fah orek kisa nu sum Ac oru oana ma nga wulela kac. Molela tuku sin LEUM GOD me!”
10 And the Lord spoke to the fish, and it threw up Jonah upon the dry land.
Na LEUM GOD El sap ik soko ah in wihtaclla Jonah nu weacn uh, ac el wihtaclla.
