Jonas Propheta 2
1 Et oravit Jonas ad Dominum Deum suum de ventre piscis,
Then Jonah prayed to YHWH, his God, out of the fish's belly.
2 et dixit: [Clamavi de tribulatione mea ad Dominum, et exaudivit me; de ventre inferi clamavi, et exaudisti vocem meam. (Sheol h7585)
He said, "I called because of my affliction to YHWH. He answered me. Out of the belly of Sheol I cried. You heard my voice. (Sheol h7585)
3 Et projecisti me in profundum in corde maris, et flumen circumdedit me: omnes gurgites tui, et fluctus tui super me transierunt.
For you threw me into the depths, in the heart of the seas. The flood was all around me. All your breakers and waves passed over me.
4 Et ego dixi: Abjectus sum a conspectu oculorum tuorum; verumtamen rursus videbo templum sanctum tuum.
I said, 'I have been banished from your sight; yet I will look again toward your holy temple.'
5 Circumdederunt me aquæ usque ad animam: abyssus vallavit me, pelagus operuit caput meum.
The waters surrounded me, threatening my life. The deep was around me. The end is upon my head.
6 Ad extrema montium descendi; terræ vectes concluserunt me in æternum: et sublevabis de corruptione vitam meam, Domine Deus meus.
I went down to the bottoms of the mountains. The earth barred me in forever: yet have you brought up my life from the pit, YHWH my God.
7 Cum angustiaretur in me anima mea, Domini recordatus sum: ut veniat ad te oratio mea, ad templum sanctum tuum.
"When my soul fainted within me, I remembered YHWH. My prayer came in to you, into your holy temple.
8 Qui custodiunt vanitates frustra, misericordiam suam derelinquunt.
Those who regard worthless things forsake their faithfulness.
9 Ego autem in voce laudis immolabo tibi: quæcumque vovi, reddam pro salute Domino.]
But I will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving. I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation belongs to YHWH."
10 Et dixit Dominus pisci, et evomuit Jonam in aridam.
YHWH spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah on the dry land.
