Jonas 2
1 Un Jona pielūdza To Kungu, savu Dievu, no zivs vēdera
Jonah prayed to the Lord his God, out of the belly of the fish,
2 Un sacīja: es piesaucu To Kungu savās bēdās, un Viņš man atbildēja, es kliedzu no elles vēdera, un Tu klausīji manu balsi. (Sheol h7585)
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)
3 Tu mani nometi dziļumā, jūras apakšā, un ūdens mani apstāja, visi Tavi plūdi un Tavi viļņi gāja pār mani pāri.
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.
4 Tad es sacīju: es esmu atmests no Tavām acīm, tomēr es atkal skatīšu Tavu svēto namu.
Then I said, I am driven out, away from your sight; How will I ever again look towards your holy temple?
5 Ūdens mani apstāja līdz pašai dvēselei, dziļumi mani apkampa, ašķi apsedza manu galvu.
The waters surrounded me, the great deep engulfed me, the sea weeds were wrapped about my head.
6 Es nogrimu pie kalnu pamatiem, zeme savas durvis pār mani bija aizdarījusi mūžīgi, bet Tu manu dzīvību esi izvedis no posta, Kungs, mans Dievs.
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.
7 Kad mana dvēsele iekš manis izsamisējās, tad es pieminēju To Kungu, un mana lūgšana nāca pie Tevis Tavā svētā namā.
As my life slipped away, I remembered the Lord; and my prayer reached you, in your holy temple.
8 Kas turas pie viltīgas nelietības tie zaudē savu žēlastību.
Those who worship worthless idols abandon their own mercy,
9 Bet es Tev upurēšu ar pateicības balsi; ko esmu solījis, to es maksāšu. Pie Tā Kunga ir pestīšana.
but I will sacrifice to you with loud thanksgiving! I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation is the Lord’s.
10 Un Tas Kungs runāja uz to zivi, un tā izvēma Jonu malā.
And the Lord spoke to the fish, and it threw up Jonah upon the dry land.
