Jona 2
1 Potem je Jona iz ribjega trebuha molil h Gospodu, svojemu Bogu
And Jonas prayed to the Lord his God out of the belly of the fish.
2 in rekel: »Zaradi razloga svoje stiske sem klical h Gospodu in me je slišal. Ven iz trebuha pekla sem klical in ti si slišal moj glas. (Sheol h7585)
And he said: I cried out of my affliction to the Lord, and he heard me: I cried out of the belly of hell, and thou hast heard my voice. (Sheol h7585)
3 Kajti vrgel si me v globino, v sredo morij, in poplave so me obkrožile. Vsi tvoji veliki valovi in tvoji valovi so me preleteli.«
And thou hast cast me forth into the deep in the heart of the sea, and a flood hath compassed me: all thy billows, and thy waves have passed over me.
4 Potem sem rekel: »Vržen sem iz tvojega pogleda, vendar bom ponovno gledal k tvojemu svetemu templju.
And I said: I am cast away out of the sight of thy eyes: but yet I shall see thy holy temple again.
5 Vode so me obkrožile, celó do duše, globine so me zaprle naokoli, plevel je bil zavit okoli moje glave.
The waters compassed me about even to the soul: the deep hath closed me round about, the sea hath covered my head.
6 Odšel sem navzdol, k vznožjem gora. Zemlja, s svojimi zapahi, je bila okoli mene na veke, vendar si ti moje življenje privedel gor iz trohnenja, oh Gospod, moj Bog.
I went down to the lowest parts of the mountains: the bars of the earth have shut me up for ever: and thou wilt bring up my life from corruption, O Lord my God.
7 Ko je moja duša slabela znotraj mene, sem se spomnil Gospoda. Moja molitev je vstopila k tebi, v tvoj sveti tempelj.
When my soul was in distress within me, I remembered the Lord: that my prayer may come to thee, unto thy holy temple.
8 Tisti, ki obeležujejo lažnive ničevosti, zapuščajo svoje lastno usmiljenje.
They that are vain observe vanities, forsake their own mercy.
9 Toda jaz ti bom žrtvoval z glasom zahvaljevanja; plačal bom to, kar sem se zaobljubil. Rešitev duš je od Gospoda.«
But I with the voice of praise will sacrifice to thee: I will pay whatsoever I have vowed for my salvation to the Lord.
10 In Gospod je spregovoril ribi in izbljuvala je Jona na kopno zemljo.
And the Lord spoke to the fish: and it vomited out Jonas upon the dry land.
