Jona 2
1 Potem je Jona iz ribjega trebuha molil h Gospodu, svojemu Bogu
Then Jonah prayed to the LORD, his God, out of the fish’s belly.
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)
He said, “I called because of my affliction to the LORD. He answered me. Out of the belly of Sheol I cried. You 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.«
For you threw me into the depths, in the heart of the seas. The flood was all around me. All your waves and your billows passed over me.
4 Potem sem rekel: »Vržen sem iz tvojega pogleda, vendar bom ponovno gledal k tvojemu svetemu templju.
I said, ‘I have been banished from your sight; yet I will look again toward your holy temple.’
5 Vode so me obkrožile, celó do duše, globine so me zaprle naokoli, plevel je bil zavit okoli moje glave.
The waters surrounded me, even to the soul. The deep was around me. The weeds were wrapped around 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 bottoms of the mountains. The earth barred me in forever; yet you have brought my life up from the pit, 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 fainted within me, I remembered the LORD. My prayer came in to you, into your holy temple.
8 Tisti, ki obeležujejo lažnive ničevosti, zapuščajo svoje lastno usmiljenje.
Those who regard vain idols 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 will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving. I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation belongs to the LORD.”
10 In Gospod je spregovoril ribi in izbljuvala je Jona na kopno zemljo.
Then the LORD spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah on the dry land.
