Jonah 2
1 Then Jonah made prayer to the Lord his God from the inside of the fish, and said,
Et oravit Jonas ad Dominum Deum suum de ventre piscis,
2 In my trouble I was crying to the Lord, and he gave me an answer; out of the deepest underworld I sent up a cry, and you gave ear to my voice. (Sheol h7585)
et dixit: Clamavi de tribulatione mea ad Dominum, et exaudivit me; de ventre inferi clamavi, et exaudisti vocem meam. (Sheol h7585)
3 For you have put me down into the deep, into the heart of the sea; and the river was round about me; all your waves and your rolling waters went over me.
Et projecisti me in profundum in corde maris, et flumen circumdedit me: omnes gurgites tui, et fluctus tui super me transierunt.
4 And I said, I have been sent away from before your eyes; how may I ever again see your holy Temple?
Et ego dixi: Abjectus sum a conspectu oculorum tuorum; verumtamen rursus videbo templum sanctum tuum.
5 The waters were circling round me, even to the neck; the deep was about me; the sea-grass was twisted round my head.
Circumdederunt me aquæ usque ad animam: abyssus vallavit me, pelagus operuit caput meum.
6 I went down to the bases of the mountains; as for the earth, her walls were about me for ever: but you have taken up my life from the underworld, O Lord my God.
Ad extrema montium descendi; terræ vectes concluserunt me in æternum: et sublevabis de corruptione vitam meam, Domine Deus meus.
7 When my soul in me was overcome, I kept the memory of the Lord: and my prayer came in to you, into your holy Temple.
Cum angustiaretur in me anima mea, Domini recordatus sum: ut veniat ad te oratio mea, ad templum sanctum tuum.
8 The worshippers of false gods have given up their only hope.
Qui custodiunt vanitates frustra, misericordiam suam derelinquunt.
9 But I will make an offering to you with the voice of praise; I will give effect to my oaths. Salvation is the Lord's.
Ego autem in voce laudis immolabo tibi: quæcumque vovi, reddam pro salute Domino.
10 And at the Lord's order, the fish sent Jonah out of its mouth on to the dry land.
Et dixit Dominus pisci, et evomuit Jonam in aridam.
