Jonah 2
1 And Jonah prayed to the Lord, his God, from the belly of the fish.
Y oró Jonás desde el vientre del pez a Jehová su Dios,
2 And he said: “I cried out to the Lord from my tribulation, and he heeded me. From the belly of hell, I cried out, and you heeded my voice. (Sheol h7585)
Y dijo: Clamé de mi tribulación a Jehová, y él me oyó: del vientre del infierno clamé, y oíste mi voz. (Sheol h7585)
3 And you have thrown me into the deep, in the heart of the sea, and a flood has encircled me. All your whirlpools and your waves have passed over me.
Echásteme en el profundo, en medio de las mares, y la corriente me rodeó: todas tus ondas y tus olas pasaron sobre mí.
4 And I said: I am expelled from the sight of your eyes. Yet, truly, I will see your holy temple again.
Y yo dije: Echado soy de delante de tus ojos, mas aun veré el templo santo tuyo.
5 The waters surrounded me, even to the soul. The abyss has walled me in. The ocean has covered my head.
Las aguas me rodearon hasta el alma, el abismo me rodeó, el junco se enguedejó a mi cabeza.
6 I descended to the base of the mountains. The bars of the earth have enclosed me forever. And you will raise up my life from corruption, Lord, my God.
Descendí a las raíces de los montes: la tierra echó sus cerraduras sobre mí para siempre: mas tú sacaste mi vida de la sepultura, o! Jehová Dios mío.
7 When my soul was in anguish within me, I called to mind the Lord, so that my prayer might come to you, to your holy temple.
Cuando mi alma desfallecía en mí, me acordé de Jehová; y mi oración entró hasta ti en tu santo templo.
8 Those who in vain observe vanities, abandon their own mercy.
Los que guardan las vanidades vanas, su misericordia desamparan.
9 But I, with a voice of praise, will sacrifice to you. I will repay whatever I have vowed to the Lord, because of my salvation.”
Yo empero con voz de alabanza te sacrificaré: pagaré lo que prometí: a Jehová sea el salvamento.
10 And the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.
Y mandó Jehová al pez, y vomitó a Jonás en tierra.
