< Jonah 2 >

1 Then Ionah prayed vnto the Lord his God out of the fishes belly,
Et oravit Jonas ad Dominum Deum suum de ventre piscis,
2 And said, I cryed in mine affliction vnto the Lord, and he heard me: out of the bellie of hell cryed I, and thou heardest my voyce. (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 thou haddest cast me into the bottome in the middes of the sea, and the floods compassed me about: all thy surges, and all thy waues passed ouer me.
Et projecisti me in profundum in corde maris, et flumen circumdedit me: omnes gurgites tui, et fluctus tui super me transierunt.
4 Then I saide, I am cast away out of thy sight: yet will I looke againe towarde thine holy Temple.
Et ego dixi: Abjectus sum a conspectu oculorum tuorum; verumtamen rursus videbo templum sanctum tuum.
5 The waters compassed me about vnto the soule: the depth closed me rounde about, and the weedes were wrapt about mine head.
Circumdederunt me aquæ usque ad animam: abyssus vallavit me, pelagus operuit caput meum.
6 I went downe to the bottome of the moutaines: the earth with her barres was about me for euer, yet hast thou brought vp my life from the pit, 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 soule fainted within me, I remembred the Lord: and my prayer came vnto thee, into thine holy Temple.
Cum angustiaretur in me anima mea, Domini recordatus sum: ut veniat ad te oratio mea, ad templum sanctum tuum.
8 They that waite vpon lying vanities, forsake their owne mercie.
Qui custodiunt vanitates frustra, misericordiam suam derelinquunt.
9 But I will sacrifice vnto thee with the voice of thankesgiuing, and will pay that that I haue vowed: saluation is of the Lord.
Ego autem in voce laudis immolabo tibi: quæcumque vovi, reddam pro salute Domino.
10 And the Lord spake vnto the fish, and it cast out Ionah vpon the dry lande.
Et dixit Dominus pisci, et evomuit Jonam in aridam.
