Previous chapter, Next chapter, Previous Book, Next Book
(Jon 2:1) Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God out of the fish's belly,
(Jon 2:2) And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the Lord, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, {and} thou heardest my voice.
(Jon 2:3) For thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods compassed me about: all thy billows and thy waves passed over me.
(Jon 2:4) Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.
(Jon 2:5) The waters compassed me about, {even} to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.
(Jon 2:6) I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars {was} about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O Lord my God.
(Jon 2:7) When my soul fainted within me I remembered the Lord: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.
(Jon 2:8) They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
(Jon 2:9) But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay {that} that I have vowed. Salvation {is} of the Lord.
(Jon 2:10) And the Lord spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry {land}.
