Jonah 2
1. Then Jonah prayed * unto the LORD his God out of the fish's belly,
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.
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.
4. Then I said * , I am cast out * of thy sight; yet I will look * again * toward thy holy temple.
5. The waters compassed me about * , even to the soul: the depth closed me round about * , the weeds were wrapped about * my head.
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.
7. When my soul fainted * within me I remembered * the LORD: and my prayer came in * unto thee, into thine holy temple.
8. They that observe * lying vanities forsake * their own mercy.
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.
10. And the LORD spake * unto the fish, and it vomited out * Jonah upon the dry land.
