Rotherham - Jonah - 2

2:1  Then prayed Jonah, unto Yahweh, his God,—out of the belly of the fish;

2:2  and said—I cried—out of my distress—unto Yahweh, and he answered me,—Out of the belly of hades, called I, Thou didst hear my voice.

2:3  For thou hast cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and, a flood, enveloped me,—All thy breakers and thy rolling waves, over me, passed.

2:4  And, I, said, I am driven out from before thine eyes,—Yet will I again have regard unto thy holy temple:

2:5  The waters, encompassed me, to the peril of my life, The roaring deep, enveloped me,—The sea-weed, was wrapped about my head:

2:6  To the roots of the mountains, went I down, As for the earth, her bars, were about me, age-abidingly,—Then didst thou bring up—out of the pit—my life, O Yahweh my God.

2:7  When my soul, darkened itself over me, Yahweh, I remembered,—and my prayer, came in unto thee, unto thy holy temple.

2:8  They who take heed to the vanities of falsehood, do, their own lovingkindness, forsake.

2:9  But, I, with the voice of praise, will sacrifice unto thee, What I have vowed, I will pay,—Salvation, belongeth to Yahweh!

2:10  So then Yahweh spake unto the fish,—and it vomited out Jonah, upon the dry land.
