约拿书 2
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
約拿禱告
2 約拿從魚腹中向耶和華他的 神禱告，
2 說：
“我從患難中求告耶和華，
他就應允我；
我從陰間的深府呼求，
你就垂聽我的聲音。
3 你把我投入深海，
在海洋的深處，
大水環繞我；
你的洪濤、你的波浪，都漫過我。
4 我說：‘我雖從你眼前被趕逐，
我仍要仰望你的聖殿。’
5 眾水包圍我，幾乎置我於死地；
深淵環繞我；
海草纏裹我的頭。
6 我下沉直到山麓，
大地的門閂把我永遠關閉；
耶和華我的 神啊！你卻把我的性命從坑中拉上來。
7 當我心靈疲弱時，
我就思念耶和華；
我的禱告直達你面前，
進入你的聖殿。
8 那敬奉虛妄之偶像的人，
實在是離棄了憐愛他們的 神（“憐愛他們的 神”原文作“他們的恩典”）。
9 至於我，我要帶著感謝的聲音向你獻祭；
我所許的願，我必償還。
救恩是屬於耶和華的。”
10 於是耶和華吩咐那魚，魚就把約拿吐在陸地上。
Jonah 2
King James Version
2 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.
