Jonáš 2
Bible 21
V břiše ryby
2 Hospodin však zařídil, aby Jonáše spolkla jedna veliká ryba, a Jonáš v jejím břiše strávil tři dny a tři noci. 2 V břiše té ryby se Jonáš modlil k Hospodinu, svému Bohu, 3 a řekl toto:
„Volal jsem ve své úzkosti
k Hospodinu, ať mi odpoví.
Křičel jsem z útrob záhrobí,
abys vyslyšel mé volání.
4 Uvrhl jsi mě do hlubin,
doprostřed moře mě strhl vír.
Pohřben jsem tvými příboji,
zavalen tvými vlnami.
5 Myslel jsem, že jsem odehnán,
že na mě nespočineš očima.
Jak bych se ještě mohl podívat
na tvůj svatý chrám?
6 Voda mě obklopila ze všech stran,
kolem dokola je hlubina,
má hlava tone v chaluhách.
7 Ke kořenům hor se propadám,
závora země za mnou navždy zapadla.
Tys mě však z propasti vyzvedl,
Hospodine, Bože můj!
8 Když už mě život opouštěl,
na Hospodina jsem se rozpomněl.
Má modlitba k tobě dolehla,
našla tvůj svatý chrám.
9 Ti, kdo marné nicotnosti ctí,
sami se zbavují věrnosti.
10 Já ti však s vděčným voláním
přinášet budu oběti.
Co slíbil jsem, to vyplním.
U Hospodina je spasení!“
11 Hospodin pak té rybě přikázal, ať Jonáše vyvrhne na pevninu.
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.
Jonah 2
New King James Version
Jonah’s Prayer and God’s Answer
2 Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the fish’s belly. 2 And he said:
“Out of the belly of Sheol I cried,
And You heard my voice.
3 (C)For You cast me into the deep,
Into the heart of the seas,
And the floods surrounded me;
(D)All Your billows and Your waves passed over me.
4 (E)Then I said, ‘I have been cast out of Your sight;
Yet I will look again (F)toward Your holy temple.’
5 The (G)waters surrounded me, even to my soul;
The deep closed around me;
Weeds were wrapped around my head.
6 I went down to the [a]moorings of the mountains;
The earth with its bars closed behind me forever;
Yet You have brought up my (H)life from the pit,
O Lord, my God.
7 “When my soul fainted within me,
I remembered the Lord;
(I)And my prayer went up to You,
Into Your holy temple.
8 “Those who regard (J)worthless idols
Forsake their own [b]Mercy.
9 But I will (K)sacrifice to You
With the voice of thanksgiving;
I will pay what I have (L)vowed.
(M)Salvation is of the (N)Lord.”
10 So the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.
