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.

2 (02-2) Allora Giona pregò l'Eterno, il suo DIO, dal ventre del pesce e disse:
2 (02-3) «Nella mia sventura ho gridato all'Eterno ed egli mi ha risposto dal grembo dello Sceol, ho gridato e tu hai udito la mia voce.
3 (02-4) Mi hai gettato in un luogo profondo, nel cuore dei mari, la corrente mi ha circondato e tutti i tuoi flutti e le tue onde mi sono passati sopra.
4 (02-5) Allora ho detto: Sono stato scacciato dalla tua presenza. Eppure guarderò ancora verso il tuo santo tempio.
5 (02-6) Le acque mi hanno circondato fino all'anima, l'abisso mi ha avvolto, le alghe si sono avvolte intorno al mio capo.
6 (02-7) Sono disceso fino alle fondamenta dei monti, la terra chiuse le sue sbarre dietro a me per sempre, ma tu hai fatto risalire la mia vita dalla fossa, o Eterno, mio DIO.
7 (02-8) Quando la mia anima veniva meno dentro di me, mi sono ricordato dell'Eterno, e la mia preghiera è giunta fino a te, nel tuo santo tempio.
8 (02-9) Quelli che riguardano alle vanità bugiarde abbandonano la fonte stessa della loro grazia.
9 (02-10) Ma io con voci di lode ti offrirò sacrifici a e adempirò i voti che ho fatto. La salvezza, appartiene all'Eterno».
10 (02-11) Allora l'Eterno parlò al pesce e il pesce vomitò Giona sull'asciutto.

New International Version
2 1 [a]From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord his God. 2 He said:
“In my distress I called(A) to the Lord,(B)
and he answered me.
From deep in the realm of the dead(C) I called for help,
and you listened to my cry.
3 You hurled me into the depths,(D)
into the very heart of the seas,
and the currents swirled about me;
all your waves(E) and breakers
swept over me.(F)
4 I said, ‘I have been banished
from your sight;(G)
yet I will look again
toward your holy temple.’(H)
5 The engulfing waters threatened me,[b]
the deep surrounded me;
seaweed was wrapped around my head.(I)
6 To the roots of the mountains(J) I sank down;
the earth beneath barred me in forever.
But you, Lord my God,
brought my life up from the pit.(K)
7 “When my life was ebbing away,
I remembered(L) you, Lord,
and my prayer(M) rose to you,
to your holy temple.(N)
8 “Those who cling to worthless idols(O)
turn away from God’s love for them.
9 But I, with shouts of grateful praise,(P)
will sacrifice(Q) to you.
What I have vowed(R) I will make good.
I will say, ‘Salvation(S) comes from the Lord.’”
10 And the Lord commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.
