1 And Jonah prayed to YHWH his God from the bowels of the fish, VP
2 and he said: “I called out from the distress of mine to YHWH, and He answered me; from the belly of Sheol I cried out—You heard my voice. VP
3 And You cast me [into] the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the current surrounded me; all Your billows and Your waves passed over me. VP
4 And I said, ‘I have been driven out from before Your eyes; yet I will add to look toward the temple of Your holiness.’ VP
5 The waters surrounded me up to the soul, the deep closed around me, the seaweed wrapped around my head. VP
6 To the bases of the mountains I went down; the earth with her bars [was] behind me forever. And You brought up my life from the pit, O YHWH my God. VP
7 At the fainting within me of my soul, I remembered YHWH; my prayer came in to You, to the temple of Your holiness. VP
8 Those guarding vanities of worthlessness leave behind their loving devotion. VP
9 And I, with a voice of thanksgiving, will sacrifice to You; what I have vowed, I will fulfill. Salvation [is] of YHWH.” VP
10 And YHWH spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto the dry land. VP
