Jonah 2

Clementine Vulgate · Berean Standard Bible

2:1
Et præparavit Dominus piscem grandem ut deglutiret Jonam : et erat Jonas in ventre piscis tribus diebus et tribus noctibus.
From inside the fish, Jonah prayed to the LORD his God,
2:2
Et oravit Jonas ad Dominum Deum suum de ventre piscis,
saying: “In my distress I called to the LORD, and He answered me. From the belly of Sheol I called for help, and You heard my voice.
2:3
et dixit : Clamavi de tribulatione mea ad Dominum, et exaudivit me ; de ventre inferi clamavi, et exaudisti vocem meam.
For You cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the current swirled about me; all Your breakers and waves swept over me.
2:4
Et projecisti me in profundum in corde maris, et flumen circumdedit me : omnes gurgites tui, et fluctus tui super me transierunt.
At this, I said, ‘I have been banished from Your sight; yet I will look once more toward Your holy temple.’
2:5
Et ego dixi : Abjectus sum a conspectu oculorum tuorum ; verumtamen rursus videbo templum sanctum tuum.
The waters engulfed me to take my life; the watery depths closed around me; the seaweed wrapped around my head.
2:6
Circumdederunt me aquæ usque ad animam : abyssus vallavit me, pelagus operuit caput meum.
To the roots of the mountains I descended; the earth beneath me barred me in forever! But You raised my life from the pit, O LORD my God!
2:7
Ad extrema montium descendi ; terræ vectes concluserunt me in æternum : et sublevabis de corruptione vitam meam, Domine Deus meus.
As my life was fading away, I remembered the LORD. My prayer went up to You, to Your holy temple.
2:8
Cum angustiaretur in me anima mea, Domini recordatus sum : ut veniat ad te oratio mea, ad templum sanctum tuum.
Those who cling to worthless idols forsake His loving devotion.
2:9
Qui custodiunt vanitates frustra, misericordiam suam derelinquunt.
But I, with the voice of thanksgiving, will sacrifice to You. I will fulfill what I have vowed. Salvation is from the LORD!”
Ego autem in voce laudis immolabo tibi : quæcumque vovi, reddam pro salute Domino.
And the LORD commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.
Et dixit Dominus pisci, et evomuit Jonam in aridam.
