Yonah’s prayer

Yna 2:2–11

2And Yonah prayed to Yahweh his god from the belly of the fish. 3And he said,

“I called to you Yahweh in my distress and you answered me. I cried for help from the valley of death and you heard my voice. 4You have thrown me right into the deep—the heart of the sea; and a flood surrounds me. All your waves are crashing over me.

5And I said, ‘I have been driven out of your sight however I will look again towards your holy temple.’

6I was up to my neck in the waters; it was deep all around me. There were reeds wrapped around my head.

7I went down to the foundations of the mountains; barred from returning to the land. But you saved my life from the grave, Yahweh my god.

8When my life was draining away from me, I remembered you, Yahweh, and my prayer reached you in your holy temple.

9Those who worship lifeless gods abandon their allegiance to you.

10But I’ll speak out my gratitude as I sacrifice to you. I’ve vowed this and I’ll do it, because Yahweh is my rescuer.”

11Then Yahweh spoke to the fish and it vomitted Yonah up onto the land.
