2:1 Then Jonah prayed to Jehovah his God from the stomach of the fish,
约拿从鱼腹中祷告耶和华他的神，
2:2 And he said, I called out because of my distress To Jehovah, and He answered me; From the belly of Sheol I cried out for help; You heard my voice.
说，我因急难呼求耶和华，祂就应允我；我从阴间的深处呼救，你就听了我的声音。
2:3 You flung me into the depths, into the heart of the sea, And the flood surrounded me; All Your breakers and Your billows Passed over me.
你将我投下深渊，到了海心；洪流环绕我；你的波浪洪涛，都漫过我身。
2:4 Therefore I said, I have been driven out From before Your eyes; Yet I will look again Toward Your holy temple.
我说，我从你眼前虽被驱逐，我仍要仰望你的圣殿。
2:5 Water encompassed me, even to my soul; The deep surrounded me; Seaweed was wrapped about my head.
诸水环绕我，几乎淹没我；深渊围住我，海草缠绕我的头。
2:6 To the bottom of the sea mountains I went down; The earth with its bars was around me forever. Then You have brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah my God.
我下到海中的山根；地的门闩将我永远拦住。耶和华我的神阿，你却将我的性命从坑中救上来。
2:7 When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Jehovah, And my prayer came to You In Your holy temple.
我的魂在我里面发昏的时候，我就想念耶和华；我的祷告进入你的圣殿，达到你面前。
2:8 Those who regard empty vanities Forsake the lovingkindness to them;
那些尊奉虚无不实之神的人，离弃主对他们的慈爱；
2:9 But I will sacrifice to You With the voice of thanksgiving; That which I have vowed I will fully pay. Salvation is of Jehovah.
但我必用感谢的声音献祭与你；我所许的愿，我必偿还。拯救属于耶和华。
2:10 And Jehovah spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah out onto the dry land.
