Jonah’s Prayer | ||||
 NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 1 Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the stomach of the fish, | 1 Then Jonah prayed unto the LORD his God out of the fish's belly, | 1 Then Jonah prayed unto Jehovah his God out of the fish's belly. | 1 And Jonas prayed to the Lord his God out of the belly of the fish. | 1 And Jonah prayeth unto Jehovah his God from the bowels of the fish. | 2 and he said, "I called out of my distress to the LORD, And He answered me. I cried for help from the depth of Sheol; You heard my voice. | 2 And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the LORD, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice. | 2 And he said, I called by reason of mine affliction unto Jehovah, And he answered me; Out of the belly of Sheol cried I, And thou heardest my voice. | 2 And he said: I cried out of my affliction to the Lord, and he heard me: I cried out of the belly of hell, and thou hast heard my voice. | 2 And he saith: I called, because of my distress, to Jehovah, And He doth answer me, From the belly of sheol I have cried, Thou hast heard my voice. | 3 "For You had cast me into the deep, Into the heart of the seas, And the current engulfed me. All Your breakers and billows passed over me. | 3 For thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods compassed me about: all thy billows and thy waves passed over me. | 3 For thou didst cast me into the depth, in the heart of the seas, And the flood was round about me; All thy waves and thy billows passed over me. | 3 And thou hast cast me forth into the deep in the heart of the sea, and a flood hath compassed me: all thy billows, and thy waves have passed over me. | 3 When Thou dost cast me into the deep, Into the heart of the seas, Then the flood doth compass me, All Thy breakers and Thy billows have passed over me. | 4 "So I said, 'I have been expelled from Your sight. Nevertheless I will look again toward Your holy temple.' | 4 Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple. | 4 And I said, I am cast out from before thine eyes; Yet I will look again toward thy holy temple. | 4 And I said: I am cast away out of the sight of thy eyes: but yet I shall see thy holy temple again. | 4 And I -- I said: I have been cast out from before Thine eyes, (Yet I add to look unto Thy holy temple!) | 5 "Water encompassed me to the point of death. The great deep engulfed me, Weeds were wrapped around my head. | 5 The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head. | 5 The waters compassed me about, even to the soul; The deep was round about me; The weeds were wrapped about my head. | 5 The waters compassed me about even to the soul: the deep hath closed me round about, the sea hath covered my head. | 5 Compassed me have waters unto the soul, The deep doth compass me, The weed is bound to my head. | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 6 "I descended to the roots of the mountains. The earth with its bars was around me forever, But You have brought up my life from the pit, O LORD my God. | 6 I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O LORD my God. | 6 I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; The earth with its bars closed upon me for ever: Yet hast thou brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah my God. | 6 I went down to the lowest parts of the mountains: the bars of the earth have shut me up for ever: and thou wilt bring up my life from corruption, O Lord my God. | 6 To the cuttings of mountains I have come down, The earth, her bars are behind me to the age. And Thou bringest up from the pit my life, O Jehovah my God. | 7 "While I was fainting away, I remembered the LORD, And my prayer came to You, Into Your holy temple. | 7 When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple. | 7 When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Jehovah; And my prayer came in unto thee, into thy holy temple. | 7 When my soul was in distress within me, I remembered the Lord: that my prayer may come to thee, unto thy holy temple. | 7 In the feebleness within me of my soul Jehovah I have remembered, And come in unto Thee doth my prayer, Unto Thy holy temple. | 8 "Those who regard vain idols Forsake their faithfulness, | 8 They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy. | 8 They that regard lying vanities Forsake their own mercy. | 8 They that are vain observe vanities, forsake their own mercy. | 8 Those observing lying vanities their own mercy forsake. | 9 But I will sacrifice to You With the voice of thanksgiving. That which I have vowed I will pay. Salvation is from the LORD." | 9 But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the LORD. | 9 But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation is of Jehovah. | 9 But I with the voice of praise will sacrifice to thee: I will pay whatsoever I have vowed for my salvation to the Lord. | 9 And I -- with a voice of thanksgiving -- I sacrifice to Thee, That which I have vowed I complete, Salvation is of Jehovah. | 10 Then the LORD commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah up onto the dry land. | 10 And the LORD spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land. | 10 And Jehovah spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land. | 10 And the Lord spoke to the fish: and it vomited out Jonas upon the dry land. | 10 And Jehovah saith to the fish, and it vomiteth out Jonah on the dry land. |
