约拿书 2

1 约拿在鱼腹中祷告耶和华─他的

2 :我遭遇患难求告耶和华,你就应允我;从阴间的深处呼求,你就俯我的声音

3 你将我投下渊,就是深处;大水环绕我,你的波浪洪涛都漫过我身。

4 :我从你眼前虽被驱逐,我仍要仰望你的殿。

5 诸水环绕我,几乎淹没我;深渊围住我;海草缠绕我的

6 山根的门将我永远关住。耶和华─我的啊,你却将我的性命从坑中救出来。

7 我心在我里面发昏的时候,我就想念耶和华。我的祷告进入你的殿,达到你的面前。

8 那信奉虚无之神的人,离弃怜爱他们的主;

9 但我必用感谢的声音献祭与你。我所许的愿,我必偿还。救恩出於耶和华

10 耶和华吩咐鱼,鱼就把约拿吐在旱地上。
