1 Then Jonah prayed to Yahweh, his God, out of the fish’s belly. 2 He said, 3 For you threw me into the depths, 4 I said, ‘I have been banished from your sight; 5 The waters surrounded me, 6 I went down to the bottoms of the mountains. 7 “When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Yahweh. 8 Those who regard lying vanities forsake their own mercy. 9 But I will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving.
10 Yahweh spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah on the dry land.
