- 1
Then Jonah prayed to the LORD, his God, out of the fish’s belly.
- 2
He said, “I called because of my affliction to the LORD. He answered me. Out of the belly of Sheol I cried. You heard my voice.
- 3
For you threw me into the depths, in the heart of the seas. The flood was all around me. All your waves and your billows passed over me.
- 4
I said, ‘I have been banished from your sight; yet I will look again toward your holy temple.’
- 5
The waters surrounded me, even to the soul. The deep was around me. The weeds were wrapped around my head.
- 6
I went down to the bottoms of the mountains. The earth barred me in forever; yet you have brought my life up from the pit, LORD my God.
- 7
“When my soul fainted within me, I remembered the LORD. My prayer came in to you, into your holy temple.
- 8
Those who regard vain idols forsake their own mercy.
- 9
But I will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving. I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation belongs to the LORD.”
- 10
Then the LORD spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah on the dry land.

Então Jonas orou ao SENHOR, seu Deus, do ventre do peixe.
- 2
Ele disse, “Clamei ao SENHOR por causa da minha aflição. Ele me respondeu. Do ventre do Seol eu gritei. Tu ouviste a minha voz.
- 3
Pois tu me lançaste nas profundezas, no coração dos mares. A correnteza me cercou. Todas as tuas ondas e as tuas vagas passaram sobre mim.
- 4
Eu disse: ‘Fui banido da tua presença; contudo, olharei de novo para o teu santo templo.’
- 5
As águas me cercaram, até a alma. O abismo estava ao meu redor. As algas se enrolaram na minha cabeça.
- 6
Eu desci até os fundamentos das montanhas. A terra me trancou para sempre; contudo, tu fizeste a minha vida subir da cova, SENHOR meu Deus.
- 7
“Quando a minha alma desfaleceu dentro de mim, eu me lembrei do SENHOR. A minha oração chegou a ti, no teu santo templo.
- 8
Aqueles que se apegam a ídolos vãos abandonam a sua própria misericórdia.
- 9
Mas eu sacrificarei a ti com voz de ação de graças. Pagarei o que votei. A salvação pertence ao SENHOR.”
- 10
Então o SENHOR falou ao peixe, e ele vomitou Jonas na terra seca.
