Jonás 2
Nueva Versión Internacional
2 1 Entonces Jonás oró al Señor su Dios desde el vientre del pez. 2 Dijo:
«En mi angustia clamé al Señor,
y él me respondió.
Desde lo profundo de los dominios de la muerte[a] pedí auxilio,
y tú escuchaste mi clamor.
3 A lo profundo me arrojaste,
al corazón mismo de los mares;
las corrientes me envolvían,
todas tus ondas y tus olas
pasaban sobre mí.
4 Y pensé: “He sido expulsado
de tu presencia;
pero volveré a contemplar
tu santo Templo”.[b]
5 Las aguas me llegaban hasta el cuello,
lo profundo del mar me envolvía;
las algas se me enredaban en la cabeza,
6 arrastrándome a los cimientos de las montañas.
Me tragó la tierra y para siempre
sus cerrojos se cerraron tras de mí.
Pero tú, Señor, Dios mío,
rescataste mi vida de la fosa.
7 »Al sentir que se me iba la vida,
me acordé del Señor,
y mi oración llegó hasta ti,
hasta tu santo Templo.
8 »Los que siguen a ídolos vanos
abandonan el amor de Dios.[c]
9 Yo, en cambio, te ofreceré sacrificios
y cánticos de gratitud.
Cumpliré las promesas que te hice.
¡La salvación viene del Señor!».
10 Entonces el Señor dio una orden y el pez vomitó a Jonás en tierra firme.

New King James Version
Jonah’s Prayer and God’s Answer
2 Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the fish’s belly. 2 And he said:
“Out of the belly of Sheol I cried,
And You heard my voice.
3 (C)For You cast me into the deep,
Into the heart of the seas,
And the floods surrounded me;
(D)All Your billows and Your waves passed over me.
4 (E)Then I said, ‘I have been cast out of Your sight;
Yet I will look again (F)toward Your holy temple.’
5 The (G)waters surrounded me, even to my soul;
The deep closed around me;
Weeds were wrapped around my head.
6 I went down to the [a]moorings of the mountains;
The earth with its bars closed behind me forever;
Yet You have brought up my (H)life from the pit,
O Lord, my God.
7 “When my soul fainted within me,
I remembered the Lord;
(I)And my prayer went up to You,
Into Your holy temple.
8 “Those who regard (J)worthless idols
Forsake their own [b]Mercy.
9 But I will (K)sacrifice to You
With the voice of thanksgiving;
I will pay what I have (L)vowed.
(M)Salvation is of the (N)Lord.”
10 So the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.

Jonah's Prayer
2 Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the belly of the fish, 2 saying,
(A)“I called out to the Lord, out of my distress,
and he answered me;
(B)out of the belly of Sheol I cried,
(C)and you heard my voice.
3 (D)For you cast me into the deep,
into the heart of the seas,
and the flood surrounded me;
(E)all your breakers and your waves
passed over me.
4 (F)Then I said, ‘I am driven away
from your sight;
(G)yet I shall again look
upon your holy temple.’
5 (H)The waters closed in over me (I)to take my life;
the deep surrounded me;
weeds were wrapped about my head.
6 To the roots of the mountains I went down,
to the land whose bars closed upon me forever.
Yet you brought up my life from the pit,
O Lord my God.
7 When my life was fainting away,
I remembered the Lord,
(J)and my prayer came to you,
into your holy temple.
8 (K)Those who pay regard to vain idols
(L)forsake their hope of steadfast love.
9 (M)But I with the voice of thanksgiving
will sacrifice to you;
what I have vowed I will pay.
(N)Salvation belongs to the Lord!”
10 And the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah out upon the dry land.
