Oración de Jonás

¹Entonces oró Jonás al SEÑOR su Dios desde el vientre del pez^a, 2 y dijo:En¹ mi angustia clamé al SEÑOR^a,y Él me respondió.Desde el seno² del Seol³ pedí auxilio,y tú escuchaste mi voz^b;

3 pues me habías echado a lo profundo,en el corazón de los mares,y la corriente me envolvió¹^a;todas tus encrespadas olas y tus ondas pasaron sobre mí^b.4 Entonces dije: «He sido expulsado de delante de tus ojos^a;sin embargo volveré a mirar hacia tu santo templo^b».5 Me rodearon las aguas hasta el alma,el gran abismo me envolvió¹^a,las algas se enredaron a mi cabeza.6 Descendí hasta las raíces de los montes^a,la tierra con sus cerrojos me ponía cerco para siempre^b;pero tú sacaste de la fosa¹ mi vida^c, oh SEÑOR, Dios mío.7 Cuando en mí desfallecía mi alma^a,del SEÑOR me acordé^b;y mi oración llegó hasta ti^c,hasta tu santo templo^d.8 Los que confían en vanos ídolos¹^asu propia misericordia abandonan,9 mas yo con voz de acción de graciaste ofreceré sacrificios^a.Lo que prometí, pagaré^b.La salvación es del SEÑOR^c.

10 Entonces el SEÑOR dio orden al pez^a, yeste vomitó a Jonás en tierra firme.

Jonah’s Prayer

¹Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God ^afrom the stomach of the fish, 2 and he said,“I ^acalled out of my distress to the LORD,And He answered me.I cried for help from the ¹depth of ^bSheol;You heard my voice.

3 “For You had ^acast me into the deep,Into the heart of the seas,And the current ¹engulfed me.All Your ^bbreakers and billows passed over me.4 “So I said, ‘I have been ^aexpelled from ¹Your sight.Nevertheless I will look again ^btoward Your holy temple.’5 “^aWater encompassed me to the ¹point of death.The great ^bdeep ²engulfed me,Weeds were wrapped around my head.6 “I ^adescended to the roots of the mountains.The earth with its ^bbars was around me forever,But You have ^cbrought up my life from ¹the pit, O LORD my God.7 “While ¹I was ^afainting away,I ^bremembered the LORD,And my ^cprayer came to You,Into ^dYour holy temple.8 “Those who ^aregard ¹vain idolsForsake their faithfulness,9 But I will ^asacrifice to YouWith the voice of thanksgiving.That which I have vowed I will ^bpay.^cSalvation is from the LORD.”

10 Then the LORD commanded the ^afish, and it vomited Jonah up onto the dry land.

Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God ^afrom the stomach of the fish, 2 and said,“I ^acalled out of my trouble and distress to the LORD,And He answered me;Out of the belly of ^bSheol I cried for help,And You heard my voice. Ps 120:1; 130:1; 142:1; Lam 3:55-58

3 “For You ^acast me into the deep,Into the deep heart of the seas,And the currents surrounded and engulfed me;All Your ^bbreakers and billowing waves passed over me. Ps 42:74 “Then I said, ‘I have been ^acast out of Your sight.Nevertheless I will look again ^btoward Your holy temple.’ Ps 31:225 “The ^awaters surrounded me, to the point of death.The ^bgreat deep engulfed me,Seaweed was wrapped around my head. Ps 69:1; Lam 3:546 “I ^adescended to the very roots of the mountains.The earth with its ^bbars closed behind me bolting me in forever,Yet You have ^cbrought up my life from the pit (death) , O LORD my God.7 “When my soul was ^afainting within me,I ^bremembered the LORD,And my ^cprayer came to You,Into ^dYour holy temple.8 “Those who ^aregard and follow worthless idols¹Turn away from their living source of mercy and lovingkindness.9 “But as for me, I will ^asacrifice to YouWith the voice of thanksgiving;I shall ^bpay that which I have vowed.^cSalvation is from the LORD!”

10 So the LORD commanded the ^afish, and it vomited Jonah up onto the dry land.
