Jonah 2 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

Jon 2:1And Jonah prayed unto Jehovah his God out of the fish's belly;
Jon 2:2and he said: I cried by reason of my distress unto Jehovah, and he answered me; Out of the belly of Sheol cried I: thou heardest my voice.
Jon 2:3For thou didst cast me into the depth, into the heart of the seas, And the flood was round about me: All thy breakers and thy billows are gone over me.
Jon 2:4And I said, I am cast out from before thine eyes, Yet will I look again toward thy holy temple.
Jon 2:5The waters encompassed me, to the soul: The deep was round about me, The weeds were wrapped about my head.
Jon 2:6I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; The bars of the earth closed upon me for ever: But thou hast brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah my God.
Jon 2:7When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Jehovah; And my prayer came in unto thee, Into thy holy temple.
Jon 2:8They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
Jon 2:9But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation is of Jehovah.
Jon 2:10And Jehovah commanded the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
