Jonah 2
Maori Bible
2 Katahi a Hona ka inoi ki a Ihowa, ki tona Atua, i roto i te kopu o te ika,
2 I mea ia, I karanga ahau, he ngakau mamae noku, ki a Ihowa; a whakahoki mai ana ia ki ahau; i tangi atu ahau i roto i te kopu o te reinga, a whakarongo ana koe ki toku reo.
3 I maka hoki ahau e koe ki te rire, ki waenga moana, a karapotia ana ahau e nga roma; tika ana au tuatea katoa me au ngaru i runga i ahau.
4 Na ka mea ahau, Kua oti ahau te pei i mua i ou kanohi; otiia tera ahau e titiro atu ano ki tou temepara tapu.
5 Karapotia ana ahau e te wai, tae tonu iho ki te wairua; i oku taha katoa te rire a taka noa; he rimu nga takai o toku mahunga.
6 I haere ahau ki raro ki nga take o nga maunga; kopia ana ahau e te whenua me ona tutaki ake ake; heoi whakaputaina ake ana e koe toku ora i roto i te poka, e Ihowa, e toku Atua.
7 I te hemonga o toku wairua i roto i ahau, i mahara ahau ki a Ihowa: i tae atu ano taku inoi ki a koe ki tou temepara tapu.
8 Ko te hunga e pupuri ana i nga mea tekateka noa e whakarere ana i te atawhai mo ratou.
9 Ko ahau ia ka mea patunga tapu ki a koe i runga i te reo whakawhetai; ka whakamana e ahau aku kupu taurangi. Na Ihowa te whakaoranga.
10 Na ka korero a Ihowa ki te ika, a ka ruakina e tera a Hona ki te wahi maroke.

Jonah 2
New International Version
2 1 [a]From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord his God. 2 He said:
“In my distress I called(A) to the Lord,(B)
and he answered me.
From deep in the realm of the dead(C) I called for help,
and you listened to my cry.
3 You hurled me into the depths,(D)
into the very heart of the seas,
and the currents swirled about me;
all your waves(E) and breakers
swept over me.(F)
4 I said, ‘I have been banished
from your sight;(G)
yet I will look again
toward your holy temple.’(H)
5 The engulfing waters threatened me,[b]
the deep surrounded me;
seaweed was wrapped around my head.(I)
6 To the roots of the mountains(J) I sank down;
the earth beneath barred me in forever.
But you, Lord my God,
brought my life up from the pit.(K)
7 “When my life was ebbing away,
I remembered(L) you, Lord,
and my prayer(M) rose to you,
to your holy temple.(N)
8 “Those who cling to worthless idols(O)
turn away from God’s love for them.
9 But I, with shouts of grateful praise,(P)
will sacrifice(Q) to you.
What I have vowed(R) I will make good.
I will say, ‘Salvation(S) comes from the Lord.’”
10 And the Lord commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.

2 Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God out of the fish's belly,
2 And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the Lord, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice.
3 For thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods compassed me about: all thy billows and thy waves passed over me.
4 Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.
5 The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.
6 I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O Lord my God.
7 When my soul fainted within me I remembered the Lord: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.
8 They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
9 But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the Lord.
10 And the Lord spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.
