1 ( 2 b) And Ionas prayed vnto the Lorde hys God, out of the fysshes bely,
3 and sayd. In my trouble I called vnto the Lorde, and he herde me: out of the bely of hell I cryed, & thou herdest my voyce.
4 Thou haddest cast me downe depe in the myddest of the see, & the floude compased me aboute: yee, all thy waues and roules of water went ouer me,
5 I thought that I had bene cast awaye out of thy syght: but I will yet agayne loke towarde thy holy temple.
6 The waters compased me, euen to the very soule: the depe laye aboute me, & the wedes were wrapte aboute myne head.
7 I went downe to the botome of the hylles, and was barred in with earth for euer. But thou, O Lorde my God, hast brought vp my lyfe agayne out of corrupcion.
8 When my soule fainted wythin me, I thought vpon the Lorde: & my prayer came in vnto the, euen into thy holy temple.
9 They that hold of vayne vanyties, wyll forsake his mercy.
