title: "Jonah 2 KJV — REAL BIBLE BELIEVERS"
description: "Then Jonah prayed unto the LORD his God out of the fish’s belly, 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. 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. Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple. The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head. 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. When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple. They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy. But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the LORD. ¶ And the LORD spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land."

 1 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*.
