Jonah’s Prayer

2THEN JONAH prayed to the Lord his God from the fish's belly,H3124H6419H3068H430H1710H45782And said, I cried out of my distress to the Lord, and He heard me; out of the belly of Sheol cried I, and You heard my voice.H559H7121H6869H3068H6030H990H7585H7768H8085H69633For You cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the floods surrounded me; all Your waves and Your billows passed over me.H7993H4688H3824H3220H5104H5437H4867H1530H56744Then I said, I have been cast out of Your presence {and} Your sight; yet I will look again toward Your holy temple.H559H1644H5869H5027H3254H6944H19645The waters compassed me about, even to [the extinction of] life; the abyss surrounded me, the seaweed was wrapped about my head.H4325H661H5315H8415H5437H5488H2280H72186I went down to the bottoms {and} the very roots of the mountains; the earth with its bars closed behind me forever. Yet You have brought up my life from the pit {and} corruption, O Lord my God.H3381H7095H2022H776H1280H5769H5927H2416H7845H3068H4307When my soul fainted upon me [crushing me], I earnestly {and} seriously remembered the Lord; and my prayer came to You, into Your holy temple.H5315H5848H2142H3068H8605H935H6944H19648Those who pay regard to false, useless, {and} worthless idols forsake their own [Source of] mercy {and} loving-kindness.H8104H7723H1892H5800H26179But as for me, I will sacrifice to You with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation {and} deliverance belong to the Lord!H2076H6963H8426H7999H5087H3444H306810And the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.H3068H559H1709H6958H3124H3004

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
