Jonah 2:7-9

Good News Translation

⁷ When I felt my life slipping away,
    then, O Lord, I prayed to you,
    and in your holy Temple you heard me.
⁸ Those who worship worthless idols
    have abandoned their loyalty to you.
⁹ But I will sing praises to you;
    I will offer you a sacrifice
    and do what I have promised.
Salvation comes from the Lord!”
