PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Και προσηυχήθη Ιωνάς προς Κύριον τον Θεόν αυτού εκ της κοιλίας του κήτους,
·
2 Και είπεν, Εβόησα εν τη θλίψει μου προς τον Κύριον, και εισήκουσέ μου· εκ κοιλίας άδου εβόησα, και ήκουσας της φωνής μου.
·
3 Διότι με έρριψας εις τα βάθη, εις την καρδίαν της θαλάσσης, και ρεύματα με περιεκύκλωσαν· πάσαι αι τρικυμίαι σου και τα κύματά σου διήλθον επάνωθέν μου.
·
4 Και εγώ είπα, Απερρίφθην απ' έμπροσθεν των οφθαλμών σου· όμως θέλω επιβλέψει πάλιν εις τον ναόν τον άγιόν σου.
·
5 Τα ύδατα με περιεκύκλωσαν έως της ψυχής, η άβυσσος με περιέκλεισε, τα φύκια περιετυλίχθησαν περί την κεφαλήν μου.
·
6 Κατέβην εις τα έσχατα των ορέων· οι μοχλοί της γης είναι επάνωθέν μου διαπαντός· αλλ' ανέβη η ζωή μου από της φθοράς, Κύριε Θεέ μου·
·
7 Ενώ ήτο εκλείπουσα εν εμοί η ψυχή μου, ενεθυμήθην τον Κύριον· και η προσευχή μου εισήλθε προς σε, εις τον ναόν τον άγιόν σου.
·
8 Οι φυλάττοντες ματαιότητας ψεύδους εγκαταλείπουσι το έλεος αυτών.
·
9 Αλλ' εγώ θέλω θυσιάσει προς σε μετά φωνής αινέσεως· θέλω αποδώσει όσα ηυχήθην· η σωτηρία είναι παρά του Κυρίου.
·
10 Και προσέταξεν ο Κύριος το κήτος και εξήμεσε τον Ιωνάν επί την ξηράν.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
