If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the earth was like a prison that was about to lock me in forever”
2:6 c8v0 rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy חַיַּ֖⁠י 1 Here, **life** represents Jonah himself. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “me, alive”

2:6 dc3r rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor וַ⁠תַּ֧עַל מִ⁠שַּׁ֛חַת חַיַּ֖⁠י 1 Here, the term **pit** has a double meaning. Jonah is in a deep place that could be called a pit, and this is also a word that is used in poetry for the place of the dead. Jonah is expressing that he felt certain that he would die in this place. Alternate translation: “but you saved my life from the place of the dead”
2:6 i3mx rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-infostructure יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהָֽ⁠י 1 If it would be more natural in your language, you could put this phrase at the beginning of the sentence after **but** or **you**.
2:6 geyd rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-possession אֱלֹהָֽ⁠י 1 Here, Jonah is using the possessive form **my** to describe **God**. If your language would not use the possessive form for this, you could use a more natural expression. Alternate translation: “the God to whom I belong”

Alternate translation: “when my spirit inside me had fainted”

This means that God heard his prayer and responded to it. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “then you in your holy temple heard my prayer”

In your translation, present this information in a way that makes it clear that this is background information, such as introducing it with a word such as **Now**.
3:3 jd8r rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom עִיר־גְּדוֹלָה֙ לֵֽ⁠אלֹהִ֔ים 1 Here, because of the phrase **a journey of three days**, the focus of **great** seems to be the size of the city. The phrase **great to God** is an idiom that means “extremely large.” If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use an idiom from your language that does have this meaning or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “an enormous city”
3:3 ye82 מַהֲלַ֖ךְ שְׁלֹ֥שֶׁת יָמִֽים 1 This could mean: (1) that a person had to walk for three days to completely go through the city from one side of the city to the opposite side. Alternate translation: “a city so large that it would take a person three days to walk through it” (2) that it took three days to see the whole city. Alternate translation: “a city so large that it would take a person three days to see it all”

Alternate translation: “So Jonah walked into the city for one day, and then he called out” (2) while Jonah was walking through the city on the first day, he started calling out. Alternate translation: “So Jonah began walking into the city for one day, and as he went he called out”

3:4 r94k rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-explicitinfo וַ⁠יִּקְרָא֙ וַ⁠יֹּאמַ֔ר 1 The expression **called out and said** contains extra information that would be unnatural to express in some languages. If this is true of your language, you could shorten the expression. Alternate translation: “and he proclaimed” or “and he shouted”
3:4 ab78 ע֚וֹד אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם 1 Alternate translation: “After 40 days” or “When 40 days have passed”
3:4 q2nc rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-numbers אַרְבָּעִ֣ים י֔וֹם 1 Alternate translation: “40 days”
3:4 lywb rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive וְ⁠נִֽינְוֵ֖ה נֶהְפָּֽכֶת 1 If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who will do the action, it is clear from the context that it will be God. Alternate translation: “then God will overthrow Nineveh”
3:5 h9dr rc://*/ta/man/translate/figs-gendernotations אַנְשֵׁ֥י נִֽינְוֵ֖ה 1 Although the term **men** is masculine, here it has a generic sense that includes both men and women. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a phrase that makes this clear. Alternate translation: “the men and women of Nineveh”
3:5 ab90 rc://*/ta/man/translate/translate-symaction וַ⁠יִּקְרְאוּ־צוֹם֙ וַ⁠יִּלְבְּשׁ֣וּ שַׂקִּ֔ים 1 Both fasting and wearing coarse cloth were symbolic actions that showed sadness or devotion to God or both. If this would not be clear to your readers, you could explain the significance of these actions in the text or in a footnote. Alternate translation: “they proclaimed a fast and put on sackcloth to show that they were sorry for having sinned”
