1 From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the LORD his God.

2 Jonah prayed: |I called to the LORD in my distress, and he answered me. From the depths of my [watery] grave I cried for help, and you heard my cry.

3 You threw me into the deep, into the depths of the sea, and water surrounded me. All the whitecaps on your waves have swept over me.

4 |Then I thought, 'I have been banished from your sight. Will I ever see your holy temple again?'
