2 <V 2:3>And he said: “I cried out to the Lord from my tribulation, and he heeded me. From the belly of hell, I cried out, and you heeded my voice. 3 <V 2:4>And you have thrown me into the deep, in the heart of the sea, and a flood has encircled me. All your whirlpools and your waves have passed over me. 4 <V 2:5>And I said: I am expelled from the sight of your eyes. Yet, truly, I will see your holy temple again. 5 <V 2:6>The waters surrounded me, even to the soul. The abyss has walled me in. The ocean has covered my head. 6 <V 2:7>I descended to the base of the mountains. The bars of the earth have enclosed me forever. And you will raise up my life from corruption, Lord, my God.
