2 and he said, “I called out of my distress to the LORD, And He answered me. I called for help from the depth of Sheol; You heard my voice. 3 “For You threw me into the deep, Into the heart of the seas, And the current flowed around me. All Your breakers and waves passed over me. 4 “So I said, ‘I have been cast out of Your sight. Nevertheless I will look again toward Your holy temple.’ 5 “Water encompassed me to the point of death. The deep flowed around me, Seaweed was wrapped around my head. 6 “I descended to the base of the mountains. The earth with its bars was around me forever, But You have brought up my life from the pit, LORD my God. Jonah 2:2-6, New American Standard Bible. Copyright © 2020 by The Lockman Foundation.
