5 Waters have surrounded me to the soul, || The deep surrounds me, || The weed is bound to my head. 6 To the cuttings of mountains I have come down, || The earth, her bars [are] behind me for all time. And You bring my life up from the pit, O YHWH my God. 7 In the feebleness of my soul within me, || I have remembered YHWH, || And my prayer comes to You, || Into Your holy temple. 8 Those observing lying vanities forsake their own mercy. 9 And I—with a voice of thanksgiving—I sacrifice to You, || That which I have vowed I complete, || Salvation [is] of YHWH.” 10 And YHWH speaks to the fish, and it vomits Jonah out on the dry land.
