1 Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the fish’s belly.
2 And he said:
“I acried out to the Lord because of my affliction,
bAnd He answered me.
“Out of the belly of Sheol I cried,
And You heard my voice.
“I acried out to the Lord because of my affliction,
bAnd He answered me.
“Out of the belly of Sheol I cried,
And You heard my voice.
3 aFor You cast me into the deep,
Into the heart of the seas,
And the floods surrounded me;
bAll Your billows and Your waves passed over me.
Into the heart of the seas,
And the floods surrounded me;
bAll Your billows and Your waves passed over me.
4 aThen I said, ‘I have been cast out of Your sight;
Yet I will look again btoward Your holy temple.’
Yet I will look again btoward Your holy temple.’
