New Testament

Jonah 2:3-7 English Standard Version (ESV)

3. For you cast me into the deep,into the heart of the seas,and the flood surrounded me; all your waves and your billowspassed over me.

4. Then I said, ‘I am driven awayfrom your sight; yet I shall again lookupon your holy temple.’

5. The waters closed in over me to take my life;the deep surrounded me;weeds were wrapped about my head

6. at the roots of the mountains.I went down to the landwhose bars closed upon me forever;yet you brought up my life from the pit,O Lord my God.

7. When my life was fainting away,I remembered the Lord, and my prayer came to you,into your holy temple.
