    Jonah’s Prayer

    2:1 Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the belly of the fish, 2 saying,

      “I called out to the LORD, out of my distress,
        and he answered me;
      out of the belly of Sheol I cried,
        and you heard my voice.
    3   For you cast me into the deep,
        into the heart of the seas,
        and the flood surrounded me;
      all your breakers and your waves
        passed over me.
    4   Then I said, ‘I am driven away
        from your sight;
      yet I shall again look
        upon 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   To the roots of the mountains I went down,
        to the land whose 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.
    8   Those who pay regard to vain idols
        forsake their hope of steadfast love.
    9   But I with the voice of thanksgiving
        will sacrifice to you;
      what I have vowed I will pay.
        Salvation belongs to the LORD!”

    10 And the LORD spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah out upon the dry land.
