 Jonah 2

   1  Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God out of the fish’s belly,

  2  And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the Lord, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice.

  3  For thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods compassed me about: all thy billows and thy waves passed over me.

  4  Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.

  5  The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.

  6  I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O Lord my God.

  7  When my soul fainted within me I remembered the Lord: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.

  8  They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.

  9  But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the Lord.

  10  And the Lord spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.
