Jonah 2:5-10 The waters compassed me about, even to the soul; the deep was round about me; the weeds were wrapped about my head.

ERV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ The waters compassed me about, even to the soul; the deep was round about me; the weeds were wrapped about my head. ⁶ I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars [closed] upon me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from the pit, 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 regard lying vanities forsake their own mercy. ⁹ But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that which 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.
