Jonah 2:8 In-Context

6 I was going down to the bottoms of the mountains, to a land whose bars would close me in forever; but you brought me up alive from the pit, ADONAI, my God!
7 As my life was ebbing away, I remembered ADONAI; and my prayer came in to you, into your holy temple.
8 "Those who worship vain idols give up their source of mercy;
9 but I, speaking my thanks aloud, will sacrifice to you; what I have vowed, I will pay. Salvation comes from ADONAI!"
10 Then ADONAI spoke to the fish, and it vomited Yonah out onto dry land.
