Jonah 2:4-10 (New Revised Standard)
View In My Bible
4
Then I said, "I am driven away from your sight; how a shall I look again upon your holy temple?'
5
The waters closed in over me; the deep surrounded me; weeds were wrapped around my head
6
at 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
As my life was ebbing away, I remembered the Lord; and my prayer came to you, into your holy temple.
8
Those who worship vain idols forsake their true loyalty.
9
But I with the voice of thanksgiving will sacrifice to you; what I have vowed I will pay. Deliverance belongs to the Lord!"
10
Then the Lord spoke to the fish, and it spewed Jonah out upon the dry land.
