Jonah 2:5-7

5The deep water of the sea covered me, so that my life was in danger. The plants in the sea were all around my head.

6I went very deep in the water, as far as the bottom of the mountains. Deep in the earth, I was in a prison, and its gates had shut for ever. But, Lord, my God, you brought me up from that deep hole.

7When my life was nearly gone, I prayed to you, Lord. In your holy temple, you heard my prayer for help.
