Jonah 2:4-6

Common English Bible

⁴ So I said, ‘I have been driven away from your sight.
        Will I ever again look on your holy temple?
⁵ Waters have grasped me to the point of death;
        the deep surrounds me.
Seaweed is wrapped around my head
⁶         at the base of the undersea^[a] mountains.
I have sunk down to the underworld;
        its bars held me with no end in sight.
        But you brought me out of the pit.’
