Jonah 2:7-9

The Voice

⁷     Only as my life was fading way
        did I remember the Eternal;
    To Your sacred dwelling, Your holy temple,
        my cries did rise to You.
⁸     Those who worship worthless idols
        turn their backs on God and renounce their loyal love.
⁹     But I will sing to You and sacrifice to You
        with a voice filled with thanksgiving;
    Whatever I promised, I will certainly pay it
        because deliverance is from the Eternal alone.
