Jonah 2:4-6
International Standard Version

4 So I told myself,[a] ‘I have been driven away from you.[b]
    How[c] will I again gaze on your holy Temple?’
5 Flood waters encompassed me,
    the deep surrounded me
        while seaweed wrapped around my head.
6 I sank to the roots of the mountains;
    the earth’s prison[d] bars closed[e] around me forever.
        Yet you resurrect the dead[f] from the Pit,[g] Lord my God!
