Jonah 2:4-6

New Catholic Bible

⁴ For you cast me into the deep,
    into the heart of the sea,
and the flood enveloped me;
    all your waves and your billows swept over me.
⁵ Then I thought, “I have been banished from your sight.
    Will I ever be allowed again
    to look upon your holy temple?”
⁶ The waters around me rose to my neck,
    and the deep was closing around me;
    seaweed was twined around my head.
