A Psalm of Thanksgiving

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 As my life was ebbing away,
I remembered the Lord,
and my prayer came to you,
into your holy temple.(A)
8 Those who worship vain idols
forsake their true loyalty.(B)
9 But I with the voice of thanksgiving
will sacrifice to you;
what I have vowed I will pay.
Deliverance belongs to the Lord!”(C)
10 Then the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah out onto the dry land.
