A Great Fish Swallows Jonah

17 [a] And the Lord appointed[b] a great fish to swallow up Jonah. (A)And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.

Jonah's Prayer

Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the belly of the fish, saying,

(B)“I called out to the Lord, out of my distress,
    and he answered me;
(C)out of the belly of Sheol I cried,
    (D)and you heard my voice.
