Jonah 2:4-10

Jonah 2:4-10 CSB

And I said, “I have been banished from your sight, yet I will look once more toward your holy temple.” The water engulfed me up to the neck; , the watery depths overcame me; seaweed was wrapped around my head. I sank to the foundations of the mountains, the earth’s gates shut behind me forever! Then you raised my life from the Pit, LORD my God! As my life was fading away, I remembered the LORD, and my prayer came to you, to your holy temple. Those who cherish worthless idols abandon their faithful love, but as for me, I will sacrifice to you with a voice of thanksgiving. I will fulfill what I have vowed. Salvation belongs to the LORD. Then the LORD commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.
