This is Jonah’s prayer to YAHWEH, his God, from out of the darkness inside the huge fish: “I called out to YAHWEH from a place of total desperation and he answered me. From inside the belly of Sheol I cried out, and you heard my voice. The waters closed in all around me; all your mighty waves and currents crashed over me. For you cast me into the deep, and I sank down to the bottom of the sea. I actually assumed that you had banished me from your sight. Yet, I know that I will one day gaze again upon your holy temple. The waters rose to choke me to death. The sea was closing in around me— seaweed tightened around my head. I sank down into the abyss, to the roots of the mountains, where the barred gates of that realm would lock me in forever. But you, YAHWEH, are my God; you raised my life from the pit.
