Jonah 2 : 1 (HCSB)

Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from inside the fish:

Jonah 2 : 2 (HCSB)

I called to the LORD in my distress, and He answered me. I cried out for help in the belly of Sheol; You heard my voice.

Jonah 2 : 3 (HCSB)

You threw me into the depths, into the heart of the seas, and the current overcame me. All Your breakers and Your billows swept over me.

Jonah 2 : 4 (HCSB)

But I said: I have been banished from Your sight, yet I will look once more toward Your holy temple.

Jonah 2 : 5 (HCSB)

The waters engulfed me up to the neck; the watery depths overcame me; seaweed was wrapped around my head.

Jonah 2 : 6 (HCSB)

I sank to the foundations of the mountains; the earth with its prison bars closed behind me forever! But You raised my life from the Pit, LORD my God!

Jonah 2 : 7 (HCSB)

As my life was fading away, I remembered the LORD. My prayer came to You, to Your holy temple.

Jonah 2 : 8 (HCSB)

Those who cling to worthless idols forsake faithful love,

Jonah 2 : 9 (HCSB)

but as for me, I will sacrifice to You with a voice of thanksgiving. I will fulfill what I have vowed. Salvation is from the LORD!

Jonah 2 : 10 (HCSB)

Then the LORD commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.
