3For You had cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods compassed me about: all Your billows and Your waves passed over me.

4Then I said, I am cast out of Your sight; yet I will look again toward Your holy temple.

5The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.

7When my soul fainted within me I remembered the Lord: and my prayer came in to You, into Your holy temple.

8They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.

9But I will sacrifice to You with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the Lord.

10And the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.
