Jonah 2:3-7

Jonah 2:3-7 AMP

“For You cast me into the deep, Into the [deep] heart of the seas, And the currents surrounded and engulfed me; All Your breakers and billowing waves passed over me. [Ps 42:7] “Then I said, ‘I have been cast out of Your sight. Nevertheless I will look again toward Your holy temple.’ [Ps 31:22] “The waters surrounded me, to the point of death. The great deep engulfed me, Seaweed was wrapped around my head. [Ps 69:1; Lam 3:54] “I descended to the [very] roots of the mountains. The earth with its bars closed behind me [bolting me in] forever, Yet You have brought up my life from the pit (death), O LORD my God. “When my soul was fainting within me, I remembered the LORD, And my prayer came to You, Into Your holy temple.
