Jonah 2:7

Jonah Is Swallowed By A Fish And Prays To Yahweh

⁶
“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.
⁷ 
“When my soul was fainting within me,
I remembered the Lord,
And my prayer came to You,
Into Your holy temple.
⁸
“Those who regard and follow worthless idols
Turn away from their [living source of] mercy and lovingkindness.
