Jonah 2:5

← Jonah 2:4	Jonah 2:5 (KJV)	Jonah 2:6 →
Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.	The waters compassed me about, [even] to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.	I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars [was] about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O LORD my God.
