Jonah

2 1 THEN Jonah ^aprayed unto the LORD ^bhis God ^cout of the fish's belly,

2 And said, I ^dcried ¹by reason of mine affliction unto the LORD, and he ^eheard me; ^fout of the belly of ²hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice.

3 For thou ^ghadst cast me into the deep, in the ³midst of the seas; and the ^hfloods ^*compassed me about: all thy billows and thy waves passed over me.

4 Then I said, ⁱI am cast out of thy sight; yet I will ^jlook again toward thy holy temple.

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

6 I went down to the ⁴bottoms of the mountains; the earth with ^lher bars was about me for ever: ^myet hast thou brought up my life from ⁵corruption, O LORD my God.

7 When ⁿmy soul ^ofainted within me ^pI remembered the LORD: and ^qmy prayer came in unto thee, into thine ^rholy temple.

8 They that ^sobserve lying vanities forsake ^ttheir own mercy.

9 But ^uI will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. ^vSalvation is of the LORD.

10 ¶And the LORD ^wspake unto the fish, and ^xit vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.
