Jonah 2:4-7
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 2
4So I said, ‘I have been cast out of Your sight. Nevertheless I will look again toward Your holy temple.’ 5Water encompassed me to the point of death. The deep flowed around me, Seaweed was wrapped around my head. 6I descended to the base of the mountains. The earth with its bars was around me forever, But You have brought up my life from the pit, Lord my God. 7While I was fainting away, I remembered the Lord, And my prayer came to You, Into Your holy temple.King James Version
Chapter 2
4Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple. 5The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head. 6I 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. 7When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 2
4And I said, "I have been banished from your sight, yet I will look once more toward your holy temple." 5The water engulfed me up to the neck; the watery depths overcame me; seaweed was wrapped around my head. 6I sank to the foundations of the mountains, the earth's gates shut behind me forever! Then you raised my life from the Pit, Lord my God! 7As my life was fading away, I remembered the Lord, and my prayer came to you, to your holy temple.New Living Translation
5'I sank beneath the waves, and the waters closed over me. Seaweed wrapped itself around my head.
6I sank down to the very roots of the mountains. I was imprisoned in the earth, whose gates lock shut forever. But you, O Lord my God, snatched me from the jaws of death!
7As my life was slipping away, I remembered the Lord. And my earnest prayer went out to you in your holy Temple.
English Standard Version
Chapter 2
4Then I said, ‘I am driven away from your sight; yet I shall again look upon your holy temple.’ 5The waters closed in over me to take my life; the deep surrounded me; weeds were wrapped about my head 6at the roots of the mountains. I went down to the land whose bars closed upon me forever; yet you brought up my life from the pit, O LORD my God. 7When my life was fainting away, I remembered the LORD, and my prayer came to you, into your holy temple.New International Version
