3 You threw me into the depths, into the heart of the seas, and the current overcame me.All Your breakers and Your billows swept over me.
4 But I said: I have been banished from Your sight, yet I will look once more toward Your holy temple.
5 The waters engulfed me up to the neck; the watery depths overcame me;seaweed was wrapped around my head.
6 I sank to the foundations of the mountains; the earth with its prison bars closed behind me forever! But You raised my life from the Pit, Lord my God!
7 As my life was fading away, I remembered Yahweh. My prayer came to You, to Your holy temple.
8 Those who cling to worthless idols forsake faithful love,
9 but as for me, I will sacrifice to Youwith a voice of thanksgiving. I will fulfill what I have vowed.Salvation is from the Lord!
