The King James Version Bible

Jonah 2:1-5

  1. Then Jonah prayed unto the LORD his God out of the fish's belly,

  2. And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the LORD, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice.

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

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

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