Jonah 2:3-5

EasyEnglish Bible

³     You threw me into the deep water,
        and I fell into the middle of the sea.
    The deep water covered me.
        You sent big waves to roll over me.
⁴     I said to myself,
        “You have sent me far away from you.
        Now I will never see your holy temple again.”^[a]
5     The deep water of the sea covered me,
        so that my life was in danger.
    The plants in the sea were all around my head.
