Jonah 2:3-5
Good News Translation
3 You threw me down into the depths,
to the very bottom of the sea,
where the waters were all around me,
and all your mighty waves rolled over me.
4 I thought I had been banished from your presence
and would never see your holy Temple again.
5 The water came over me and choked me;
the sea covered me completely,
and seaweed wrapped around my head.
Jonah 2:3-5
New International Version
3 You hurled me into the depths,(A)
into the very heart of the seas,
and the currents swirled about me;
all your waves(B) and breakers
swept over me.(C)
4 I said, ‘I have been banished
from your sight;(D)
yet I will look again
toward your holy temple.’(E)
5 The engulfing waters threatened me,[a]
the deep surrounded me;
seaweed was wrapped around my head.(F)
