Jonah 2:6-8
New Living Translation
6 I 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!
7 As my life was slipping away,
I remembered the Lord.
And my earnest prayer went out to you
in your holy Temple.
8 Those who worship false gods
turn their backs on all God’s mercies.
Jonah 2:6-8
New International Version
6 To the roots of the mountains(A) I sank down;
the earth beneath barred me in forever.
But you, Lord my God,
brought my life up from the pit.(B)
7 “When my life was ebbing away,
I remembered(C) you, Lord,
and my prayer(D) rose to you,
to your holy temple.(E)
8 “Those who cling to worthless idols(F)
turn away from God’s love for them.
