rsv@Jonah:2:2 @ saying, "I called to the LORD, out of my distress, and he answered me; out of the belly of Sheol I cried, and thou didst hear my voice.

rsv@Jonah:2:4 @ Then I said, `I am cast out from thy presence; how shall I again look upon thy holy temple?'
rsv@Jonah:2:5 @ The waters closed in over me, the deep was round about me; weeds were wrapped about my head
rsv@Jonah:2:6 @ at the roots of the mountains. I went down to the land whose bars closed upon me for ever; yet thou didst bring up my life from the Pit, O LORD my God.
rsv@Jonah:2:7 @ When my soul fainted within me, I remembered the LORD; and my prayer came to thee, into thy holy temple.
