Jonah 2:6-8
International Standard Version

6 I sank to the roots of the mountains;
    the earth’s prison[a] bars closed[b] around me forever.
        Yet you resurrect the dead[c] from the Pit,[d] Lord my God!

7 “As my life was fading away,
    I remembered the Lord;
        and my prayer came to you in your holy Temple.
8 Those who cling to vain idols
    leave behind the gracious love that could have been theirs.[e]
