Jonah 2:3-5 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

³For You cast me into the deep,

into the heart of the seas,

and the current swirled about me;

all Your breakers and waves swept over me.

⁴At this, I said,

‘I have been banished from Your sight;

yet I will look once more

toward Your holy temple.’

⁵The waters engulfed me

to take my life;

the watery depths closed around me;

the seaweed wrapped around my head.

— Jonah 2:3-5
