Jonah 2:3
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For 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.
In context
1 From inside the fish, Jonah prayed to the LORD his God,
2 saying: “In my distress I called to the LORD, and He answered me. From the belly of Sheol I called for help, and You heard my voice.
3 For 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.
4 At this, I said, ‘I have been banished from Your sight; yet I will look once more toward Your holy temple.’
5 The waters engulfed me to take my life; the watery depths closed around me; the seaweed wrapped around my head.
