Jonah 2:4
Berean Standard Bible
At this, I said, ‘I have been banished from Your sight; yet I will look once more toward Your holy temple.’
Context
2saying:
“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. 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. 6To the roots of the mountains I descended;
the earth beneath me barred me in forever!
But You raised my life from the pit,
O LORD my God!
