Jonah 2:2-4

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

“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.
³ For thou didst cast me into the deep,
    into the heart of the seas,
    and the flood was round about me;
all thy waves and thy billows
    passed over me.
⁴ Then I said, ‘I am cast out
    from thy presence;
how shall I again look
    upon thy holy temple?’
