1 Then Jonah prayed to the LORD, his God, out of the fish’s belly.
2 He said,
3 For you threw me into the depths,
4 I said, ‘I have been banished from your sight;
5 The waters surrounded me,
6 I went down to the bottoms of the mountains.
7 “When my soul fainted within me, I remembered the LORD.
8 Those who regard vain idols forsake their own mercy.
9 But I will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving.
10 Then the LORD spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah on the dry land.
