In context
1From inside the fish, Jonah prayed to the LORD his God, 2saying: 3For You cast me into the deep, 4At this, I said, 5The waters engulfed me 6To the roots of the mountains I descended; 7As my life was fading away, 8Those who cling to worthless idols 9But I, with the voice of thanksgiving, 10And the LORD commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.
