Jonah 2:4-6

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁴ Then I said, “I am driven away
    from your sight;
how^[a] shall I look again
    upon your holy temple?”
⁵ The waters closed in over me;
    the deep surrounded me;
weeds were wrapped around my head
⁶     at the roots of the mountains.
I went down to the land
    whose bars closed upon me for ever;
yet you brought up my life from the Pit,
    O Lord my God.
