1 From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord his God.
2 Jonah prayed:
3 You threw me into the deep, into the depths of the sea,
4 “Then I thought,
5 “Water surrounded me, threatening my life.
6 I sank to the foot of the mountains.
7 “As my life was slipping away, I remembered the Lord.
8 Those who hold on to worthless idols abandon their loyalty ⌞to you⌟.
9 But I will sacrifice to you with songs of thanksgiving.
10 Then the Lord spoke to the fish, and it spit Jonah out onto the shore.
