3 “For You cast me into the deep, Into the [deep] heart of the seas, And the currents surrounded and engulfed me; All Your breakers and billowing waves passed over me. 4 “Then I said, ‘I have been cast out of Your sight. Nevertheless I will look again toward Your holy temple.’ 5 “The waters surrounded me, to the point of death. The great deep engulfed me, Seaweed was wrapped around my head. 6 “I descended to the [very] roots of the mountains. The earth with its bars closed behind me [bolting me in] forever, Yet You have brought up my life from the pit (death), O LORD my God. Jonah 2:3-6, Amplified Bible.
