1. But the Lord sent a great fish to swallow Jonah, and he remained in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
2. Jonah prayed to the Lord, his God, from the belly of the fish:
3. Out of my distress I called to the Lord,and he answered me;From the womb of Sheol I cried for help,and you heard my voice.
4. You cast me into the deep, into the heart of the sea,and the flood enveloped me;All your breakers and your billowspassed over me.
