1. (2:2)Then Yonah davened unto Hashem Elohav from out of the dag's belly,
2. (2:3) And said, I cried by reason of mine tzoros unto Hashem, He heard me; out of the belly of Sheol cried I, and Thou heardest my voice.
3. (2:4) For Thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the yamim (seas); and the current swirled about me; all Thy billows and Thy waves passed over me.
4. (2:5) Then I said, I am cast out of Thy sight; yet I will look again toward Thy Heikhal Kodesh.
5. (2:6) The mayim compassed me about, even to the nefesh; the depth closed me round about, the seaweed were wrapped about my head.
