4For you have put me down into the deep, into the heart of the sea; and the river was round about me; all your waves and your rolling waters went over me.
5And I said, I have been sent away from before your eyes; how may I ever again see your holy Temple?
6The waters were circling round me, even to the neck; the deep was about me; the sea-grass was twisted round my head.
7I went down to the bases of the mountains; as for the earth, her walls were about me for ever: but you have taken up my life from the underworld, O Lord my God.
8When my soul in me was overcome, I kept the memory of the Lord: and my prayer came in to you, into your holy Temple.
9The worshippers of false gods have given up their only hope.
10But I will make an offering to you with the voice of praise; I will give effect to my oaths. Salvation is the Lord's.
