3. You threw me into the ocean depths,and I sank down to the heart of the sea.The mighty waters engulfed me;I was buried beneath your wild and stormy waves.
4. Then I said, ‘O lord, you have driven me from your presence.Yet I will look once more toward your holy Temple.’
5. “I sank beneath the waves,and the waters closed over me.Seaweed wrapped itself around my head.
6. I sank down to the very roots of the mountains.I was imprisoned in the earth,whose gates lock shut forever.But you, O lord my God,snatched me from the jaws of death!
