Jonah 2:7-9

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁷ When my soul fainted upon me [crushing me], I earnestly and seriously remembered the Lord; and my prayer came to You, into Your holy temple.

⁸ Those who pay regard to false, useless, and worthless idols forsake their own [Source of] mercy and loving-kindness.

⁹ But as for me, I will sacrifice to You with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation and deliverance belong to the Lord!
