  • and he said,
    “I called out of my distress to the LORD,
    And He answered me.

    Into the heart of the seas,
    And the current engulfed me.

    The earth with its bars was around me forever,
    But You have brought up my life from the pit, O LORD my God.

    Forsake their faithfulness,

    With the voice of thanksgiving.
    That which I have vowed I will pay.
    Salvation is from the LORD.”
