Jonah 2:6

O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.

Hear me speedily, O LORD: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.

The mountains saw thee, and they trembled: the overflowing of the water passed by: the deep uttered his voice, and lifted up his hands on high.

But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee.

Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.

Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with power:

They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them.

For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.

Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.

What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?

He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.

He stood, and measured the earth: he beheld, and drove asunder the nations; and the everlasting mountains were scattered, the perpetual hills did bow: his ways are everlasting.

Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance?
