Jonah 2:5

For in the day of trouble, he will keep me secretly in his pavilion. In the secret place of his tabernacle, he will hide me. He will lift me up on a rock.

A man’s steps are established by Yahweh. He delights in his way.

I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold. I have come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

Waters flowed over my head. I said, “I am cut off.”

or darkness, so that you can not see, and floods of waters cover you.

My foot stands in an even place. In the congregations I will bless Yahweh.

Though he stumble, he shall not fall, for Yahweh holds him up with his hand.

For you threw me into the depths, in the heart of the seas. The flood was all around me. All your waves and your billows passed over me.

He sent from on high and he took me. He drew me out of many waters.

He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay. He set my feet on a rock, and gave me a firm place to stand.

and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.”

Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous; their minds and hearts are searched by the righteous God.

My steps have held fast to your paths. My feet have not slipped.

He brought me out also into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.

You have enlarged my steps under me, My feet have not slipped.

From the end of the earth, I will call to you when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

You, who have shown us many and bitter troubles, you will let me live. You will bring us up again from the depths of the earth.

For your loving kindness is great toward me. You have delivered my soul from the lowest Sheol.

The cords of death surrounded me, the pains of Sheol got a hold of me. I found trouble and sorrow.

Establish my footsteps in your word. Don’t let any iniquity have dominion over me.

For the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground. He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead.

They will be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and will be shut up in the prison; and after many days they will be visited.

Then they took Jeremiah and threw him into the dungeon of Malchijah the king’s son, that was in the court of the guard. They let down Jeremiah with cords. In the dungeon there was no water, but mire; and Jeremiah sank in the mire.

Then he said to me, “Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, ‘Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost. We are completely cut off.’

As for you also, because of the blood of your covenant, I have set free your prisoners from the pit in which is no water.

whom God raised up, having freed him from the agony of death, because it was not possible that he should be held by it.

and they took him, and threw him into the pit. The pit was empty. There was no water in it.

then God is gracious to him, and says, ‘Deliver him from going down to the pit, I have found a ransom.’

The cords of death surrounded me. The floods of ungodliness made me afraid.

You, Yahweh, when you favored me, made my mountain stand strong; but when you hid your face, I was troubled.

As for me, I said in my haste, “I am cut off from before your eyes.” Nevertheless you heard the voice of my petitions when I cried to you.

Save me, God, for the waters have come up to my neck!

Don’t let the flood waters overwhelm me, neither let the deep swallow me up. Don’t let the pit shut its mouth on me.

You have laid me in the lowest pit, in the darkest depths.

Out of the depths I have cried to you, Yahweh.

Make the path of your feet level. Let all of your ways be established.

Behold, for peace I had great anguish, but you have in love for my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption; for you have cast all my sins behind your back.

I said, “My strength has perished, along with my expectation from Yahweh.”
