Jona 2,3

Discouragement and depressionSuffering

1 Jona ba til Herren sin Gud fra fiskens buk,

2 og sa:
"I min nød ropte jeg til Herren,
og Han svarte meg. Fra dypet av Sheol
ropte jeg om hjelp,
og Du hørte min stemme.

Du kastet meg i dypet,
midt i havet,
og strømmen omringet meg;
alle Dine bølger og brenninger slo over meg.

4 Jeg tenkte: ‘Jeg er drevet bort fra Ditt åsyn;
likevel vil jeg igjen se mot Ditt hellige tempel.’

5 Vannet omsluttet meg til døden,
dypet omringet meg;
tang var viklet rundt hodet mitt.
