3For cthou hadst cast me into the deep, in the †midst of the seas;

dAll thy billows and thy waves passed over me.

4eThen I said, I am cast out of thy sight;

Yet fI will look again fgtoward thy holy temple.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

For you cast me into the deep,

into the heart of the seas,

and the flood surrounded me;

all your breakers and your waves

passed over me.

Then I said, ‘I am driven away

from your sight;

yet I shall again look

upon your holy temple.’

NIVNew International Version (2011)

You hurled me into the depths,

into the very heart of the seas,

and the currents swirled about me;

all your waves and breakers

swept over me.

I said, ‘I have been banished

from your sight;

yet I will look again

toward your holy temple.’

CSBChristian Standard Bible

When you threw me into the depths,

into the heart of the seas,

the current overcame me.

All your breakers and your billows swept over me.

And I said, “I have been banished

from your sight,

yet I will look once more

toward your holy temple.

NLTNew Living Translation

You threw me into the ocean depths,

and I sank down to the heart of the sea.

The mighty waters engulfed me;

I was buried beneath your wild and stormy waves.

Then I said, ‘O Lord, you have driven me from your presence.

Yet I will look once more toward your holy Temple.’

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

And you threw me into the deep,

into the heart of the seas,

and the sea currents surrounded me;

all your breakers and your surging waves

passed over me.

And I said, ‘I am banished

from your sight;

how will I continue to look

on your holy temple?’
