3For thou didst cast me into the deep,

into the heart of the seas,

and the flood was round about me;

all thy waves and thy billows

passed over me.

4Then I said, ‘I am cast out

from thy presence;

how shall I again look

upon thy holy temple?’

5The waters closed in over me,

the deep was round about me;

weeds were wrapped about my head

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.’

The waters closed in over me to take my life;

the deep surrounded me;

weeds were wrapped about my head.

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.’

The engulfing waters threatened me,

the deep surrounded me;

seaweed was wrapped around my head.

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.

The water engulfed me up to the neck;

the watery depths overcame me;

seaweed was wrapped around my head.

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.’

“I sank beneath the waves,

and the waters closed over me.

Seaweed wrapped itself around my head.

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?’

The waters encompassed me up to my neck;

the deep surrounded me;

seaweed was wrapped around my head.

KJV 1900King James Version

For thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas;

And the floods compassed me about:

All thy billows and thy waves passed over me.

Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight;

Yet I will look again toward thy holy temple.

The waters compassed me about, even to the soul:

The depth closed me round about,

The weeds were wrapped about my head.
