In this verse, Jonah, who has been swallowed by a great fish or whale after trying to escape God's command, prays while inside the belly of the sea creature. The verse reads:

"In my distress, I called to the LORD, and he answered me. From deep in the realm of the dead I called for help, and you listened to my cry."

It illustrates the idea that, even in times of trouble, turning to God in prayer can bring comfort and hope, as Jonah believes that God hears and responds to his plea for help despite his disobedience.
