Jonah 2:3-5
For You threw me into the deep, Into the heart of the seas, And the current flowed around me. All Your breakers and waves passed over me.So I said,‘ I have been cast out of Your sight. Nevertheless I will look again toward Your holy temple.’Water encompassed me to the point of death. The deep flowed around me, Seaweed was wrapped around my head.

Isaiah 38:10-13
I said,“ In the middle of my life I am to enter the gates of Sheol; I have been deprived of the rest of my years.”I said,“ I will not see the Lord, The Lord in the land of the living; I will no longer look on mankind among the inhabitants of the world.Like a shepherd’s tent my dwelling is pulled up and removed from me; As a weaver I rolled up my life. He cuts me off from the loom; From day until night You make an end of me.I composed my soul until morning. Like a lion— so He breaks all my bones, From day until night You make an end of me.

2 Corinthians 1 8-2 Corinthians 1 10
For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, of our affliction which occurred in Asia, that we were burdened excessively, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life.Indeed, we had the sentence of death within ourselves so that we would not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead,who rescued us from so great a danger of death, and will rescue us, He on whom we have set our hope. And He will yet deliver us,

Job 17:11-16
My days are past, my plans are torn apart, The wishes of my heart.They make night into day, saying,‘ The light is near,’ in the presence of darkness.If I hope for Sheol as my home, I make my bed in the darkness;If I call to the grave,‘ You are my father’; To the maggot,‘ my mother and my sister’;Where then is my hope? And who looks at my hope?Will it go down with me to Sheol? Shall we together go down into the dust?”
