'Sink' in the Bible
I sink in deep mire, where there is no foothold. I have come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
Deliver me out of the mire, and don't let me sink. Let me be delivered from those who hate me, and out of the deep waters.
and you shall say, Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise again because of the evil that I will bring on her; and they shall be weary. Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.
Won't the land tremble for this, and everyone mourn who dwells in it? Yes, it will rise up wholly like the River; and it will be stirred up and sink again, like the River of Egypt.
For the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, is he who touches the land and it melts, and all who dwell in it will mourn; and it will rise up wholly like the River, and will sink again, like the River of Egypt.
