“Have you journeyed to the springs of the sea
    or walked in the recesses of the deep?
17 
Have the gates of death been shown to you?
    Have you seen the gates of the deepest darkness?
18 
Have you comprehended the vast expanses of the earth?
    Tell me, if you know all this."

--God, speaking to Job from the whirlwind.

“Profundo,” the Spanish word for “deep,” rolls off the tongue with such a… well, profound tone and feel–especially if you can roll that “r” a bit like native speakers do.

Both words, profundo and deep, send my mind immediately to the oceans of planet earth and the creatures that dwell in them. I am at once terrified at their raw power and in awe of their beauty, at once drawn inexorably to them and trepidatious in the face of them.

Likewise, I long to share with Job a tour of the universe in a God whirlwind, and firmly fear it would be the end of me. What human could survive such a thing? But, oh, the wonder of it.
