Genesis 48:16

הַ מַּלְאָךְ הַ גֹּאֵל אֹתִי מִ כָּל רָע יְבָרֵךְ אֶת הַ נְּעָרִים וְ יִקָּרֵא בָהֶם שְׁמִי וְ שֵׁם אֲבֹתַי אַבְרָהָם וְ יִצְחָק וְ יִדְגּוּ לָ רֹב בְּ קֶרֶב הָ אָרֶץ
The Messenger is the One-who-redeems [acts as kinsman-redeemer] אֶת-me from the whole of the ruinous-one, he is kneeling אֶת-the Scattered-ones, and my name is being called-out in them, and the name of my fathers, Father-of-Tumult and He-Laughs; and they are spawning [as fish]1343 to the Abundance in the inner part1344 of the Earth.`
1344

Not “middle” of earth. See note on Gen 18:24, also the inner part of Sarah Gen. 18:12, the struggle of the children in the inner part of Rebekkah.
