But Jonah3124 was gone down3381 into the sides3411 of the ship5600; and he lay7901, and was fast asleep7290. 1:6 So the shipmaster7227-2259 came7126 to him, and said0559 unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeper7290? arise6965, call7121 upon thy God0430, if so be that God0430 will think6245 upon us, that we perish0006 not. 1:7 And they said0559 every one0376 to his fellow7453, Come3212, and let us cast5307 lots1486, that we may know3045 for whose cause7945 this evil7451 {is} upon us. So they cast5307 lots1486, and the lot1486 fell5307 upon Jonah3124. 1:8 Then said0559 they unto him, Tell5046 us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evil7451 {is} upon us; What {is} thine occupation4399? and whence0370 comest0935 thou? what {is} thy country0776? and of what people5971 {art} thou? 1:9 And he said0559 unto them, I {am} an Hebrew5680; and I fear3373 the LORD3068, the God0430 of heaven8064, which hath made6213 the sea3220 and the dry3004 {land}. 1:10 Then were the men0582 exceedingly1419-3374 afraid3372, and said0559 unto him, Why hast thou done6213 this? For the men0582 knew3045 that he fled1272 from the presence6440 of the LORD3068, because he had told5046 them. 1:11 Then said0559 they unto him, What shall we do6213 unto thee, that the sea3220 may be calm8367 unto us? for the sea3220 wrought1980, and was tempestuous5590. 1:12 And he said0559 unto them, Take me up5375, and cast me forth2904 into the sea3220; so shall the sea3220 be calm8367 unto you: for I know3045 that for my sake7945 this great1419 tempest5591 {is} upon you. 1:13 Nevertheless the men0582 rowed hard2864 to bring7725 {it} to the land3004; but they could3201 not: for the sea3220 wrought1980, and was tempestuous5590 against them. 1:14 Wherefore they cried7121 unto the LORD3068, and said0559, We beseech thee0577, O LORD3068, we beseech thee, let us not perish0006 for this man's0376 life5315, and lay5414 not upon us innocent5355 blood1818: for thou, O LORD3068, hast done6213 as it pleased2654 thee. 1:15 So they took up5375 Jonah3124, and cast him forth2904 into the sea3220: and the sea3220 ceased5975 from her raging2197. 1:16 Then the men0582 feared3372 the LORD3068 exceedingly1419-3374, and offered2076 a sacrifice2077 unto the LORD3068, and made5087 vows5088.
