[1]Now the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto JonahH3124 the sonH1121 of AmittaiH573, sayingH559,[H8800] [No book]
[2]AriseH6965[H8798], goH3212[H8798] to NinevehH5210, that greatH1419 cityH5892, and cryH7121[H8798] against it; for their wickednessH7451 is come upH5927[H8804] before meH6440. [No book]
[3]But JonahH3124 rose upH6965[H8799] to fleeH1272[H8800] unto TarshishH8659 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, and went downH3381[H8799] to JoppaH3305; and he foundH4672[H8799] a shipH591 goingH935[H8802] to TarshishH8659: so he paidH5414[H8799] the fareH7939 thereof, and went downH3381[H8799] into it, to goH935[H8800] with them unto TarshishH8659 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068. [No book]
[4]But the LORDH3068 sent outH2904[H8689] a greatH1419 windH7307 into the seaH3220, and there was a mightyH1419 tempestH5591 in the seaH3220, so that the shipH591 was likeH2803[H8765] to be brokenH7665.[H8736] [No book]
[5]Then the marinersH4419 were afraidH3372[H8799], and criedH2199[H8799] every manH376 unto his godH430, and cast forthH2904[H8686] the waresH3627 that were in the shipH591 into the seaH3220, to lightenH7043[H8687] it of them. But JonahH3124 was gone downH3381[H8804] into the sidesH3411 of the shipH5600; and he layH7901[H8799], and was fast asleepH7290.[H8735] [No book]
[6]So the shipmasterH7227[H2259] cameH7126[H8799] to him, and saidH559[H8799] unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeperH7290[H8737]? ariseH6965[H8798], callH7121[H8798] upon thy GodH430, if so be that GodH430 will thinkH6245[H8691] upon us, that we perishH6 notH8799. [No book]
[7]And they saidH559[H8799] every oneH376 to his fellowH7453, ComeH3212[H8798], and let us castH5307[H8686] lotsH1486, that we may knowH3045[H8799] for whose causeH7945 this evilH7451 is upon us. So they castH5307[H8686] lotsH1486, and the lotH1486 fellH5307[H8799] upon JonahH3124. [No book]
[8]Then saidH559[H8799] they unto him, TellH5046[H8685] us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evilH7451 is upon us; What is thine occupationH4399? and whenceH370 comestH935[H8799] thou? what is thy countryH776? and of what people art thouH5971? [No book]
[9]And he saidH559[H8799] unto them, I am an HebrewH5680; and I fearH3373 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of heavenH8064, which hath madeH6213[H8804] the seaH3220 and the dry landH3004. [No book]
[10]Then were the menH582 exceedinglyH1419[H3374] afraidH3372[H8799], and saidH559[H8799] unto him, Why hast thou doneH6213[H8804] this? For the menH582 knewH3045[H8804] that he fledH1272[H8802] from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, because he had toldH5046 themH8689. [No book]
[11]Then saidH559[H8799] they unto him, What shall we doH6213[H8799] unto thee, that the seaH3220 may be calmH8367[H8799] unto us? for the seaH3220 wroughtH1980[H8802], and was tempestuousH5590.[H8802] [No book]
[12]And he saidH559[H8799] unto them, Take me upH5375[H8798], and cast me forthH2904[H8685] into the seaH3220; so shall the seaH3220 be calmH8367[H8799] unto you: for I knowH3045[H8802] that for my sakeH7945 this greatH1419 tempest is upon youH5591. [No book]
[13]Nevertheless the menH582 rowed hardH2864[H8799] to bringH7725[H8687] it to the landH3004; but they couldH3201[H8804] not: for the seaH3220 wroughtH1980[H8802], and was tempestuousH5590 against themH8802. [No book]
[14]Wherefore they criedH7121[H8799] unto the LORDH3068, and saidH559[H8799], We beseech theeH577, O LORDH3068, we beseech thee, let us not perishH6[H8799] for this man'sH376 lifeH5315, and layH5414[H8799] not upon us innocentH5355[H8675][H5355] bloodH1818: for thou, O LORDH3068, hast doneH6213[H8804] as it pleasedH2654 theeH8804. [No book]
[15]So they took upH5375[H8799] JonahH3124, and cast him forthH2904[H8686] into the seaH3220: and the seaH3220 ceasedH5975[H8799] from her ragingH2197. [No book]
[16]Then the menH582 fearedH3372[H8799] the LORDH3068 exceedinglyH1419[H3374], and offeredH2076[H8799] a sacrificeH2077 unto the LORDH3068, and madeH5087[H8799] vowsH5088. [No book]
[17]Now the LORDH3068 had preparedH4487[H8762] a greatH1419 fishH1709 to swallow upH1104[H8800] JonahH3124. And JonahH3124 was in the bellyH4578 of the fishH1709 threeH7969 daysH3117 and threeH7969 nightsH3915. [No book]
