H1697
Now the word
H3068
of Jehovah
H3124
came unto Jonah
H1121
the son
H573
of Amittai,
H559
saying,
2
H6965
Arise,
H3212
go
H5210
to Nineveh,
H1419
that great
H5892
city,
H7121
and cry
H7451
against it; for their wickedness
H5927
is come up
H6440
before me.
3
H3124
But Jonah
H6965
rose up
H1272
to flee
H8659
unto Tarshish
H6440
from the presence
H3068
of Jehovah;
H3381
and he went down
H3305
to Joppa,
H4672
and found
H591
a ship
H935
going
H8659
to Tarshish:
H5414
so he paid
H7939
the fare
H3381
thereof, and went down
H935
into it, to go
H8659
with them unto Tarshish
H6440
from the presence
H3068
of Jehovah.
4
H3068
But Jehovah
H2904
sent out
H1419
a great
H7307
wind
H3220
upon the sea,
H1419
and there was a mighty
H5591
tempest
H3220
on the sea,
H591
so that the ship
H2803
was like
H7665
to be broken.
5
H4419
Then the mariners
H3372
were afraid,
H2199
and cried
H376
every man
H430
unto his god;
H2904
and they cast forth
H3627
the wares
H591
that were in the ship
H3220
into the sea,
H7043
to lighten
H3124
it unto them. But Jonah
H3381
was gone down
H3411
into the innermost parts
H5600
of the ship;
H7901
and he lay,
H7290
and was fast asleep.
6
H7227
So the shipmaster
H7126
came
H559
to him, and said
H7290
unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeper?
H6965
arise,
H7121
call
H430
upon thy God,
H430
if so be that God
H6245
will think
H6
upon us, that we perish not.
7
H559
And they said
H376
every one
H7453
to his fellow,
H3212
Come,
H5307
and let us cast
H1486
lots,
H3045
that we may know
H7945
for whose cause
H7451
this evil
H5307
is upon us. So they cast
H1486
lots,
H1486
and the lot
H5307
fell
H3124
upon Jonah.
8
H559
Then said
H5046
they unto him, Tell
H7451
us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evil
H4399
is upon us; what is thine occupation?
H370
and whence
H935
comest
H776
thou? what is thy country?
H5971
and of what people art thou?
9
H559
And he said
H5680
unto them, I am a Hebrew;
H3373
and I fear
H3068
Jehovah,
H430
the God
H8064
of heaven,
H6213
who hath made
H3220
the sea
H3004
and the dry land.
10
H582
Then were the men
H1419
exceedingly
H3372
afraid,
H559
and said
H6213
unto him, What is this that thou hast done?
H582
For the men
H3045
knew
H1272
that he was fleeing
H6440
from the presence
H3068
of Jehovah,
H5046
because he had told them.
11
H559
Then said
H6213
they unto him, What shall we do
H3220
unto thee, that the sea
H8367
may be calm
H3220
unto us? for the sea
H1980
grew
H5590
more and more tempestuous.
12
H559
And he said
H5375
unto them, Take me up,
H2904
and cast me forth
H3220
into the sea;
H3220
so shall the sea
H8367
be calm
H3045
unto you: for I know
H7945
that for my sake
H1419
this great
H5591
tempest is upon you.
13
H582
Nevertheless the men
H2864
rowed hard
H7725
to get
H3004
them back to the land;
H3201
but they could
H3220
not: for the sea
H1980
grew
H5590
more and more tempestuous against them.
14
H7121
Wherefore they cried
H3068
unto Jehovah,
H559
and said,
H577
We beseech thee,
H3068
O Jehovah,
H6
we beseech thee, let us not perish
H376
for this man's
H5315
life,
H5414
and lay
H5355
not upon us innocent
H1818
blood;
H3068
for thou, O Jehovah,
H6213
hast done
H2654
as it pleased thee.
15
H5375
So they took up
H3124
Jonah,
H2904
and cast him forth
H3220
into the sea;
H3220
and the sea
H5975
ceased
H2197
from its raging.
