Jonah 1:12-16

Geneva(i) 12 And he said vnto them, Take me, and cast me into the sea: so shall the sea be calme vnto you: for I knowe that for my sake this great tempest is vpon you. 13 Neuerthelesse, the men rowed to bring it to the lande, but they coulde not: for the sea wrought, and was troublous against them. 14 Wherefore they cryed vnto the Lord, and said, We beseech thee, O Lord, we beseech thee, let vs not perish for this mans life, and lay not vpon vs innocent blood: for thou, O Lord, hast done, as it pleased thee. 15 So they tooke vp Ionah, and cast him into the sea, and the sea ceased from her raging. 16 Then the men feared the Lord exceedingly, and offered a sacrifice vnto the Lord, and made vowes.
