Jonah 1:12-15

Thomson(i) 12 And Jonas said to them, Take me up and throw me into the sea, and the sea will be calm for you; for I know that on my account this great tempest is come upon you. 13 When the men had laboured hard to reach land, but could not because the sea ran high, and grew more tempestuous against them, 14 then they cried to the Lord and said, Forbid it, Lord, that we perish, for the life of this man, and bring not upon us innocent blood; for thou, Lord, hast done according to thy pleasure. 15 Then they took Jonas and cast him into the sea. Whereupon from raging the sea became still.
