Jonah 1:1-7

Now the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto Jonah
<03124>
the son
<01121>
of Amittai
<0573>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
{Jonah: Gr. Jonas}
Arise
<06965> (8798)_,
go
<03212> (8798)
to Nineveh
<05210>_,
that great
<01419>
city
<05892>_,
and cry
<07121> (8798)
against it; for their wickedness
<07451>
is come up
<05927> (8804)
before
<06440>
me.
But Jonah
<03124>
rose up
<06965> (8799)
to flee
<01272> (8800)
unto Tarshish
<08659>
from the presence
<06440>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and went down
<03381> (8799)
to Joppa
<03305>_;
and he found
<04672> (8799)
a ship
<0591>
going
<0935> (8802)
to Tarshish
<08659>_:
so he paid
<05414> (8799)
the fare
<07939>
thereof, and went down
<03381> (8799)
into it, to go
<0935> (8800)
with them unto Tarshish
<08659>
from the presence
<06440>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
But the LORD
<03068>
sent out
<02904> (8689)
a great
<01419>
wind
<07307>
into the sea
<03220>_,
and there was a mighty
<01419>
tempest
<05591>
in the sea
<03220>_,
so that the ship
<0591>
was like
<02803> (8765)
to be broken
<07665> (8736)_.
{sent out: Heb. cast forth} {was like...: Heb. thought to be broken}
Then the mariners
<04419>
were afraid
<03372> (8799)_,
and cried
<02199> (8799)
every man
<0376>
unto his god
<0430>_,
and cast forth
<02904> (8686)
the wares
<03627>
that [were] in the ship
<0591>
into the sea
<03220>_,
to lighten
<07043> (8687)
[it] of them. But Jonah
<03124>
was gone down
<03381> (8804)
into the sides
<03411>
of the ship
<05600>_;
and he lay
<07901> (8799)_,
and was fast asleep
<07290> (8735)_.
So the shipmaster
<07227> <02259>
came
<07126> (8799)
to him, and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeper
<07290> (8737)_?
arise
<06965> (8798)_,
call
<07121> (8798)
upon thy God
<0430>_,
if so be that God
<0430>
will think
<06245> (8691)
upon us, that we perish
<06> (8799)
not.
And they said
<0559> (8799)
every one
<0376>
to his fellow
<07453>_,
Come
<03212> (8798)_,
and let us cast
<05307> (8686)
lots
<01486>_,
that we may know
<03045> (8799)
for whose cause
<07945>
this evil
<07451>
[is] upon us. So they cast
<05307> (8686)
lots
<01486>_,
and the lot
<01486>
fell
<05307> (8799)
upon Jonah
<03124>_.
