Jonah 1:12-16

1:12

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Take me up
<05375> (8798)_,

and cast me forth
<02904> (8685)

into the sea
<03220>_;

so shall the sea
<03220>

be calm
<08367> (8799)

unto you: for I know
<03045> (8802)

that for my sake
<07945>

this great
<01419>

tempest
<05591>

[is] upon you.

1:13

Nevertheless the men
<0582>

rowed hard
<02864> (8799)

to bring
<07725> (8687)

[it] to the land
<03004>_;

but they could
<03201> (8804)

not: for the sea
<03220>

wrought
<01980> (8802)_,

and was tempestuous
<05590> (8802)

against them. {rowed: Heb. digged} {wrought...: or, grew more and more tempestuous: Heb. went}

1:14

Wherefore they cried
<07121> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

We beseech thee
<0577>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

we beseech thee, let us not perish
<06> (8799)

for this man's
<0376>

life
<05315>_,

and lay
<05414> (8799)

not upon us innocent
<05355> (8675) <05355>

blood
<01818>_:

for thou, O LORD
<03068>_,

hast done
<06213> (8804)

as it pleased
<02654> (8804)

thee.

1:15

So they took up
<05375> (8799)

Jonah
<03124>_,

and cast him forth
<02904> (8686)

into the sea
<03220>_:

and the sea
<03220>

ceased
<05975> (8799)

from her raging
<02197>_.

{ceased: Heb. stood}

1:16

Then the men
<0582>

feared
<03372> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

exceedingly
<01419> <03374>_,

and offered
<02076> (8799)

a sacrifice
<02077>

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and made
<05087> (8799)

vows
<05088>_.

{offered...: Heb. sacrifice unto the LORD, and vowed vows}
