Jonah 1:6-12

1:6

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.

1:7

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>_.

1:8

Then said
<0559> (8799)

they unto him, Tell
<05046> (8685)

us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evil
<07451>

[is] upon us; What [is] thine occupation
<04399>_?

and whence
<0370>

comest
<0935> (8799)

thou? what [is] thy country
<0776>_?

and of what people
<05971>

[art] thou?

1:9

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, I [am] an Hebrew
<05680>_;

and I fear
<03373>

the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

of heaven
<08064>_,

which hath made
<06213> (8804)

the sea
<03220>

and the dry
<03004>

[land]. {the LORD: or, JEHOVAH}

1:10

Then were the men
<0582>

exceedingly
<01419> <03374>

afraid
<03372> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Why hast thou done
<06213> (8804)

this? For the men
<0582>

knew
<03045> (8804)

that he fled
<01272> (8802)

from the presence
<06440>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

because he had told
<05046> (8689)

them. {exceedingly...: Heb. with great fear}

1:11

Then said
<0559> (8799)

they unto him, What shall we do
<06213> (8799)

unto thee, that the sea
<03220>

may be calm
<08367> (8799)

unto us? for the sea
<03220>

wrought
<01980> (8802)_,

and was tempestuous
<05590> (8802)_.

{may...: Heb. may be silent from us} {wrought...: or, grew more and more tempestuous: Heb. went}

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.
