Jonah 1:9-17

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}
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}
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}
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.
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}
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.
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}
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}
Now the LORD
<03068>
had prepared
<04487> (8762)
a great
<01419>
fish
<01709>
to swallow up
<01104> (8800)
Jonah
<03124>_.
And Jonah
<03124>
was in the belly
<04578>
of the fish
<01709>
three
<07969>
days
<03117>
and three
<07969>
nights
<03915>_.
{belly: Heb. bowels}
