1Now the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came unto Jonah H3124 the son H1121 of Amittai H573, saying H559 (H8800),

2Arise H6965 (H8798), go H3212 (H8798) to Nineveh H5210, that great H1419 city H5892, and cry H7121 (H8798) against it; for their wickedness H7451 is come up H5927 (H8804) before H6440 me.

3But Jonah H3124 rose up H6965 (H8799) to flee H1272 (H8800) unto Tarshish H8659 from the presence H6440 of the LORD H3068, and went down H3381 (H8799) to Joppa H3305; and he found H4672 (H8799) a ship H591 going H935 (H8802) to Tarshish H8659: so he paid H5414 (H8799) the fare H7939 thereof, and went down H3381 (H8799) into it, to go H935 (H8800) with them unto Tarshish H8659 from the presence H6440 of the LORD H3068.

4But the LORD H3068 sent out H2904 (H8689) a great H1419 wind H7307 into the sea H3220, and there was a mighty H1419 tempest H5591 in the sea H3220, so that the ship H591 was like H2803 (H8765) to be broken H7665 (H8736).

5Then the mariners H4419 were afraid H3372 (H8799), and cried H2199 (H8799) every man H376 unto his god H430, and cast forth H2904 (H8686) the wares H3627 that were in the ship H591 into the sea H3220, to lighten H7043 (H8687) it of them. But Jonah H3124 was gone down H3381 (H8804) into the sides H3411 of the ship H5600; and he lay H7901 (H8799), and was fast asleep H7290 (H8735).

6So the shipmaster H7227 H2259 came H7126 (H8799) to him, and said H559 (H8799) unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeper H7290 (H8737)? arise H6965 (H8798), call H7121 (H8798) upon thy God H430, if so be that God H430 will think H6245 (H8691) upon us, that we perish H6 (H8799) not.

7And they said H559 (H8799) every one H376 to his fellow H7453, Come H3212 (H8798), and let us cast H5307 (H8686) lots H1486, that we may know H3045 (H8799) for whose cause H7945 this evil H7451 is upon us. So they cast H5307 (H8686) lots H1486, and the lot H1486 fell H5307 (H8799) upon Jonah H3124.

8Then said H559 (H8799) they unto him, Tell H5046 (H8685) us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evil H7451 is upon us; What is thine occupation H4399? and whence H370 comest H935 (H8799) thou? what is thy country H776? and of what people H5971 art thou?

9And he said H559 (H8799) unto them, I am an Hebrew H5680; and I fear H3373 the LORD H3068, the God H430 of heaven H8064, which hath made H6213 (H8804) the sea H3220 and the dry H3004 land.

10Then were the men H582 exceedingly H1419 H3374 afraid H3372 (H8799), and said H559 (H8799) unto him, Why hast thou done H6213 (H8804) this? For the men H582 knew H3045 (H8804) that he fled H1272 (H8802) from the presence H6440 of the LORD H3068, because he had told H5046 (H8689) them.

11Then said H559 (H8799) they unto him, What shall we do H6213 (H8799) unto thee, that the sea H3220 may be calm H8367 (H8799) unto us? for the sea H3220 wrought H1980 (H8802), and was tempestuous H5590 (H8802).

12And he said H559 (H8799) unto them, Take me up H5375 (H8798), and cast me forth H2904 (H8685) into the sea H3220; so shall the sea H3220 be calm H8367 (H8799) unto you: for I know H3045 (H8802) that for my sake H7945 this great H1419 tempest H5591 is upon you.

13Nevertheless the men H582 rowed hard H2864 (H8799) to bring H7725 (H8687) it to the land H3004; but they could H3201 (H8804) not: for the sea H3220 wrought H1980 (H8802), and was tempestuous H5590 (H8802) against them.

14Wherefore they cried H7121 (H8799) unto the LORD H3068, and said H559 (H8799), We beseech thee H577, O LORD H3068, we beseech thee, let us not perish H6 (H8799) for this man's H376 life H5315, and lay H5414 (H8799) not upon us innocent H5355 (H8675) H5355 blood H1818: for thou, O LORD H3068, hast done H6213 (H8804) as it pleased H2654 (H8804) thee.

15So they took up H5375 (H8799) Jonah H3124, and cast him forth H2904 (H8686) into the sea H3220: and the sea H3220 ceased H5975 (H8799) from her raging H2197.

16Then the men H582 feared H3372 (H8799) the LORD H3068 exceedingly H1419 H3374, and offered H2076 (H8799) a sacrifice H2077 unto the LORD H3068, and made H5087 (H8799) vows H5088.

17Now the LORD H3068 had prepared H4487 (H8762) a great H1419 fish H1709 to swallow up H1104 (H8800) Jonah H3124. And Jonah H3124 was in the belly H4578 of the fish H1709 three H7969 days H3117 and three H7969 nights H3915.
