    1 Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,

    2 Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness has come up before me.

    3 But Jonah rose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD, and went down to Joppa; and he found a ship going to Tarshish: so he paid the fare and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.

    4 But the LORD sent out a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty storm in the sea, so that the ship was about to be broken.

    5 Then the mariners were afraid, and every man cried to his god, and they threw the cargo that was in the ship into the sea, to lighten it. But Jonah had gone down into the sides of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep.

    6 So the shipmaster came to him, and said to him, What do you mean, O sleeper? arise, call upon your God, perhaps that God will consider us, that we do not perish.

    7 And they said every one to his fellow, Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is upon us. So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah.

    8 Then they said to him, Tell us, we pray you, for whose cause this evil is upon us; What is your occupation? and from where do you come? what is your country? and of what people are you?

    9 And he said to them, I am a Hebrew; and I fear the LORD, the God of heaven, who has made the sea and the dry land.

    10 Then the men were exceedingly afraid, and said to him, Why have you done this? For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them.

    11 Then they said to him, What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm for us? for the sea was rough, and was tempestuous.

    12 And he said to them, Take me up, and throw me into the sea; so shall the sea be calm for you: for I know that for my sake this great storm is upon you.

    13 Nevertheless the men rowed hard to bring it to land; but they could not: for the sea worked, and was tempestuous against them.

    14 Therefore they cried to the LORD, and said, We beseech you, O LORD, we beseech you, let us not perish for this man's life, and lay not upon us innocent blood: for you, O LORD, have done as it pleased you.

    15 So they took up Jonah, and threw him into the sea: and the sea ceased from its raging.
