Jonah 1:5-6

5Then the sailors became afraid and every man cried to 1his god, and they 2threw the 3cargo which was in the ship into the sea to lighten it 4for them. But Jonah had gone below into the hold of the ship, lain down and fallen sound asleep. 6So the captain approached him and said, “How is it that you are sleeping? Get up, 5call on your god. Perhaps your 6god will be concerned about us so that we will not perish.”
