Jonah 1:13-16

13However, the menH376 1rowedH2864 desperately to returnH7725 to landH3004 but they couldH3201 not, for the seaH3220 was becomingH1980 even stormierH5590 againstH5921 them. 14Then they calledH7121 on the 2LordH3068 and saidH559, “We earnestlyH577 prayH577, OH577 LordH3068, do not let us perishH6 on account of thisH2088 man’sH376 lifeH5315 and do not putH5414 innocentH5355 bloodH1818 on us; for 3You, O LordH3068, have doneH6213 as You have pleasedH2654.”

15So they pickedH5375 up JonahH3124, threwH2904 him into the seaH3220, and the seaH3220 4stoppedH5975 its ragingH2197. 16Then the menH376 fearedH3372 the LordH3068 greatlyH1419, and they offeredH2076 a sacrificeH2077 to the LordH3068 and madeH5087 5vowsH5088.
