4However, the 1LordH3068 hurledH2904 a greatH1419 windH7307 on the seaH3220 and there was a greatH1419 stormH5591 on the seaH3220, so that the shipH591 wasH2803 aboutH2803 toH2803 2breakH7665 upH7665. 5Then the sailorsH4419 becameH3372 afraidH3372 and everyH376 manH376 criedH2199 outH2199 to 3his 4godH430, and they 5hurledH2904 the 6cargoH3627 whichH834 was in the shipH591 into the seaH3220 to lightenH7043 it 7for them. But JonahH3124 had goneH3381 belowH3381 into the sternH3411 of the shipH5600, had lainH7901 downH7901, and fallenH7290 soundH7290 asleepH7290. 6So the captainH7227H2259 approachedH7126 him and saidH559, “HowH4100 is it that you are sleepingH7290? GetH6965 upH6965, 8callH7121 on your godH430! PerhapsH194 your 9godH430 will be concernedH6245 about us so that we will not perishH6.”
