8Then they saidH559 to him, “1TellH5046 us, nowH4994! On whoseH4310 account has thisH2088 catastropheH7463 struck us? WhatH4100 is your 2occupationH4399, and whereH370 do you comeH935 from? WhatH4100 is your countryH776, and from whatH335H2088 peopleH5971 are you?” 9So he saidH559 to them, “I am a 3HebrewH5680, and I 4fearH3372 the LordH3068 5GodH430 of heavenH8064 whoH834 6madeH6213 the seaH3220 and the dryH3004 landH3004.”

10Then the menH376 becameH3372 extremelyH3374H1419 afraidH3372, and they saidH559 to him, “7HowH4100 could you doH6213 thisH2088?” For the menH376 knewH3045 that he was 8fleeingH1272 from the presenceH6440 of the LordH3068, becauseH3588 he had toldH5046 them.
