Jonah 1:4-5

4Then the Lord sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up.

5All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship. But Jonah had gone below deck, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep.
