Jonah 1:11

Good News Translation

The storm was getting worse all the time, so the sailors asked him, “What should we do to you to stop the storm?”

See the chapter Copy

Jonah went on to tell them that he was running away from the Lord. The sailors were terrified, and said to him, “That was an awful thing to do!”

Jonah answered, “Throw me into the sea, and it will calm down. I know it is my fault that you are caught in this violent storm.”
