1:1 Now the word [H1697] of the LORD [H3068] came unto Jonah [H3124] the son [H1121] of Amittai [H573] , saying [H559] ,(Jonah: Gr. Jonas)

1:2 Arise [H6965] , go [H3212] to Nineveh [H5210] , that great [H1419] city [H5892] , and cry [H7121] against it; for their wickedness [H7451] is come up [H5927] before [H6440] me.

1:3 But Jonah [H3124] rose up [H6965] to flee [H1272] unto Tarshish [H8659] from the presence [H6440] of the LORD [H3068] , and went down [H3381] to Joppa [H3305] ; and he found [H4672] a ship [H591] going [H935] to Tarshish [H8659] : so he paid [H5414] the fare [H7939] thereof, and went down [H3381] into it, to go [H935] with them unto Tarshish [H8659] from the presence [H6440] of the LORD [H3068] .

1:4 But the LORD [H3068] sent out [H2904] a great [H1419] wind [H7307] into the sea [H3220] , and there was a mighty [H1419] tempest [H5591] in the sea [H3220] , so that the ship [H591] was like [H2803] to be broken [H7665] .(sent out: Heb. cast forth)(was like: Heb. thought to be broken)

1:5 Then the mariners [H4419] were afraid [H3372] , and cried [H2199] every man [H376] unto his god [H430] , and cast forth [H2904] the wares [H3627] that [were] in the ship [H591] into the sea [H3220] , to lighten [H7043] [it] of them. But Jonah [H3124] was gone down [H3381] into the sides [H3411] of the ship [H5600] ; and he lay [H7901] , and was fast asleep [H7290] .

1:6 So the shipmaster [H7227] [H2259] came [H7126] to him, and said [H559] unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeper [H7290] ? arise [H6965] , call [H7121] upon thy God [H430] , if so be that God [H430] will think [H6245] upon us, that we perish [H6] not.

1:7 And they said [H559] every one [H376] to his fellow [H7453] , Come [H3212] , and let us cast [H5307] lots [H1486] , that we may know [H3045] for whose cause [H7945] this evil [H7451] [is] upon us. So they cast [H5307] lots [H1486] , and the lot [H1486] fell [H5307] upon Jonah [H3124] .

1:8 Then said [H559] they unto him, Tell [H5046] us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evil [H7451] [is] upon us; What [is] thine occupation [H4399] ? and whence [H370] comest [H935] thou? what [is] thy country [H776] ? and of what people [H5971] [art] thou?

1:9 And he said [H559] unto them, I [am] an Hebrew [H5680] ; and I fear [H3373] the LORD [H3068] , the God [H430] of heaven [H8064] , which hath made [H6213] the sea [H3220] and the dry [H3004] [land].(the LORD: or, JEHOVAH)

1:10 Then were the men [H582] exceedingly [H1419] [H3374] afraid [H3372] , and said [H559] unto him, Why hast thou done [H6213] this? For the men [H582] knew [H3045] that he fled [H1272] from the presence [H6440] of the LORD [H3068] , because he had told [H5046] them.(exceedingly: Heb. with great fear)

1:11 Then said [H559] they unto him, What shall we do [H6213] unto thee, that the sea [H3220] may be calm [H8367] unto us? for the sea [H3220] wrought [H1980] , and was tempestuous [H5590] .(may: Heb. may be silent from us)(wrought: or, grew more and more tempestuous: Heb. went)

1:12 And he said [H559] unto them, Take me up [H5375] , and cast me forth [H2904] into the sea [H3220] ; so shall the sea [H3220] be calm [H8367] unto you: for I know [H3045] that for my sake [H7945] this great [H1419] tempest [H5591] [is] upon you.

1:13 Nevertheless the men [H582] rowed hard [H2864] to bring [H7725] [it] to the land [H3004] ; but they could [H3201] not: for the sea [H3220] wrought [H1980] , and was tempestuous [H5590] against them.(rowed: Heb. digged)(wrought: or, grew more and more tempestuous: Heb. went)

1:14 Wherefore they cried [H7121] unto the LORD [H3068] , and said [H559] , We beseech thee [H577] , O LORD [H3068] , we beseech thee, let us not perish [H6] for this man's [H376] life [H5315] , and lay [H5414] not upon us innocent [H5355] [heb8675] [H5355] blood [heb1818] : for thou, O LORD [H3068] , hast done [H6213] as it pleased [H2654] thee.

1:15 So they took up [H5375] Jonah [H3124] , and cast him forth [H2904] into the sea [H3220] : and the sea [H3220] ceased [H5975] from her raging [H2197] .(ceased: Heb. stood)

1:16 Then the men [H582] feared [H3372] the LORD [H3068] exceedingly [H1419] [H3374] , and offered [H2076] a sacrifice [H2077] unto the LORD [H3068] , and made [H5087] vows [H5088] .(offered: Heb. sacrifice unto the LORD, and vowed vows)

1:17 Now the LORD [H3068] had prepared [H4487] a great [H1419] fish [H1709] to swallow up [H1104] Jonah [H3124] . And Jonah [H3124] was in the belly [H4578] of the fish [H1709] three [H7969] days [H3117] and three [H7969] nights [H3915] .(belly: Heb. bowels)
