Jonah 1:12-14

Legacy Standard Bible

¹² So he said to them, “Lift me up and hurl me into the sea. Then the sea will become quiet ^[a]for you, for I know that ^(A)on account of me this great storm has come upon you.” ¹³ However, the men ^[b]rowed desperately to return to dry land, but they could not, for the sea was becoming increasingly stormy against them. ¹⁴ Then they called on ^(B)Yahweh and said, “Ah! O Yahweh, we earnestly pray, do not let us perish on account of this man’s life, and do not put innocent blood on us; for ^(C)You, O Yahweh, as You have pleased You have done.”
