Jonah 1:7-9

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁷ “Come on!” the sailors said to each other. “Let’s cast lots.^(A) Then we’ll know who is to blame for this trouble we’re in.” So they cast lots, and the lot singled out Jonah.^{(B) 8} Then they said to him, “Tell us who is to blame for this trouble we’re in.^(C) What is your business^(D) and where are you from? What is your country and what people are you from?”

⁹ He answered them, “I’m a Hebrew.^(E) I worship^[a] Yahweh,^(F) the God of the heavens,^(G) who made the sea^(H) and the dry land.”
