Desobediencia de Jonás
1 La palabra del Señor vino a Jonás(A), hijo de Amitai: 2 «Levántate, ve a Nínive, la gran ciudad(B), y proclama contra ella(C), porque su maldad ha subido hasta Mí(D)». 3 Jonás se levantó, pero para huir a Tarsis, lejos de la presencia del Señor. Y descendiendo a Jope(E), encontró un barco que iba a Tarsis, pagó el pasaje y entró en él para ir con ellos a Tarsis(F), lejos de la presencia del Señor(G).
4 Pero el Señor desató sobre el mar un fuerte viento, y hubo una tempestad tan grande en el mar(H) que el barco estuvo a punto de romperse. 5 Los marineros tuvieron miedo y cada uno clamaba a su dios(I); y arrojaron al mar la carga que estaba en el barco para aligerarlo(J). Pero Jonás había bajado a la bodega del barco, se había acostado y dormía profundamente. 6 El capitán se le acercó y le dijo: «¿Cómo es que estás durmiendo? ¡Levántate, invoca a tu Dios(K)! Quizás tu Dios piense en nosotros y no pereceremos(L)». 7 Y cada uno dijo a su compañero: «Vengan, echemos suertes(M) para saber por causa de quién nos ha venido esta calamidad». Y echaron suertes, y cayó la suerte sobre Jonás(N). 8 Entonces le dijeron: «Decláranos ahora(O) por causa de quién nos ha venido esta calamidad. ¿Qué oficio tienes(P), y de dónde vienes? ¿Cuál es tu tierra, y de qué pueblo eres?». 9 Él les respondió: «Soy hebreo(Q), y temo al Señor(R) Dios del cielo(S), que hizo el mar y la tierra(T)».
10 Los hombres se atemorizaron en gran manera y le dijeron: «¿Qué es esto que has hecho?». Porque ellos sabían que él huía de la presencia del Señor(U), por lo que él les había declarado. 11 Ellos le preguntaron: «¿Qué haremos contigo para que el mar se calme alrededor nuestro?». Pues el mar se embravecía más y más. 12 Y él les respondió: «Tómenme y láncenme al mar, y el mar se calmará alrededor de ustedes, pues yo sé que por mi causa ha venido esta gran tempestad sobre ustedes(V)». 13 Los hombres se pusieron a remar con afán para volver a tierra firme, pero no pudieron, porque el mar seguía embraveciéndose contra ellos. 14 Entonces invocaron al Señor(W), y dijeron: «Te rogamos, oh Señor, no permitas que perezcamos ahora por causa de la vida de este hombre, ni pongas sobre nosotros sangre inocente; porque Tú, Señor, has hecho como has deseado(X)».
15 Tomaron, pues, a Jonás y lo lanzaron al mar; y el mar cesó en su furia(Y). 16 Y aquellos hombres temieron en gran manera al Señor; ofrecieron un sacrificio al Señor y le hicieron votos(Z).
17 [a]Y el Señor dispuso un gran pez que se tragara a Jonás; y Jonás estuvo en el vientre del pez tres días y tres noches(AA).

Jonah Flees From the Lord
1 The word of the Lord came to Jonah(A) son of Amittai:(B) 2 “Go to the great city of Nineveh(C) and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.”
3 But Jonah ran(D) away from the Lord and headed for Tarshish(E). He went down to Joppa,(F) where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the Lord.(G)
4 Then the Lord sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up.(H) 5 All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship.(I)
But Jonah had gone below deck, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep. 6 The captain went to him and said, “How can you sleep? Get up and call(J) on your god! Maybe he will take notice of us so that we will not perish.”(K)
7 Then the sailors said to each other, “Come, let us cast lots to find out who is responsible for this calamity.”(L) They cast lots and the lot fell on Jonah.(M) 8 So they asked him, “Tell us, who is responsible for making all this trouble for us? What kind of work do you do? Where do you come from? What is your country? From what people are you?”
9 He answered, “I am a Hebrew and I worship the Lord,(N) the God of heaven,(O) who made the sea(P) and the dry land.(Q)”
10 This terrified them and they asked, “What have you done?” (They knew he was running away from the Lord, because he had already told them so.)
11 The sea was getting rougher and rougher. So they asked him, “What should we do to you to make the sea calm down for us?”
12 “Pick me up and throw me into the sea,” he replied, “and it will become calm. I know that it is my fault that this great storm has come upon you.”(R)
13 Instead, the men did their best to row back to land. But they could not, for the sea grew even wilder than before.(S) 14 Then they cried out to the Lord, “Please, Lord, do not let us die for taking this man’s life. Do not hold us accountable for killing an innocent man,(T) for you, Lord, have done as you pleased.”(U) 15 Then they took Jonah and threw him overboard, and the raging sea grew calm.(V) 16 At this the men greatly feared(W) the Lord, and they offered a sacrifice to the Lord and made vows(X) to him.
Jonah’s Prayer
17 Now the Lord provided(Y) a huge fish to swallow Jonah,(Z) and Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.

Jonah’s Disobedience
1 The word of the Lord came to (A)Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, 2 “Arise, go to (B)Nineveh, the great city, and (C)cry out against it, because their (D)wickedness has come up before Me.” 3 But Jonah got up to flee to (E)Tarshish (F)from the presence of the Lord. So he went down to (G)Joppa, found a ship that was going to Tarshish, paid the fare, and [a]boarded it to go with them to Tarshish away from the presence of the Lord.
4 However, the (H)Lord hurled a great wind on the sea and there was a great storm on the sea, so that the ship was about to [b]break up. 5 Then the sailors became afraid and every man cried out to (I)his [c]god, and they (J)hurled the [d]cargo which was in the ship into the sea to lighten it [e]for them. But Jonah had gone below into the stern of the ship, had lain down, and fallen sound asleep. 6 So the captain approached him and said, “How is it that you are sleeping? Get up, (K)call on your god! Perhaps your (L)god will be concerned about us so that we will not perish.”
7 And each man said to his mate, “Come, let’s (M)cast lots so that we may [f]find out on whose account this catastrophe has struck us.” So they cast lots, and the (N)lot fell on Jonah. 8 Then they said to him, “(O)Tell us, now! On whose account has this catastrophe struck us? What is your (P)occupation, and where do you come from? What is your country, and from what people are you?” 9 So he said to them, “I am a (Q)Hebrew, and I (R)fear the Lord (S)God of heaven who (T)made the sea and the dry land.”
10 Then the men became extremely afraid, and they said to him, “[g]How could you do this?” For the men knew that he was (U)fleeing from the presence of the Lord, because he had told them. 11 So they said to him, “What should we do to you so that the sea will become calm [h]for us?”—for the sea was becoming increasingly stormy. 12 And he said to them, “Pick me up and hurl me into the sea. Then the sea will become calm [i]for you, because I know that (V)on account of me this great storm has come upon you.” 13 However, the men [j]rowed desperately to return to land, but they could not, because the sea was becoming even stormier against them. 14 Then they cried out to the (W)Lord and said, “We earnestly pray, O Lord, do not let us perish on account of this man’s life, and do not put innocent blood on us; for (X)You, Lord, have done as You pleased.”
15 So they picked up Jonah and hurled him into the sea, and the sea (Y)stopped its raging. 16 Then the men became extremely afraid of the Lord, and they offered a sacrifice to the Lord and made (Z)vows.
17 [k]And the Lord designated a great fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was in the (AA)stomach of the fish for three days and three nights.
