Jonah 1:7-8

English Standard Version

Jonah Is Thrown into the Sea

⁷ And they said to one another, “Come, let us ^(A)cast lots, that we may know on whose account this evil has come upon us.” So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah. ⁸ Then they said to him, “Tell us on whose account this evil has come upon us. What is your occupation? And where do you come from? What is your country? And of what people are you?”
