Jonah 1:9-11

English Standard Version

⁹ And he said to them, “I am a Hebrew, and I fear ^(A)the Lord, the God of heaven, ^(B)who made the sea and the dry land.” ¹⁰ Then the men were exceedingly afraid and said to him, “What is this that you have done!” For the men knew that ^(C)he was fleeing from the presence of the Lord, because he had told them.

¹¹ Then they said to him, “What shall we do to you, that the sea may quiet down for us?” For the sea grew more and more tempestuous.
