ylt@Jonah:1:1 @And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jonah son of Amittai, saying:

ylt@Jonah:1:2 @'Rise, go unto Nineveh, the great city, and proclaim against it that their wickedness hath come up before Me.'

ylt@Jonah:1:3 @And Jonah riseth to flee to Tarshish from the face of Jehovah, and goeth down [to] Joppa, and findeth a ship going [to] Tarshish, and he giveth its fare, and goeth down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the face of Jehovah.

ylt@Jonah:1:4 @And Jehovah hath cast a great wind on the sea, and there is a great tempest in the sea, and the ship hath reckoned to be broken;

ylt@Jonah:1:5 @and the mariners are afraid, and cry each unto his god, and cast the goods that [are] in the ship into the sea, to make [it] light of them; and Jonah hath gone down unto the sides of the vessel, and he lieth down, and is fast asleep.

ylt@Jonah:1:6 @And the chief of the company draweth near to him, and saith to him, 'What -- to thee, O sleeper? rise, call unto thy God, it may be God doth bethink himself of us, and we do not perish.'

ylt@Jonah:1:7 @And they say each unto his neighbour, 'Come, and we cast lots, and we know on whose account this evil [is] on us.' And they cast lots, and the lot falleth on Jonah.

ylt@Jonah:1:8 @And they say unto him, 'Declare to us, we pray thee, on what account this evil [is] on us? what [is] thine occupation, and whence comest thou? what [is] thy country, seeing thou art not of this people?'

ylt@Jonah:1:9 @And he saith unto them, 'A Hebrew I [am], and Jehovah, God of the heavens, I am reverencing, who made the sea and the dry land.'

ylt@Jonah:1:10 @And the men fear a great fear, and say unto him, 'What [is] this thou hast done!' for the men have known that from the face of Jehovah he is fleeing, for he hath told them.

ylt@Jonah:1:11 @And they say unto him, 'What do we do to thee that the sea may cease from us, for the sea is more and more tempestuous?'

ylt@Jonah:1:12 @And he saith unto them, 'Lift me up, and cast me into the sea, and the sea doth cease from you; for I know that on my account this great tempest [is] upon you.'

ylt@Jonah:1:13 @And the men row to turn back unto the dry land, and are not able, for the sea is more and more tempestuous against them.

ylt@Jonah:1:14 @And they cry unto Jehovah, and say, 'We pray Thee, O Jehovah, let us not, we pray Thee, perish for this man's life, and do not lay on us innocent blood, for Thou, Jehovah, as Thou hast pleased, Thou hast done.'

ylt@Jonah:1:15 @And they lift up Jonah, and cast him into the sea, and the sea ceaseth from its raging;

ylt@Jonah:1:16 @and the men fear Jehovah -- a great fear, and sacrifice a sacrifice to Jehovah, and vow vows.

ylt@Jonah:1:17 @And Jehovah appointeth a great fish to swallow up Jonah, and Jonah is in the bowels of the fish three days and three nights.
