*
And they said every one to his fellow ,
Come ,
and let us cast lots ,
that we may know for whose cause this evil is upon us .
So they cast lots ,
and the lot fell upon Jonah .
*
Then said they unto him ,
Tell us ,
we pray thee ,
for whose cause this evil is upon us ;
What is thine occupation ?
and whence comest thou ?
what is thy country ?
and of what people art thou ?
*
And he said unto them ,
I am an Hebrew ;
and I fear the LORD ,
the God of heaven ,
which hath made the sea and the dry land .
*
Then were the men exceedingly afraid ,
and said unto him ,
Why hast thou done this ?
For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the LORD ,
because he had told them .
