Jon 01:01 ¶ Now the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came unto
Jonah <03124> the son <01121> of Amittai <0573>, saying <0559>
(8800),
Jon 01:02 Arise <06965> (8798), go <03212> (8798) to Nineveh
<05210>, that great <01419> city <05892>, and cry <07121> (8798)
against it; for their wickedness <07451> is come up <05927>
(8804) before <06440> me.
Jon 01:03 But Jonah <03124> rose up <06965> (8799) to flee
<01272> (8800) unto Tarshish <08659> from the presence <06440>
of the LORD <03068>, and went down <03381> (8799) to Joppa
<03305>; and he found <04672> (8799) a ship <0591> going <0935>
(8802) to Tarshish <08659>: so he paid <05414> (8799) the fare
<07939> thereof, and went down <03381> (8799) into it, to go
<0935> (8800) with them unto Tarshish <08659> from the presence
<06440> of the LORD <03068>.
Jon 01:04 ¶ But the LORD <03068> sent out <02904> (8689) a great
<01419> wind <07307> into the sea <03220>, and there was a
mighty <01419> tempest <05591> in the sea <03220>, so that the
ship <0591> was like <02803> (8765) to be broken <07665> (8736).
Jon 01:05 Then the mariners <04419> were afraid <03372> (8799),
and cried <02199> (8799) every man <0376> unto his god <0430>,
and cast forth <02904> (8686) the wares <03627> that were in the
ship <0591> into the sea <03220>, to lighten <07043> (8687) it
of them. But Jonah <03124> was gone down <03381> (8804) into the
sides <03411> of the ship <05600>; and he lay <07901> (8799),
and was fast asleep <07290> (8735).
Jon 01:06 So the shipmaster <07227> <02259> came <07126> (8799)
to him, and said <0559> (8799) unto him, What meanest thou, O
sleeper <07290> (8737)? arise <06965> (8798), call <07121>
(8798) upon thy God <0430>, if so be that God <0430> will think
<06245> (8691) upon us, that we perish <06> (8799) not.
Jon 01:07 And they said <0559> (8799) every one <0376> to his
fellow <07453>, Come <03212> (8798), and let us cast <05307>
(8686) lots <01486>, that we may know <03045> (8799) for whose
cause <07945> this evil <07451> is upon us. So they cast <05307>
(8686) lots <01486>, and the lot <01486> fell <05307> (8799)
upon Jonah <03124>.
Jon 01:08 Then said <0559> (8799) they unto him, Tell <05046>
(8685) us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evil <07451> is
upon us; What is thine occupation <04399>? and whence <0370>
comest <0935> (8799) thou? what is thy country <0776>? and of
what people <05971> art thou?
Jon 01:09 And he said <0559> (8799) unto them, I am an Hebrew
<05680>; and I fear <03373> the LORD <03068>, the God <0430> of
heaven <08064>, which hath made <06213> (8804) the sea <03220>
and the dry <03004> land.
Jon 01:10 Then were the men <0582> exceedingly <01419> <03374>
afraid <03372> (8799), and said <0559> (8799) unto him, Why hast
thou done <06213> (8804) this? For the men <0582> knew <03045>
(8804) that he fled <01272> (8802) from the presence <06440> of
the LORD <03068>, because he had told <05046> (8689) them.
Jon 01:11 ¶ Then said <0559> (8799) they unto him, What shall we
do <06213> (8799) unto thee, that the sea <03220> may be calm
<08367> (8799) unto us? for the sea <03220> wrought <01980>
(8802), and was tempestuous <05590> (8802).
Jon 01:12 And he said <0559> (8799) unto them, Take me up
<05375> (8798), and cast me forth <02904> (8685) into the sea
<03220>; so shall the sea <03220> be calm <08367> (8799) unto
you: for I know <03045> (8802) that for my sake <07945> this
great <01419> tempest <05591> is upon you.
Jon 01:13 Nevertheless the men <0582> rowed hard <02864> (8799)
to bring <07725> (8687) it to the land <03004>; but they could
<03201> (8804) not: for the sea <03220> wrought <01980> (8802),
and was tempestuous <05590> (8802) against them.
Jon 01:14 Wherefore they cried <07121> (8799) unto the LORD
<03068>, and said <0559> (8799), We beseech thee <0577>, O LORD
<03068>, we beseech thee, let us not perish <06> (8799) for this
man’s <0376> life <05315>, and lay <05414> (8799) not upon us
innocent <05355> (8675) <05355> blood <01818>: for thou, O LORD
<03068>, hast done <06213> (8804) as it pleased <02654> (8804)
thee.
Jon 01:15 So they took up <05375> (8799) Jonah <03124>, and
cast him forth <02904> (8686) into the sea <03220>: and the sea
<03220> ceased <05975> (8799) from her raging <02197>.
Jon 01:16 Then the men <0582> feared <03372> (8799) the LORD
<03068> exceedingly <01419> <03374>, and offered <02076> (8799)
a sacrifice <02077> unto the LORD <03068>, and made <05087>
(8799) vows <05088>.
Jon 01:17 Now the LORD <03068> had prepared <04487> (8762) a
great <01419> fish <01709> to swallow up <01104> (8800) Jonah
<03124>. And Jonah <03124> was in the belly <04578> of the fish
<01709> three <07969> days <03117> and three <07969> nights
<03915>.
Jon 02:01 ¶ Then Jonah <03124> prayed <06419> (8691) unto the
LORD <03068> his God <0430> out of the fish’s <01710> belly
<04578>,
Jon 02:02 And said <0559> (8799), I cried <07121> (8804) by
reason of mine affliction <06869> unto the LORD <03068>, and he
heard <06030> (8799) me; out of the belly <0990> of hell <07585>
cried <07768> (8765) I, and thou heardest <08085> (8804) my
voice <06963>.
Jon 02:03 For thou hadst cast <07993> (8686) me into the deep
<04688>, in the midst <03824> of the seas <03220>; and the
floods <05104> compassed <05437> (8779) me about: all thy
billows <04867> and thy waves <01530> passed over <05674> (8804)
me.
Jon 02:04 Then I said <0559> (8804), I am cast out <01644>
(8738) of thy sight <05869>; yet I will look <05027> (8687)
again <03254> (8686) toward thy holy <06944> temple <01964>.
Jon 02:05 The waters <04325> compassed me about <0661> (8804),
even to the soul <05315>: the depth <08415> closed me round
about <05437> (8779), the weeds <05488> were wrapped about
<02280> (8803) my head <07218>.
Jon 02:06 I went down <03381> (8804) to the bottoms <07095> of
the mountains <02022>; the earth <0776> with her bars <01280>
was about me for ever <05769>: yet hast thou brought up <05927>
(8686) my life <02416> from corruption <07845>, O LORD <03068>
my God <0430>.
Jon 02:07 When my soul <05315> fainted <05848> (8692) within me
I remembered <02142> (8804) the LORD <03068>: and my prayer
<08605> came in <0935> (8799) unto thee, into thine holy <06944>
temple <01964>.
Jon 02:08 They that observe <08104> (8764) lying <07723>
vanities <01892> forsake <05800> (8799) their own mercy <02617>.
Jon 02:09 But I will sacrifice <02076> (8799) unto thee with
the voice <06963> of thanksgiving <08426>; I will pay <07999>
(8762) that that I have vowed <05087> (8804). Salvation <03444>
is of the LORD <03068>.
Jon 02:10 ¶ And the LORD <03068> spake <0559> (8799) unto the
fish <01709>, and it vomited out <06958> (8686) Jonah <03124>
upon the dry <03004> land.
Jon 03:01 ¶ And the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came unto
Jonah <03124> the second <08145> time, saying <0559> (8800),
Jon 03:02 Arise <06965> (8798), go <03212> (8798) unto Nineveh
<05210>, that great <01419> city <05892>, and preach <07121>
(8798) unto it the preaching <07150> that I bid <01696> (8802)
