Jonah 1:11-13

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹¹ Then, because the storm on the sea kept getting worse, they said to him, “What should we do to you, to quiet the sea that is raging against us?”

¹² He said to them, “Pick me up and throw me into the sea. Then the sea will calm down for you, for I know that this violent storm striking against you has come about because of me.”

¹³ Instead, the men rowed hard to return the ship to dry land, but they could not, because the storm on the sea kept getting worse for them.
