Jonah 1:11-13

International Children’s Bible

¹¹ The wind and the waves of the sea were becoming much stronger. So the men said to Jonah, “What should we do to you to make the sea calm down?”

¹² Jonah said to them, “Pick me up, and throw me into the sea. Then it will calm down. I know it is my fault that this great storm has come on you.”

¹³ Instead, the men tried to row the ship back to the land. But they could not. The wind and the waves of the sea were becoming much stronger.
