Jonah 1:11-13
Young's Literal Translation
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?'
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.'
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.

Jonah 1:11-13
New International Version
11 The sea was getting rougher and rougher. So they asked him, “What should we do to you to make the sea calm down for us?”
12 “Pick me up and throw me into the sea,” he replied, “and it will become calm. I know that it is my fault that this great storm has come upon you.”(A)
13 Instead, the men did their best to row back to land. But they could not, for the sea grew even wilder than before.(B)
