Jonah 1:13-16

English Standard Version

¹³ Nevertheless, the men rowed hard^[a] to get back to dry land, but they could not, for the sea grew more and more tempestuous against them. ¹⁴ Therefore they called out to the Lord, “O Lord, let us not perish for this man's life, and ^(A)lay not on us innocent blood, ^(B)for you, O Lord, have done as it pleased you.” ¹⁵ So they picked up Jonah and hurled him into the sea, ^(C)and the sea ceased from its raging. ¹⁶ Then the men feared the Lord exceedingly, ^(D)and they offered a sacrifice to the Lord ^(E)and made vows.
