Jonah 1:12-16 And he answered them, "Take me and cast me in to the sea, and so shall it let you be in rest: for I know it is for my sake, that this great tempest is come upon you."

MSTC⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And he answered them, "Take me and cast me in to the sea, and so shall it let you be in rest: for I know it is for my sake, that this great tempest is come upon you." ¹³ Nevertheless the men assayed with rowing to bring the ship to land: but it would not be, because the sea so wrought and was so troublous against them. ¹⁴ Wherefore they cried unto the LORD and said, "O LORD let us not perish for this man's death, neither lay innocent blood unto our charge: for thou LORD, even as thy pleasure was, so thou hast done." ¹⁵ And then they took Jonah, and cast him into the sea: and the sea left raging. ¹⁶ And the men feared the LORD exceedingly: and sacrificed sacrifice unto the LORD: and vowed vows.
