Jonah 1:2-6
1:2 “Go immediately
to Nineveh,
that
large capital
city,
and announce judgment against
its people
because their wickedness
has come to my attention.”
1:3 Instead, Jonah immediately
headed off to Tarshish
to escape
from the commission of the
Lord.
He traveled
to Joppa
and found a merchant ship heading
to Tarshish.
So he paid the fare
and went aboard
it to go with them
to Tarshish
far away from the
Lord.
1:4 But
the
Lord hurled
a powerful
wind on the sea. Such a violent
tempest arose on the sea that
the ship threatened to break up!
1:5 The sailors were so afraid that each cried out
to his own god
and they flung
the ship’s cargo
overboard
to make the ship lighter.
Jonah, meanwhile,
had gone down
into the hold
below deck,
had lain down, and was sound asleep.
1:6 The ship’s captain approached him and said, “What are you doing asleep?
Get up! Cry out
to your god! Perhaps your god
might take notice of us
so that we might not die!”
