1 And there is a word of YHWH to Jonah son of Amittai, saying, 2 “Rise, go to Nineveh, the great city, and proclaim against it that their wickedness has come up before Me.” 3 And Jonah rises to flee to Tarshish from the face of YHWH, and goes down [to] Joppa, and finds a ship going [to] Tarshish, and he gives its fare, and goes down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the face of YHWH. 4 And YHWH has cast a great wind on the sea, and there is a great storm in the sea, and the ship has reckoned to be broken; 5 and the mariners are afraid, and they each cry to his god, and cast the goods that [are] in the ship into the sea, to make [it] light of them; and Jonah has gone down to the sides of the vessel, and he lies down, and is fast asleep.
