Jonah 1:10-12
Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said unto
him. Why hast thou done this? For the men knew that he fled from the
presence of the Lord, because he had told them.
Then said they unto him, What shall we do unto thee, that the sea may be calm unto us? for the sea wrought, and was tempestuous.
And
he said unto them, Take me up, and cast me forth into the sea; so shall
the sea be calm unto you: for I know that for my sake this great
tempest is upon you.
