14 Therefore they cried out to the Lord and said, “We pray, O Lord, please do not let us perish for this man’s life, and ado not charge us with innocent blood; for You, O Lord, bhave done as it pleased You.”
15 So they picked up Jonah and threw him into the sea, aand the sea ceased from its raging.
