- Kapitel 1 -

(Nahum 1:1–15)
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.

The Great Storm

(Acts 27:13–26)
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.
6
And the chief of the company draws near to him and says to him, “What are you [doing], O sleeper? Rise, call to your God, it may be God considers Himself of us, and we do not perish.”
7
And they each say to his neighbor, “Come, and we cast lots, and we know on whose account this evil [is] on us.” And they cast lots, and the lot falls on Jonah.
8
And they say to him, “Now declare to us, on whose account [is] this evil on us? What [is] your occupation, and where do you come from? What [is] your country, seeing you are not of this people?”
9
And he says to them, “Ia Hebrew, and I fear YHWH, God of the heavens, who made the sea and the dry land.”
10
And the men fear a great fear, and say to him, “What [is] this you have done!” For the men have known that he is fleeing from the face of YHWH, for he has told them.

Jonah Cast into the Sea

11
And they say to him, “What do we do to you that the sea may cease from us, for the sea is more and more turbulent?”
12
And he says to them, “Lift me up, and cast me into the sea, and the sea ceases from you; for I know that on my account this great storm [is] on you.”
13
And the men row to turn back to the dry land, and are not able, for the sea is more and more turbulent against them.
14
And they cry to YHWH, and say, “Ah, now, O YHWH, please do not let us perish for this man’s life, and do not lay innocent blood on us! For You, YHWH, as You have pleased, You have done.”
15
And they lift up Jonah, and cast him into the sea, and the sea ceases from its raging;
16
and the men fear YHWH [with] a great fear, and sacrifice a sacrifice to YHWH, and vow vows.
17
And YHWH appoints a great fish to swallow up Jonah, and Jonah is in the bowels of the fish three days and three nights.
(Nahum 1:1–15)
1
Now the LORD’s(a) word came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,
2
Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach against it, for their wickedness has come up before me.”
3
But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. He went down to Joppa, and found a ship going to Tarshish; so he paid its fare, and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.

The Great Storm

(Acts 27:13–26)
4
But the LORD sent out a great wind on the sea, and there was a mighty storm on the sea, so that the ship was likely to break up.
5
Then the mariners were afraid, and every man cried to his god. They threw the cargo that was in the ship into the sea to lighten the ship. But Jonah had gone down into the innermost parts of the ship and he was laying down, and was fast asleep.
6
So the ship master came to him, and said to him, “What do you mean, sleeper? Arise, call on your God!(b) Maybe your God (c) will notice us, so that we won’t perish.”
7
They all said to each other, “Come! Let’s cast lots, that we may know who is responsible for this evil that is on us.” So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah.
8
Then they asked him, “Tell us, please, for whose cause this evil is on us. What is your occupation? Where do you come from? What is your country? Of what people are you?”
9
He said to them, “I am a Hebrew, and I fear the LORD, the God (d) of heaven, who has made the sea and the dry land.”
10
Then the men were exceedingly afraid, and said to him, “What have you done?” For the men knew that he was fleeing from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them.

Jonah Cast into the Sea

11
Then they said to him, “What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm to us?” For the sea grew more and more stormy.
12
He said to them, “Take me up, and throw me into the sea. Then the sea will be calm for you; for I know that because of me this great storm is on you.”
13
Nevertheless the men rowed hard to get them back to the land; but they could not, for the sea grew more and more stormy against them.
14
Therefore they cried to the LORD, and said, “We beg you, LORD, we beg you, don’t let us die for this man’s life, and don’t lay on us innocent blood; for you, LORD, have done as it pleased you.”
15
So they took up Jonah and threw him into the sea; and the sea ceased its raging.
16
Then the men feared the LORD exceedingly; and they offered a sacrifice to the LORD and made vows.
17
The LORD prepared a huge fish to swallow up Jonah, and Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
