-- --

1   And the word of our Lord was made to Ionas the sonne of Amathi, saying:

2   Arise, and goe into note Niniue the great citie, and preach in it: because the malice therof is ascended before me.

3   And Ionas arose, note to flee into Tharsis from the face of our Lord, and he went downe into Ioppe, and found a shippe going into Tharsis: and he gaue the fare therof, & went downe into it, that he might goe with them into Tharsis from the face of our Lord.

4   But our Lord sent a great winde into the sea: and a great tempest was made in the sea, & the shippe was in danger to be broken.

5   And the mariners were afrayd, and the men cried to their god: & they threw the vessels, that were in the shippe, into the sea, that it might be lightned of them: and Ionas went downe into the inner part of the shippe, and slept a deepe sleepe.

6   And the gouerner came to him, & sayd to him: Why art thou oppressed with sleepe? Rise, inuocate thy God, if perhaps God wil thinke of vs, and we perish not.

7   And euerie one sayd to his felow: Come, and note let vs cast lottes, and know why this euil is to vs. And they cast lottes, and the lot fel vpon Ionas.

8   And they sayd to him: Tel vs for whose cause this euil is to vs, what is thy worke? what is thy countrie? and whither goest thou? or of what people art thou?

9   And he sayd to them: I am an Hebrew & the Lord God of heauen I feare, which made the sea and the drie land.

10   And the men feared with great feare, and they sayd to him: Why hast thou done this? (For the men knew that he fled from the face of our Lord: because he had told them.)

11   And they sayd to him: What shal we do to thee, and the sea shal cease from vs? because the sea went, and swelled.

12   And he sayd to them: Take me vp, and cast me into the sea, and the sea shal cease from you: for I know that for me this great tempest is vpon you.

13   And the men rowed, to returne to the land, and they were not able: because the sea went and swelled vpon them.

14   And they cried to our Lord, and sayd: We besech thee ô Lord, let vs not perish in the life of this man, and geue not vpon vs innocent bloud: because thou ô Lord, hast done as thou wouldest.

15   And they tooke Ionas, and cast him into the sea: and the sea ceased from his rage.

16   And the men feared our Lord with great feare, & note immolated hostes to our Lord, and vowed vowes.
