Jonah 1:5 in Context — Jonah 1
3 Et Jonas se leva pour s’enfuir à Tarsis, loin de la face de l’Éternel. Il descendit à Japho, et il trouva un navire qui allait à Tarsis; il paya le prix du transport, et s’embarqua pour aller avec les passagers à Tarsis, loin de la face de l’Éternel.
4 Mais l’Éternel fit souffler sur la mer un vent impétueux, et il s’éleva sur la mer une grande tempête. Le navire menaçait de faire naufrage.
5 Les mariniers eurent peur, ils implorèrent chacun leur dieu, et ils jetèrent dans la mer les objets qui étaient sur le navire, afin de se le rendre plus léger. Jonas descendit au fond du navire, se coucha, et s’endormit profondément.
6 Le pilote s’approcha de lui, et lui dit: Pourquoi dors-tu? Lève-toi, invoque ton Dieu! Peut-être voudra-t-il penser à nous, et nous ne périrons pas.
7 Et ils se dirent l’un à l’autre: Venez, et tirons au sort, pour savoir qui nous attire ce malheur. Ils tirèrent au sort, et le sort tomba sur Jonas.
