Jonah 1:4 in Context — Jonah 1

2 Levanta-te, vai à grande cidade de Nínive, e prega contra ela; porque sua maldade subiu diante de mim.

3 Porém Jonas se levantou para fugir da presença do SENHOR a Társis, e desceu a Jope; e achou um navio que partia para Társis. Então pagou sua passagem e entrou nele, para ir com eles a Társis [a fim de se distanciar] do SENHOR.

4 Mas o SENHOR fez levantar um grande vento no mar; e fez-se uma tempestade tão grande no mar, que o navio estava a ponto de se quebrar.

5 Então os marinheiros tiveram medo, e cada um clamava a seu deus; e lançaram no mar os objetos que havia no navio, para com eles diminuir o peso. Jonas, porém, havia descido ao interior do navio, e se pôs a dormir profundamente.

6 E o capitão do navio se aproximou dele, e lhe disse: Que há contigo, dorminhoco? Levanta-te, e clama a teu deus; talvez ele se lembre de nós, para que não pereçamos.
