Jonah 1:6-8
Young's Literal Translation
6 And the chief of the company draweth near to him, and saith to him, `What -- to thee, O sleeper? rise, call unto thy God, it may be God doth bethink himself of us, and we do not perish.'
7 And they say each unto his neighbour, `Come, and we cast lots, and we know on whose account this evil [is] on us.' And they cast lots, and the lot falleth on Jonah.
8 And they say unto him, `Declare to us, we pray thee, on what account this evil [is] on us? what [is] thine occupation, and whence comest thou? what [is] thy country, seeing thou art not of this people?'

Jonah 1:6-8
New International Version
6 The captain went to him and said, “How can you sleep? Get up and call(A) on your god! Maybe he will take notice of us so that we will not perish.”(B)
7 Then the sailors said to each other, “Come, let us cast lots to find out who is responsible for this calamity.”(C) They cast lots and the lot fell on Jonah.(D) 8 So they asked him, “Tell us, who is responsible for making all this trouble for us? What kind of work do you do? Where do you come from? What is your country? From what people are you?”
