In other words, being called Yes he did, and it can happen to you too. Jonah did not hesitate. Jonah 2:1, 2: "Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the belly of the fish, saying, 'I called to the Lord, out of my distress, and he answered me.'" They prayed to their idols and God answered via casting lots. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port.
In this too we need to imitate Jonah’s faith. There is the simple statement that sums up what happened when Jonah sank in the water: he cried out to … Jonah's Anger at the LORD's Compassion … 8 As the sun was rising, God appointed a scorching east wind, and the sun beat down on Jonah’s head so that he grew faint and wished to die, saying, “It is better for me to die than to live.” 9 Then God asked Jonah, “Have you any right to be angry about the plant?” “I do,” he replied. He said the fish is operating under my wheel so God says if the fish would have did what Jonah did Jonah would have died in his situation.

Jonah, the Jew. * Jonah served as a prophet during the reign of King Jeroboam II of the ten-tribe kingdom of Israel. But that he’s taking it “to prevent catching COVID-19” is something Goldberg and the rest of the useless, discredited and disgraced media completely made up. There would have been no need whatever to elicit any confession of guilt from Jonah, if the sailors had had any faith, absolutely, in their casting of lots. Jonah tried to escape in the opposite direction but his ship was hit by a storm at sea, a storm so wild that the men on board thought they would die that day. We all sin; we all make mistakes. By the way, if you think Jonah preached a message of repentance you are wrong. and that's why you gotta get along with God because he wants you to hear his voice to do what he said. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the Lord. What would Jonah do? My point is, disobedience to God always brings danger and hurt to our families, our friends, our traveling companions, our communities, and yes, to those who should be receiving our message which God called us to warn. Read Jonah 3:4.

But with that, as a starting point, they plied the suspected prophet with a series of urgent questions; and Jonah did not disappoint them.
Jonah is an interesting character from the Hebrew Bible (the Old Testament).

He was one of two prophets who actually dealt with people outside of the nation of Israel. Yes, civility is a part of it. But God says I need somebody to listen to my voice in order to save a dying people. You need to understand that Jonah was a man who did not want Nineveh to be saved, he was upset when God had mercy on them, he repeatedly asked God to kill him and wanted God to kill the sinners too... Jonah was not perfect in thought or deed. When he ran away (like slave from captivity) to the ship (fully) laden He (agreed to) cast lots, and he was condemned: Then the big Fish did swallow him, and he had done acts worthy of blame.
