"the men on the ship said to Jonah" or "the sailors said to Jonah"

## do to you so that the sea will calm down ##
|
|
|
|
"do with you in order to make the sea become calm" (UDB)

This was the reason that the men asked Jonah what they should do. The reason can also be at the beginning of the verse 11 it is in the UDB.

## for I know that it is because of me that this great storm is happening to you ##
|
|
|
|
"because I know this large storm is my fault"
|
|
|
|
## Nevertheless, the men rowed hard to get them back to the land ##
|
|
|
|
The reason they did this can be stated explicitly: "But the men did not want to throw Jonah into the sea, so they rowed hard to get back to land." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])

## sea grew more and more violent ##
|
|
|
|
"the storm became worse and the waves became bigger" |
