Jonah / Question
Question source
Jonah
In Jonah’s prayer, the line is a concluding statement that deliverance comes from the LORD. Jonah says he will sacrifice and pay what he has vowed, then adds, “Salvation belongs to the LORD!” Jonah 2:9. The story immediately moves to God commanding the fish to release him Jonah 2:10.
9But I will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving. I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation belongs to Yahweh."
10Yahweh spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah on the dry land.
