Jonah 2:10
And the LORD commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.
BSB
ASV
And Jehovah spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.
KJV
And the Lord spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.
"And the LORD spoke unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land." LXX: 'and he ordered the whale to vomit Jonah out onto the dry land'. That which we read above as being about Jonah, the Lord prayed for in the stomach of the whale about which Job speaks in an unclear way: "let he who curses this day curse him, he who will capture the great whale" [Job. 3:8 LXX].
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
