TSK · Jonah 2:9

Let us go up at once to Bethel. Then I will make an altar there to God, who responded to me in my time of distress and has been with me wherever I went.”

You should not turn aside after empty things that can’t profit and can’t deliver, since they are empty.

You will pray to him and he will hear you, and you will fulfill your vows to him.

But the LORD delivers the godly; he protects them in times of trouble.

Whoever presents a thank-offering honors me. To whoever obeys my commands, I will reveal my power to deliver.”

Our God is a God who delivers; the LORD, the sovereign Lord, can rescue from death.

I will present a thank offering to you, and call on the name of the LORD.

Israel will be delivered once and for all by the LORD; you will never again be ashamed or humiliated.

Return to the LORD and repent! Say to him:“Completely forgive our iniquity; accept our penitential prayer, that we may offer the praise of our lips as sacrificial bulls.

And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among people by which we must be saved.”

Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, acknowledging his name.
