When a storm approaches, sailors often shout commands to secure the ship, such as "Batten down the hatches!" or "Heave to!" They may also express urgency with phrases like "All hands on deck!" to ensure the crew is prepared for the rough conditions ahead. Additionally, some might invoke traditional nautical expressions like "Hold fast!" to encourage resilience and focus during the tempest.

Why was Jonah thrown overboard?

Jonah was told by God to go and preach to the Ninevites, but Jonah disobeyed and took a ship going in the opposite direction.
