'Sailors' in the Bible

Hiram sent his fleet and some of his sailors, who were well acquainted with the sea, to serve with Solomon's men.

Then Ahaziah son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, "Let my sailors join yours in the fleet," but Jehoshaphat refused.

Huram sent him ships and some of his sailors, men who were well acquainted with the sea. They sailed with Solomon's men to Ophir, and took from there 450 talents of gold, which they brought back to King Solomon.

They reached up to the sky, then dropped into the depths. The sailors' strength left them because the danger was so great.

The sailors rejoiced because the waves grew quiet, and he led them to the harbor they desired.

Your wealth, products, and merchandise, your sailors and captains, your ship's carpenters, your merchants, and all your fighting men within you, along with all your crew who are in you, will fall into the heart of the seas on the day of your downfall.

They will descend from their ships -- all who handle the oar, the sailors and all the sea captains -- they will stand on the land.

The sailors were so afraid that each cried out to his own god and they flung the ship's cargo overboard to make the ship lighter. Jonah, meanwhile, had gone down into the hold below deck, had lain down, and was sound asleep.

The sailors said to one another, "Come on, let's cast lots to find out whose fault it is that this disaster has overtaken us." So they cast lots, and Jonah was singled out.
