KJV - Jonah 1:7
And they said every one to his fellow, Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is upon us. So they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonah.
They all asked each other, "Let's use chance to find out who's responsible for this trouble. So they did, and it turned out to be Jonah."
