Verse 7
As Jonah was feeling that his life was ebbing away, his thoughts turned to Yahweh (cf. Psalms 107:5-6; Psalms 142:3; Psalms 142:5-7). Even though he felt far from God his prayer reached the Lord in His heavenly dwelling place.
"As in Jonah 1:6, prayer is presented as the key to the salvation of the one who would otherwise have perished." [Note: Allen, p. 218. Cf. Hebrews 4:16.]
