How did the mariners know that Jonah was the cause of their problem?
They cast lots
The captain told them
He refused to pray
God revealed it to him

Explanation

In Jonah 1:7, the mariners, during the storm, cast lots to determine who was responsible for the calamity they were facing. The lot fell on Jonah, revealing that he was the cause of the storm.

 "And they said to one another, ‘Come, let us cast lots, that we may know on whose account this calamity has struck us.’ So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah."
