The men feared the Lord (Yahweh) with great fear, and they sacrificed and made vows.
[The verse is composed of three pairs of verbs/nouns with the same root (Hebr. jare/jirah, zavach/zevach and nadar/neder). Offering sacrifices and making vows was a common way of showing gratitude when one had been rescued from danger.]
