3 - Jonah Obeyed The Word Of The Lord And Went To Nineveh. Now Nineveh Was A Very Important City-a Visit Required Three Days.
4 - On The First Day, Jonah Started Into The City. He Proclaimed: "Forty More Days And Nineveh Will Be Overturned."
5 - The Ninevites Believed God. They Declared A Fast, And All Of Them, From The Greatest To The Least, Put On Sackcloth.
6 - When The News Reached The King Of Nineveh, He Rose From His Throne, Took Off His Royal Robes, Covered Himself With Sackcloth And Sat Down In The Dust.
7 - Then He Issued A Proclamation In Nineveh: "By The Decree Of The King And His Nobles: Do Not Let Any Man Or Beast, Herd Or Flock, Taste Anything; Do Not Let Them Eat Or Drink.
8 - But Let Man And Beast Be Covered With Sackcloth. Let Everyone Call Urgently On God. Let Them Give Up Their Evil Ways And Their Violence.
9 - Who Knows? God May Yet Relent And With Compassion Turn From His Fierce Anger So That We Will Not Perish."
10 - When God Saw What They Did And How They Turned From Their Evil Ways, He Had Compassion And Did Not Bring Upon Them The Destruction He Had Threatened.
