[1]And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto JonahH3124 the secondH8145 time, sayingH559,[H8800]
[2]AriseH6965[H8798], goH3212[H8798] unto NinevehH5210, that greatH1419 cityH5892, and preachH7121[H8798] unto it the preachingH7150 that I bidH1696 theeH8802.
[3]So JonahH3124 aroseH6965[H8799], and wentH3212[H8799] unto NinevehH5210, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068. Now NinevehH5210 was an exceedingH430 greatH1419 cityH5892 of threeH7969 days'H3117 journeyH4109.
[4]And JonahH3124 beganH2490[H8686] to enterH935[H8800] into the cityH5892 aH259 day'sH3117 journeyH4109, and he criedH7121[H8799], and saidH559[H8799], Yet fortyH705 daysH3117, and NinevehH5210 shall be overthrownH2015.[H8737]
[5]So the peopleH582 of NinevehH5210 believedH539[H8686] GodH430, and proclaimedH7121[H8799] a fastH6685, and putH3847[H8799] on sackclothH8242, from the greatestH1419 of them even to the least of themH6996.
[6]For wordH1697 cameH5060[H8799] unto the kingH4428 of NinevehH5210, and he aroseH6965[H8799] from his throneH3678, and he laidH5674[H8686] his robeH155 from him, and coveredH3680[H8762] him with sackclothH8242, and satH3427[H8799] in ashesH665.
[7]And he caused it to be proclaimedH2199[H8686] and publishedH559[H8799] through NinevehH5210 by the decreeH2940 of the kingH4428 and his noblesH1419, sayingH559[H8800], Let neither manH120 nor beastH929, herdH1241 nor flockH6629, tasteH2938[H8799] any thingH3972: let them not feedH7462[H8799], nor drinkH8354[H8799] waterH4325:
[8]But let manH120 and beastH929 be coveredH3680[H8691] with sackclothH8242, and cryH7121[H8799] mightilyH2394 unto GodH430: yea, let them turnH7725[H8799] every oneH376 from his evilH7451 wayH1870, and from the violenceH2555 that is in their handsH3709.
[9]Who can tellH3045[H8802] if GodH430 will turnH7725[H8799] and repentH5162[H8738], and turn awayH7725[H8804] from his fierceH2740 angerH639, that we perishH6 notH8799?
[10]And GodH430 sawH7200[H8799] their worksH4639, that they turnedH7725[H8804] from their evilH7451 wayH1870; and GodH430 repentedH5162[H8735] of the evilH7451, that he had saidH1696[H8765] that he would doH6213[H8800] unto them; and he didH6213 it notH8804.
