Jonah 3:1-4

1 The word of ADONAI came to Yonah a second time:

2 "Set out for the great city of Ninveh, and proclaim to it the message I will give you."

3 So Yonah set out and went to Ninveh, as ADONAI had said. Now Ninveh was such a large city that it took three days just to cross it.

4 Yonah began his entry into the city and had finished only his first day of proclaiming, 'In forty days Ninveh will be overthrown,'
