1 The LORD's word came to Jonah a second time:
1
Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah a second time:
2 "Get up and go to Nineveh, that great city, and declare against it the proclamation that I am commanding you."
2
“Go to the great city of Nineveh and proclaim to it the message I give you.”
3 And Jonah got up and went to Nineveh, according to the LORD's word. (Now Nineveh was indeed an enormous city, a three days' walk across.)
3
Jonah obeyed the word of the LORD and went to Nineveh. Now Nineveh was a very large city; it took three days to go through it.
4 Jonah started into the city, walking one day, and he cried out, "Just forty days more and Nineveh will be overthrown!"
4
Jonah began by going a day’s journey into the city, proclaiming, “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overthrown.”
