32_JON_03_01 And the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the second time, saying,
32_JON_03_02 Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, And preach unto it the preaching that I Bid thee.
32_JON_03_03 So Jonah arose, And went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the LORD. now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days' journey.
32_JON_03_04 And Jonah began to enter into the city A day's journey, And he cried, And said, yet forty days, And Nineveh shall be overthrown.
32_JON_03_05 So the people of Nineveh believed God, And proclaimed A fast, And put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.
32_JON_03_06 for word came unto the king of Nineveh, And he arose from his throne, And he laid his robe from him, And covered [ him] with sackcloth, And sat in ashes.
32_JON_03_07 And he caused [ it] to be proclaimed And published through Nineveh by the decree of the king And his nobles, saying, let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water:
32_JON_03_08 but let man And beast be covered with sackcloth, And cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, And from the violence that [ Is] in their hands.
32_JON_03_09 who can tell [ if] God will turn And repent, And turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?
32_JON_03_10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; And God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; And he did [ it] not.
