Jonah 3

1 And the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the second time, saying, KJVSD — Jonah 3:1

2 Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.KJVSD — Jonah 3:2

3 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. KJVSD — Jonah 3:3

4 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. KJVSD — Jonah 3:4

5 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.KJVSD — Jonah 3:5

6 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. KJVSD — Jonah 3:6

7 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: KJVSD — Jonah 3:7

8 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. KJVSD — Jonah 3:8

9 Who can tell [if] God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?KJVSD — Jonah 3:9

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.KJVSD — Jonah 3:10
