Jonah 1:3

Jonah Disobeys Yahweh

² “Arise, go to Nineveh the great city and cry against it, for their wickedness has come up before Me.” ³ But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord. So he went down to Joppa, found a ship which was going to Tarshish, paid the fare and went down into it to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord. ⁴ The Lord hurled a great wind on the sea and there was a great storm on the sea so that the ship was about to break up.
