Jonah 3:1-5 - The People Of Nineveh Repent At Jonah's Proclamation
1 Then came the word of Yahweh unto Jonah, the second time, saying: 2 Arise, get thee unto Nineveh, the great city, - and cry against it the cry that I am bidding thee. 3 So Jonah arose, and went his way unto Nineveh, according to the word of Yahweh, - Nineveh, being a city great before God, of three days' journey. 4 So Jonah began to enter into the city, one day's journey, - and he cried out and said - Yet forty days, and, Nineveh, is to be overthrown! 5 And the people of Nineveh believed in God, - and proclaimed a fast, and clothed themselves in sackcloth, from the greatest of them, even unto the least of them.
