From that land he went to Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah,

So Sennacherib king of Assyria broke camp and withdrew. He returned to Nineveh and stayed there.

I am against you, said Jehovah of Hosts! I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions. I will destroy your prey from the earth, and the voice of your messengers will be heard no more.

The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it. After all, they repented at the preaching of Jonah. Yet someone greater than Jonah is here.

The men of Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment with this generation. They will condemn it for they repented at the preaching of Jonah and someone greater than Jonah is here now.
