'Overtake' in the Bible

So, crying to the Lord, they said, Give ear to our prayer, O Lord, give ear, and do not let destruction overtake us because of this man's life; do not put on us the sin of taking life without cause: for you, O Lord, have done what seemed good to you.

And Jonah first of all went a day's journey into the town, and crying out said, In forty days destruction will overtake Nineveh.

Who may say that God will not be turned, changing his purpose and turning away from his burning wrath, so that destruction may not overtake us?
