Library > Bible versions > NIV > Jonah > 3 > Jonah   3 : 1 Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah a second time: 3 : 2 Go to the great city of Nineveh and proclaim to it the message I give you. 3 : 3 Jonah obeyed the word of the LORD and went to Nineveh. Now Nineveh was a very important city--a visit required three days. 3 : 4 On the first day, Jonah started into the city. He proclaimed: "Forty more days and Nineveh will be overturned." 3 : 5 The Ninevites believed God. They declared a fast, and all of them, from the greatest to the least, put on sackcloth. 3 : 6 When the news reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, took off his royal robes, covered himself with sackcloth and sat down in the dust. 3 : 7 Then he issued a proclamation in Nineveh: "By the decree of the king and his nobles: Do not let any man or beast, herd or flock, taste anything; do not let them eat or drink. 3 : 8 But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth. Let everyone call urgently on God. Let them give up their evil ways and their violence. 3 : 9 Who knows? God may yet relent and with compassion turn from his fierce anger so that we will not perish." 3 : 10 When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he had compassion and did not bring upon them the destruction he had threatened.
