Jonah 3:4-6

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁴ Jonah entered the city and walked for about a day. Then he said, “In forty days Nineveh will be destroyed.”

⁵ The people of Nineveh believed God. They decided to fast, and everyone, from the most important to the least important, dressed in sackcloth.

⁶ When the news reached the king of Nineveh, he got up from his throne, took off his robe, put on sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
