Jonah’s Disobedience

1 The word of the Lord came to ^(A)Jonah the son of Amittai saying,

³⁹ But He answered and said to them, “^(A)An evil and adulterous generation craves for a ^[a]sign; and yet no ^[b]sign will be given to it but the ^[c]sign of Jonah the prophet; ⁴⁰ for just as ^(B)Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the sea monster, so will ^(C)the Son of Man be ^(D)three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
