Jonah 3:1-4

Expanded Bible

God Calls and Jonah Obeys

3 The ·Lord spoke his word [^Lword of the Lord came] to Jonah ·again [a second time] and said, ² “Get up, go to the great city Nineveh [1:2], and ·preach [cry out] to it what I tell you to say.”

³ So Jonah obeyed the Lord and got up and went to Nineveh. It was a very large city; just to walk ·across it [or through it all] took a person three days. ⁴ After Jonah had entered the city and walked for one day, he preached to the people, saying, “After forty days, Nineveh will be ·destroyed [overthrown]!”
