Jonah 1:2-4
English Standard Version
2 “Arise, go to (A)Nineveh, that (B)great city, and call out against it, (C)for their evil[a] has come up before me.” 3 But Jonah (D)rose to flee to (E)Tarshish from the presence of the Lord. He went down to (F)Joppa and found a ship going to (G)Tarshish. So he paid the fare and went down into it, to go with them to (H)Tarshish, (I)away from the presence of the Lord.
4 But (J)the Lord hurled a great wind upon the sea, and there was a mighty tempest on the sea, so that the ship threatened (K)to break up.
