Matthew 12:38-42

38 Then some of the scribes and Pharisees said to him, `Teacher, we want you to show us a sign.'

39 But Jesus answered them, `The people today are bad. They have gone away from God. They want a sign. No sign will be given them but the sign of the prophet Jonah.

40 Jonah was inside the big sea animal for three days and three nights. So the Son of Man will be in the ground for three days and three nights.

41 When people are judged, the men of the city of Nineveh will stand up and speak against the people of today. The people of Nineveh stopped their wrong ways when Jonah told them God's word. And the one who is here is greater than Jonah.

42 When people are judged, the Queen of the South will stand up and speak against the people of today. She came a long way to hear the wise talk of Solomon. And the one who is here is greater than Solomon.'
