“Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee. ”
“"Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach to it the message that I give you."”
“Arise, and go to Ninive, the great city: and preach in it the preaching that I bid thee.”
“Up! go to Nineveh, that great town, and give it the word which I have given you.”
“Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.”
The People of Nineveh Respond to Jonah’s Warning The LORD’s message came to Jonah a second time,
“Go immediately to Nineveh, that large city, and proclaim to it the message that I tell you.”
So Jonah went immediately to Nineveh, in keeping with the LORD’s message.(Now Nineveh was an enormous city– it required three days to walk through it!)
When Jonah began to enter the city one day’s walk, he announced,“At the end of forty days, Nineveh will be overthrown!”
The people of Nineveh believed in God, and they declared a fast and put on sackcloth, from the greatest to the least of them.
