Jonah 3:2-4

American Standard Version

² Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and ^[a]preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee. ³ So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of Jehovah. Now Nineveh was ^[b]an exceeding great city, of three days’ journey. ⁴ And Jonah began to enter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.
