Jonah 3:6-8
Legacy Standard Bible

6 Then the word reached the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, laid aside his mantle from him, (A)covered himself with sackcloth, and sat on the [a]ashes. 7 And he (B)cried out and said,

“In Nineveh by the [b]decree of the king and his nobles[c]: Do not let man, [d]animal, herd, or flock taste a thing. Do not let them eat, and do not let them drink water.

8 But both man and [e]animal must be covered with sackcloth; and let [f]men (C)call on God with their strength that each may (D)turn from his evil way and from the violence which is in [g]his hands.
