Matthew 12:37-40

Living Bible

³⁷ Your words now reflect your fate then: either you will be justified by them or you will be condemned.”

³⁸ One day some of the Jewish leaders, including some Pharisees, came to Jesus asking him to show them a miracle.

^39-40 But Jesus replied, “Only an evil, faithless nation would ask for further proof; and none will be given except what happened to Jonah the prophet! For as Jonah was in the great fish for three days and three nights, so I, the Messiah,^[a] shall be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
