Jonah 3:6-9

6And the wordH1697 reachedH5060 the kingH4428 of NinevehH5210, and he aroseH6965 from his throneH3678, and laid his robe from him, and coveredH3680 himself with sackclothH8242, and satH3427 in ashesH665.

7And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through NinevehH5210 by the decree of the kingH4428 and his nobles, sayingH559, Let neither manH120 nor beast, herdH1241 nor flockH6629, tasteH2938 anythingH3972: let them not feedH7462, nor drinkH8354 waterH4325;

8and let manH376 and beast be coveredH3680 with sackclothH8242, and cry mightily unto 1GodH430; and let them turnH7725 every oneH376 from his evilH7451 wayH1870, and from the violenceH2555 that is in their handsH3709.

9Who knoweth but that 2GodH430 will turnH7725 and repent, and will turnH7725 awayH7725 from his fierce angerH639, that we perishH6 not?
