Jonah 3:6-7
6When the word reached the king of Nineveh, he arose from his throne, laid aside his robe from him, 1covered himself with sackcloth and sat on the 2ashes.
7He issued a 3proclamation and it said, “In Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles: Do not let man, beast, herd, or flock taste a thing. Do not let them eat or drink water.
