3. Jonah immediately went to Nineveh as the Lord told him. Nineveh was a very large city. It took three days to walk through it.
4. Jonah entered the city and walked for about a day. Then he said, “In forty days Nineveh will be destroyed.”
5. The people of Nineveh believed God. They decided to fast, and everyone, from the most important to the least important, dressed in sackcloth.
