1. And the word of יהוה came to Yonah son of Amittai, saying,
2. “Arise, go to Ninewĕh, the great city, and cry out against it, for their evils have come up before Me.”
3. But Yonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of יהוה, and went down to Yapho, and found a ship going to Tarshish. And he paid the fare, and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of יהוה.
