Jon 3, 1-10

1 And the word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time, saying: 2 Rise, and go to Nineveh, the great city. And preach in it the preaching that I say to you. 3 And Jonah rose, and he went to Nineveh in accordance with the word of the Lord. And Nineveh was a great city of three days’ journey. 4 And Jonah began to enter into the city one day’s journey. And he cried out and said, “Forty days more and Nineveh shall be destroyed.” 5 And the men of Nineveh believed in God. And they proclaimed a fast, and they put on sackcloth, from the greatest all the way to the least. 6 And word reached the king of Nineveh. And he rose from his throne, and he threw off his robe from himself and was clothed in sackcloth, and he sat in ashes. 7 And he cried out and spoke: “In Nineveh, from the mouth of the king and of his princes, let it be said: Men and beasts and oxen and sheep may not taste anything. Neither shall they feed or drink water. 8 And let men and beasts be covered with sackcloth, and let them cry out to the Lord with strength, and may man be converted from his evil way, and from the iniquity that is in their hands. 9 Who knows if God may turn and forgive, and may turn away from his furious wrath, so that we might not perish?” 10 And God saw their works, that they had been converted from their evil way. And God took pity on them, concerning the harm that he had said he would do to them, and he did not do it.

Verš 9

Who knows if God may turn and forgive, and may turn away from his furious wrath, so that we might not perish?”

Joe 2:14 - Who knows if he might convert and forgive, and bequeath a blessing after him, a sacrifice and a libation to the Lord your God?

Verš 5

And the men of Nineveh believed in God. And they proclaimed a fast, and they put on sackcloth, from the greatest all the way to the least.

Lk 11:32 - The men of Nineveh will rise up, at the judgment, with this generation, and they will condemn it. For at the preaching of Jonah, they repented. And behold, more than Jonah is here.

Jon 3,3 - Ninive bolo veľké "pred Bohom", lebo Bohu záležalo, aby sa mesto obrátilo. – Kto chcel poprechodiť všetky ulice mesta, potreboval na to tri dni.
