Jonah’s Disobedience

1 Now the word of the Lord came to ^aJonah the son of Amittai, saying,

2 “Arise, go to ^aNineveh, that ^bgreat city, and cry out against it; for ^ctheir wickedness has come up before Me.”

3 But Jonah arose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord. He went down to ^aJoppa, and found a ship going to Tarshish; so he paid the fare, and went down into it, to go with them to ^bTarshish ^cfrom the presence of the Lord.

4 But ^athe Lord sent out a great wind on the sea, and there was a mighty tempest on the sea, so that the ship was about to be broken up.
