Jonah 3:1-5,10
The word of the Lord was addressed to Jonah: "Up!", he said, "Go to Nineveh, the great city, and preach to them as I told you to." Jonah set out and went to Nineveh in obedience to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was a city beyond compare: it took three days to cross it. Jonah went on into the city, making a day's journey. He preached in these words, "Only forty days more and Nineveh is going to be destroyed. " and the people of Nineveh believed in God; they proclaimed a fast and put on sackcloth, from the greatest to the least.
God, saw their efforts to renounce their evil behavior. And God relented: He did not inflict on them the disaster which He had threatened.
