2 Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God out of the fish’s belly, 2 And said,
aI cried ||by reason of mine affliction unto the Lord, and ahe heard me;
Out of the belly of ||hell cried I, and bthou heardest my voice.
3 For cthou hadst cast me into the deep, in the †midst of the seas;
And the floods compassed me about:
dAll thy billows and thy waves passed over me.
4 eThen I said, I am cast out of thy sight;
Yet fI will look again fgtoward thy holy temple.
5 The hwaters icompassed me about, keven to the soul:
The depth closed me round about,
The weeds were wrapped habout my head.
6 I went down to the †lbottoms of the mountains;
The earth with mher bars was mmabout me for ever:
Yet hast thou brought up nmy life nofrom ||corruption, O Lord my God.
7 When pmy soul fainted within me I remembered the Lord:
And qmy prayer came in unto thee, qinto rthine holy temple.
8 sThey that observe lying tvanities forsake utheir own mercy.
9 But vI will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving;
vwI will pay that that I have vowed.
xSalvation is of the Lord.
10 And the Lord spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.
3 And the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the second time, saying, 2 Arise, go unto aNineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee. 3 So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now aNineveh was an †exceeding great city of three days’ journey. 4 And Jonah began to enter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and bNineveh shall be overthrown. 5 So cthe people of Nineveh believed God, and dproclaimed a fast, and eput on sackcloth, ffrom the greatest of them even to the least of them. 6 For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and ghe arose from his throne, and he laid hhis robe from him, and eicovered him with sackcloth, and ijsat in ashes. 7 And he kcaused it to be proclaimed and †published through Nineveh by lthe decree of the king and his †nobles, saying, Let neither man nor mbeast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water: 8 But let man and beast ebe covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, nlet them turn every one from his evil way, and from othe violence that is in their hands. 9 pqWho can tell if God will turn qand repent, and rturn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not? 10 And God saw their works, that nsthey turned from their evil way; and stGod repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.
4 But ait displeased Jonah exceedingly, and bhe was very angry. 2 And he prayed unto the Lord, and said, I pray thee, O Lord, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore cI fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou art da gracious God, and demerciful, dslow to anger, and of great kindness, dand repentest thee of the evil. 3 Therefore now, fO Lord, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for git is better for me to die than to live. 4 Then said the Lord, ||Doest thou well to be angry? 5 So Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made him ha booth, and sat under it in the shadow, till he might see what would become of the city. 6 And the iLord God jprepared a ||†gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him from his agrief. So Jonah †was exceeding glad of the gourd. 7 But God jprepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd that it withered. 8 And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God jprepared a ||vehement keast wind; and the sun lbeat upon the head of Jonah, that mhe fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, gIt is better for me to die than to live. 9 And God said to Jonah, ||Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, ||I do well to be angry, neven unto death. 10 Then said the Lord, Thou hast ||had pity on the gourd, for the which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow; which †came up in a night, and perished in a night: 11 And should not I spare oNineveh, that great city, wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons pthat cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; qand also much cattle?
†Micah
1 *The word of the Lord that came to aMicah bthe Morasthite cin the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he saw dconcerning eSamaria and Jerusalem.
gHearken, O earth, and †all that therein is:
And hlet the Lord God be witness against you,
iThe Lord from khis holy temple.
3 lFor, behold, the Lord cometh forth out of lmhis place,
And will come down, and notread nupon the high places of the earth.
4 And pthe mountains shall be molten under him,
And the valleys shall be cleft,
qAs wax before the fire,
And as the waters that are rpoured down †a steep place.
5 For rrthe transgression of Jacob is all this,
And for rrthe sins of the house of Israel.
What is the transgression of Jacob? is it not eSamaria?
And what are sthe high places of Judah? are they not Jerusalem?
6 Therefore I will make eSamaria tas an heap of the field,
And as plantings of a vineyard:
And I will rpour down the stones thereof uinto the valley,
And vI will discover the foundations thereof.
7 And all the graven images thereof wshall be beaten to pieces,
And all xthe hires thereof shall be burned with the fire,
And all the idols thereof will I lay desolate:
For she gathered it xof the hire of an harlot,
And they shall return to the hire of an harlot.
8 yTherefore I will zwail and howl,
I will go astripped and bnaked:
I will make a wailing like cdthe dragons,
9 For ||fher wound is incurable;
For it is come unto Judah;
gHe is come unto the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
10 hDeclare ye it not at iGath, weep ye not at all:
In the house of ||kAphrah lroll thyself in the dust.
11 Pass ye away, ||thou †inhabitant of Saphir, nhaving thy shame naked:
The †inhabitant of ||Zaanan came not forth in the mourning of ||Beth-ezel;
He shall receive of you his standing.
12 For the †inhabitant of pMaroth ||qwaited carefully for good:
But revil came down from the Lord unto the gate of Jerusalem.
13 O thou †inhabitant of sLachish, bind the chariot to tthe swift beast:
She is the beginning of the sin to the daughter of Zion:
For uthe transgressions of Israel were found in thee.
14 Therefore shalt thou give vpresents ||to wMoresheth-gath:
The houses of ||xAchzib shall be a lie to the kings of Israel.
15 xxYet will I bring an heir unto thee, O †inhabitant of xMareshah:
||He shall come unto yAdullam the glory of Israel.
16 zMake thee bald, and apoll thee for bthy delicate children;
zEnlarge thy baldness cas the eagle;
For dthey are gone into captivity from thee.
