Jonah 1:1-3

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

1 Now the word of the Lord came to Jonas the son of Amathi, saying:

² Arise, and go to Ninive the great city, and preach in it: for the wickedness thereof is come up before me.

³ And Jonas rose up to flee into Tharsis from the face of the Lord, and he went down to Joppe, and found a ship going to Tharsis: and he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with them to Tharsis from the face of the Lord.
