Jonah 1:2-4

Revised Geneva Translation

² “Arise! Go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it. For their wickedness has come up before Me.”

³ But Jonah rose up to flee into Tarshish—from the presence of the LORD—and went down to Japho. And he found a ship going to Tarshish. So he paid its fare and went down into it, so that he might go with them to Tarshish, from the presence of the LORD.

⁴ But the LORD sent out a great wind into the sea; and there was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was about to be broken.
