Jonah 3:8-10

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁸ Every person and animal must put on sackcloth. Cry loudly to God for help. Turn from your wicked ways and your acts of violence. ⁹ Who knows? God may reconsider his plans and turn from his burning anger so that we won’t die.”

¹⁰ God saw what they did. He saw that they turned from their wicked ways. So God reconsidered his threat to destroy them, and he didn’t do it.
