39 But He answered and said to them, ^a“An evil and adulterous generation craves for a ^{▼▼ I.e. attesting miracle}sign; and yet no ^{▼▼ I.e. attesting miracle}sign will be given to it but the ^{▼▼ I.e. attesting miracle}sign of Jonah the prophet; 40 for just as ^e Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the sea monster, so will ^fthe Son of Man be ^gthree days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 41 ^h“The men of Nineveh will stand up with this generation at the judgment, and will condemn it because ⁱthey repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, ^jsomething greater than Jonah is here.
