Jon 3:5-10, Mat 11:20-24, 12:41-42, Luk 11:30-32, Act 27:28 | ESV | STEP | And the people of Nineveh believed God . They called for a fast and put on sackcloth , from the greatest of them to the least of them.

6 The word reached ^{▼▼Or had reached} the king of Nineveh, and ^ehe arose from his throne, removed his robe, covered himself with sackcloth, ^fand sat in ashes. 7 And he issued a proclamation and published through Nineveh, ^g“By the decree of the king and his nobles: Let neither man nor ^hbeast, herd nor flock, taste anything. Let them not feed or drink water, 8 but let man and ⁱbeast be covered with sackcloth, and let them call out mightily to God. ^jLet everyone turn from his evil way and from ^kthe violence that is in his hands. 9 ^lWho knows? God may turn and relent ^mand turn from his fierce anger, so that we may not perish.”

10 When God saw what they did, ⁿhow they turned from their evil way, ^oGod relented of the disaster that he had said he would do to them, and he did not do it.

Matthew 11:20-24

Woe to Unrepentant Cities

20 ^pThen he began to denounce the cities where most of his mighty works had been done, because they did not repent. 21 ^q“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in ^rTyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. 22 ^sBut I tell you, it will be more bearable on ^tthe day of judgment for ^uTyre and Sidon than for you. 23 And you, ^vCapernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? You will be brought down to ^wHades. For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. 24 ^xBut I tell you that ^yit will be more tolerable on ^zthe day of judgment for the land of Sodom than for you.”

Matthew 12:41-42

41 ^aaThe men of Nineveh will rise up at the judgment with this generation and ^abcondemn it, for ^acthey repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, ^adsomething greater than Jonah is here. 42 ^aeThe queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, ^afsomething greater than Solomon is here.

Luke 11:30-32

30 For as ^agJonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh, so will the Son of Man be to this generation. 31 ^ahThe queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with the men of this generation and ^aicondemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, ^ajsomething greater than Solomon is here. 32 ^akThe men of Nineveh will rise up at the judgment with this generation and ^alcondemn it, for ^amthey repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, ^ansomething greater than Jonah is here.
