Jonah 3:8-10

8 but let man and ^abeast be covered with sackcloth, and let them call out mightily to God. ^bLet everyone turn from his evil way and from ^cthe violence that is in his hands. 9 ^dWho knows? God may turn and relent ^eand turn from his fierce anger, so that we may not perish.”

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