Once again the LORD told Jonah
that long before we were born, prophets were saying powerful kingdoms would be struck by war, disaster, and disease.
Everyone is terrified when a lion roars— and ordinary people become prophets when the LORD God speaks.
One day the LORD told Jonah, the son of Amittai,
The LORD commanded the fish to vomit up Jonah on the shore. And it did.
to go to that great city of Nineveh and preach his message of doom.
