Then the Lord spoke to Jonah again and said,
The Lord spoke to Jonah son of Amittai:
When a lion roars, people are frightened. When the Lord GOD speaks, a prophet must prophesy.
Then the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah out of its stomach onto the dry land.
“Go to that big city Nineveh, and say what I tell you.”
There were prophets long before you and I became prophets, Hananiah. They spoke against many countries and great kingdoms and always warned that war, hunger, and disease would come to them.
