- When the word reached the king of Nineveh, he arose from his throne, laid aside his robe from him, covered himself with sackcloth and sat on the ashes.
- He issued a proclamation and it said, "In Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles: Do not let man, beast, herd, or flock taste a thing. Do not let them eat or drink water.
- "But both man and beast must be covered with sackcloth; and let men call on God earnestly that each may turn from his wicked way and from the violence which is in his hands.
- "Who knows, God may turn and relent and withdraw His burning anger so that we will not perish."
- When God saw their deeds, that they turned from their wicked way, then God relented concerning the calamity which He had declared He would bring upon them. And He did not do it.

- 這信息傳到尼尼微王的耳中、他就下了寶座、脫下朝服、披上麻布、坐在灰中。
- 他又使人遍告尼尼微通城說、王和大臣有令、人不可嘗甚麼、牲畜、牛羊、不可喫草、也不可喝水。
- 人與牲畜都當披上麻布、人要切切求告 神．各人回頭離開所行的惡道、丟棄手中的強暴。
- 或者 神轉意後悔、不發烈怒、使我們不至滅亡、也未可知。
- 於是 神察看他們的行為、見他們離開惡道、他就後悔、不把所說的災禍降與他們了。
