Gud talade till Jona, Amittajs son. ”Ge dig av till Nineve, den stora staden, och varna människorna där. Jag har fått höra om det onda de gör.”
God spoke to Jonah, son of Amittai. “Go to Nineveh, the great city, and warn the people there. I have heard about the evil they are doing.”
Jona gav sig av, men han försökte fly från Gud. I Joppe hittade han ett skepp som skulle segla till Tarshish. Han betalade för resan och gick ombord för att följa med besättningen dit, bort från Gud.
Jonah set out, but he tried to flee from God. In Joppa he found a ship that was sailing to Tarshish. He paid for the journey and went aboard to travel there with the crew, away from God.
