3:1	And the word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time, ho bua:
3:2	Rise, and go to Nineveh, the great city. And preach in it the preaching that I say to you.
3:3	And Jonah rose, and he went to Nineveh in accordance with the word of the Lord. And Nineveh was a great city of three days’ journey.
3:4	And Jonah began to enter into the city one day’s journey. Mme a hoeletsa a re, “Forty days more and Nineveh shall be destroyed.”
3:5	And the men of Nineveh believed in God. And they proclaimed a fast, and they put on sackcloth, from the greatest all the way to the least.
3:6	And word reached the king of Nineveh. And he rose from his throne, mme a lahla seaparo sa hae, a apara lesela la mokotla, mme a dula moloreng.

11:29	Joale, as the crowds were quickly gathering, he began to say: “This generation is a wicked generation: it seeks a sign. But no sign will be given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.
11:30	For just as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so also will the Son of man be to this generation.
11:31	The queen of the South will rise up, at the judgment, with the men of this generation, and she will condemn them. For she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon. Mme bonang, more than Solomon is here.
11:32	The men of Nineveh will rise up, at the judgment, with this generation, and they will condemn it. For at the preaching of Jonah, they repented. Mme bonang, more than Jonah is here.
