Jonah Flees From the LORD1The word of the LORD came to Jonah son of Amittai:
2“Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.”
3But Jonah ran away from the LORD and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the LORD . 4Then the LORD sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up.
