+  <chapter no='1'>
+    <verse no='1'>Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai,  saying,</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it;  for their wickedness is come up before me.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of  the LORD, and went down to Joppa; and he found a ship going to  Tarshish: so he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go  with them unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>But the LORD sent out a great wind into the sea, and there  was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was like to be  broken.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>Then the mariners were afraid, and cried every man unto his  god, and cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to  lighten it of them. But Jonah was gone down into the sides of the ship;  and he lay, and was fast asleep.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>So the shipmaster came to him, and said unto him, What  meanest thou, O sleeper? arise, call upon thy God, if so be that God  will think upon us, that we perish not.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>And they said every one to his fellow, Come, and let us cast  lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is upon us. So they  cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonah.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>Then said they unto him, Tell us, we pray thee, for whose  cause this evil is upon us; What is thine occupation? and whence comest  thou? what is thy country? and of what people art thou?</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>And he said unto them, I am an Hebrew; and I fear the LORD,  the God of heaven, which hath made the sea and the dry land.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said unto him. Why  hast thou done this? For the men knew that he fled from the presence of  the LORD, because he had told them.</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>Then said they unto him, What shall we do unto thee, that  the sea may be calm unto us? for the sea wrought, and was tempestuous.</verse>
+    <verse no='12'>And he said unto them, Take me up, and cast me forth into  the sea; so shall the sea be calm unto you: for I know that for my sake  this great tempest is upon you.</verse>
+    <verse no='13'>Nevertheless the men rowed hard to bring it to the land; but  they could not: for the sea wrought, and was tempestuous against them.</verse>
+    <verse no='14'>Wherefore they cried unto the LORD, and said, We beseech  thee, O LORD, we beseech thee, let us not perish for this man's life,  and lay not upon us innocent blood: for thou, O LORD, hast done as it  pleased thee.</verse>
+    <verse no='15'>So they look up Jonah, and cast him forth into the sea: and  the sea ceased from her raging.</verse>
+    <verse no='16'>Then the men feared the LORD exceedingly, and offered a  sacrifice unto the LORD, and made vows.</verse>
+    <verse no='17'>Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah.  And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='2'>
+    <verse no='1'>Then Jonah prayed unto the LORD his God out of the fish's  belly,</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the  LORD, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou  heardest my voice.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>For thou hadst cast me into the deep, in the midst of the  seas; and the floods compassed me about: all thy billows and thy waves  passed over me.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look  again toward thy holy temple.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth  closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with  her bars was about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from  corruption, O LORD my God.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my  prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of  thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the  LORD.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>And the LORD spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah  upon the dry land.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='3'>
+    <verse no='1'>And the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the second time,  saying,</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it  the preaching that I bid thee.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word  of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days'  journey.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and  he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a  fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least  of them.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from  his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with  sackcloth, and sat in ashes.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through  Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither  man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor  drink water:</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry  mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and  from the violence that is in their hands.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from  his fierce anger, that we perish not?</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil  way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do  unto them; and he did it not.</verse>
+  </chapter>
+  <chapter no='4'>
+    <verse no='1'>But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry.</verse>
+    <verse no='2'>And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O LORD,  was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled  before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and  merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of  the evil.</verse>
+    <verse no='3'>Therefore now, O LORD, take, I beseech thee, my life from  me; for it is better for me to die than to live.</verse>
+    <verse no='4'>Then said the LORD, Doest thou well to be angry?</verse>
+    <verse no='5'>So Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of  the city, and there made him a booth, and sat under it in the shadow,  till he might see what would become of the city.</verse>
+    <verse no='6'>And the LORD God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up  over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him  from his grief. So Jonah was exceeding glad of the gourd.</verse>
+    <verse no='7'>But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day,  and it smote the gourd that it withered.</verse>
+    <verse no='8'>And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God  prepared a vehement east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah,  that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, It is better  for me to die than to live.</verse>
+    <verse no='9'>And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the  gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, even unto death.</verse>
+    <verse no='10'>Then said the LORD, Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for the  which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow; which came up in  a night, and perished in a night:</verse>
+    <verse no='11'>And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are  more then sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their  right hand and their left hand; and also much cattle?</verse>
