Jonah 3:5 in Context — Jonah 3
3 Et Jonas se leva, et alla à Ninive, selon la parole de l’Éternel. Or Ninive était une très grande ville, de trois jours de marche.
4 Jonas fit d’abord dans la ville une journée de marche; il criait et disait: Encore quarante jours, et Ninive est détruite!
5 Les gens de Ninive crurent à Dieu, ils publièrent un jeûne, et se revêtirent de sacs, depuis les plus grands jusqu’aux plus petits.
6 La chose parvint au roi de Ninive; il se leva de son trône, ôta son manteau, se couvrit d’un sac, et s’assit sur la cendre.
7 Et il fit faire dans Ninive cette publication, par ordre du roi et de ses grands; Que les hommes et les bêtes, les bœufs et les brebis, ne goûtent de rien, ne paissent point, et ne boivent point d’eau!
