Giona 3	Jonah 3
Giona 3:1 E la parola dell’Eterno fu rivolta a Giona per la seconda volta, in questi termini:	Jonah 3:1 And the word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time, saying,
Giona 3:2 "Lèvati, va’ a Ninive, la gran città e proclamale quello che io ti comando".	Jonah 3:2 Up! go to Nineveh, that great town, and give it the word which I have given you.
Giona 3:3 E Giona si levò, e andò a Ninive, secondo la parola dell’Eterno. Or Ninive era una grande città dinanzi a Dio, di tre giornate di cammino.	Jonah 3:3 So Jonah got up and went to Nineveh as the Lord had said. Now Nineveh was a very great town, three days' journey from end to end.
Giona 3:4 E Giona cominciò a inoltrarsi nella città per il cammino di una giornata, e predicava e diceva: "Ancora quaranta giorni, e Ninive sarà distrutta!"	Jonah 3:4 And Jonah first of all went a day's journey into the town, and crying out said, In forty days destruction will overtake Nineveh.
Giona 3:5 E i Niniviti credettero a Dio, bandirono un digiuno, e si vestirono di sacchi, dai più grandi ai più piccoli.	Jonah 3:5 And the people of Nineveh had belief in God; and a time was fixed for going without food, and they put on haircloth, from the greatest to the least.
Giona 3:6 Ed essendo la notizia giunta al re di Ninive, questi s’alzò dal trono, si tolse di dosso il manto, si coprì d’un sacco, e si mise a sedere sulla cenere.	Jonah 3:6 And the word came to the king of Nineveh, and he got up from his seat of authority, and took off his robe, and covering himself with haircloth, took his seat in the dust.
Giona 3:7 E per decreto del re e dei suoi grandi, fu pubblicato in Ninive un bando di questo tenore: "Uomini e bestie, armenti e greggi, non assaggino nulla; non si pascano e non bevano acqua;	Jonah 3:7 And he had it given out in Nineveh, By the order of the king and his great men, no man or beast, herd or flock, is to have a taste of anything; let them have no food or water:
Giona 3:8 uomini e bestie si coprano di sacchi e gridino con forza a Dio; e ognuno si converta dalla sua via malvagia, e dalla violenza perpetrata dalle sue mani.	Jonah 3:8 And let man and beast be covered with haircloth, and let them make strong prayers to God: and let everyone be turned from his evil way and the violent acts of their hands.
Giona 3:9 Chi sa che Dio non si volga, non si penta, e non acqueti l’ardente sua ira, sì che noi non periamo".	Jonah 3:9 Who may say that God will not be turned, changing his purpose and turning away from his burning wrath, so that destruction may not overtake us?
Giona 3:10 E Dio vide quel che facevano, vide che si convertivano dalla loro via malvagia, e si pentì del male che avea parlato di far loro: e non lo fece.	Jonah 3:10 And God saw what they did, how they were turned from their evil way; and God's purpose was changed as to the evil which he said he would do to them, and he did it not.
