And should I not have concern for the great city of Nineveh, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot tell their right hand from their left— and also many animals?”

And shouldn’t I show concern for the great city of Nineveh? It has more than 120,000 people. They can’t tell right from wrong. Nineveh also has a lot of animals.”

And should not I pity Nineveh, that great city, in which there are more than 120,000 persons who do not know their right hand from their left, and also much cattle?”

But Nineveh has more than 120,000 people living in spiritual darkness, not to mention all the animals. Shouldn’t I feel sorry for such a great city?”

So may I not care about the great city of Nineveh, which has more than a hundred twenty thousand people who cannot distinguish between their right and their left, as well as many animals?”

“起来！到尼尼微大城去，向那城呼喊，因为他们的恶行已经上达我的面前。”

难道你不也该怜悯与你同做奴仆的，像我怜悯了你一样吗？’

你的公义如高大的群山，你的公正如巨大的深渊。耶和华啊，你使人和牲畜都得救助！

“大儿子发怒，不肯进去，他父亲就出来劝他。他回答父亲，说：‘你看，我服事你这么多年，从来没有违背过你的命令，可是你从来没有给过我一只小山羊，好让我与朋友们一同庆祝。而你这个儿子，这个与妓女们一起吞尽了你财产的，他一来了，你就为他宰杀了养肥的牛犊！’“父亲对他说：‘孩子啊，你一直与我在一起，我的一切都是你的。现在，我们应该庆祝、欢喜，因为你这个弟弟是死而复生、失而复得的。’”

神看到他们所行的——从邪恶的道路上转回了，神就施怜悯，没有降下原先所说的要降在他们身上的灾祸。这让约拿极其不高兴，于是他就恼火，

“起来！到尼尼微大城去，向那城宣告我告诉你的信息！”约拿照着耶和华的话就起身，到尼尼微去。尼尼微是一座超级大城，走遍它需要三天的路程。

所有这些都仰望你按时赐给它们食物。你赐给它们，它们就收取；你张开手，它们就饱享美食。

你使青草为牲畜长出来，又使蔬菜长出来供人需用，好使人能从地里得食物。

一切的眼目都仰望你，你按时赐给他们食物；你张开手，使一切有生命的都意愿满足。

耶和华有恩惠、有怜悯，不轻易发怒，并大有慈爱。耶和华善待万有，他的怜悯临到他所造的一切。

耶和华说：“来吧，让我们彼此理论；你们的罪虽像朱红，必洁白如雪；虽赤如丹红，必白如羊毛。
