Jonah 3 · Grade 2

A Second Chance

Name Date

Read the Story

Yahweh spoke to Jonah a second time. He said, go to Nineveh. This time Jonah went. Nineveh was a very big city.

Jonah walked through the city and gave God's warning. The people believed God. They put on sackcloth to show they were sorry. Even the king took off his robe and sat in ashes. The king told everyone to stop doing evil. God saw that they turned from their evil way. God did not send the trouble.

Memory Verse

“God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way. God relented of the disaster which he said he would do to them, and he didn’t do it.”

Jonah 3:10 (WEB)
