Jonah 1:2

¹ Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah son of Amittai, saying,

“Get up! Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before Me.”

³ Jonah, however, got up to flee to Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD. He went down to Joppa and found a ship bound for Tarshish. So he paid the fare and went aboard to sail for Tarshish, away from the presence of the LORD.

⁴ Then the LORD hurled a great wind upon the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship was in danger of breaking apart.
