Mwenyezi Mlungu achigomba na Jona kano ya phiri achiamba, 
“Uka uphiye hadi mudzi mkpwulu wa Ninawi ukaambire garatu maneno nrigokuambira.” 
Ndipho Jona achiphiya Ninawi kama arivyolagizwa ni Mwenyezi Mlungu. Mudzi hinyo kala ni mkpwulu sana, mana kala inahala siku tahu kuutikanya. 
Chisha Jona achiinjira Ninawi na achiphiya charo cha siku mwenga, achikota kululu kuambira atu a Ninawi kukala, “Zikasala siku mirongo mine tu, mudzi wa Ninawi ubanangbwe-banangbwe!” 
Atu a Ninawi ariphosikira habari hiyo, achiamini higo maneno ga Mlungu, achitangaza mfungo na achivwala magunia kula akulu hadi adide.
