But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands.
Todos deben vestirse de cilicio y clamar a Dios con todas sus fuerzas. Cada persona tiene que apartarse de sus malas decisiones y dejar de hacer las cosas dañinas que está haciendo.
Todos deben arrepentirse genuinamente ante Dios, cambiando tanto su actitud como sus acciones.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the biblical narrative of the Book of Jonah, set in the 8th century BC, the prophet Jonah is sent by God to warn the Assyrian city of Nineveh about its destruction due to widespread wickedness and violence. The king of Nineveh responds by declaring a fast and ordering everyone, including animals, to wear sackcloth as a dramatic symbol of repentance and a plea for mercy in ancient Near Eastern culture. This act highlights the seriousness of turning from evil, as sackcloth was a common expression of mourning and humility before God.
