But is the Prophet become a Spoiler? the Dove a Ʋultur? Shew some reason of thy displeasure, lay forth the grounds of thy sad wishes against Nineveh; Hath Jonah any motives to prompt him on to such dismall conclusions? Yes, he was a Prophet, and he saw not the event of his Prophesie; God had punished him for flying to Tharsis, and now he doth shame him for repairing to Nineveh. God doth employ a Prophet, and he will not justifie his Prophet. For, saith Jonah, I have said, Yet forty dayes and Nineveh shall be destroyed; the forty dayes are even expiring, and Nineveh yet standeth. |
