ગુજરાતીયૂના ૩:૭
તેણે તથા તેના દરબારીઓએ સંદશો મોકલ્યા; નિનવેમાં માણસો, ગાયભેંસ અને ટોળાંઓ કશું ચાખવું નહિ, તેઓ ખાય નહિ અને પાણી પણ પીવે નહિ.
हिन्दीयोना ३:७
राजा ने अपने प्रधानों से सम्मति लेकर नीनवे में इस आज्ञा का ढिंढोरा पिटवाया, “क्या मनुष्य, क्या गाय-बैल, क्या भेड़-बकरी, या और पशु, कोई कुछ भी न खाएँ; वे न खाएँ और न पानी पीएँ।

In context

5The people of Nineveh believed God; and they proclaimed a fast and put on sackcloth, from their greatest even to their least.

6The news reached the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, took off his royal robe, covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.

7He made a proclamation and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, “Let neither man nor animal, herd nor flock, taste anything; let them not feed, nor drink water;

8but let them be covered with sackcloth, both man and animal, and let them cry mightily to God. Yes, let them turn everyone from his evil way and from the violence that is in his hands.

9Who knows whether God will not turn and relent, and turn away from his fierce anger, so that we might not perish?”
