  11. Scriptures

  12. Jonah 1:1-3 1 Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,2“Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it; for their wickedness has come up before Me.” 3But Jonah arose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord. He went down to Joppa, and found a ship going to Tarshish; so he paid the fare, and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord.

  13. Jonah 1:4-5 4But the Lord sent out a great wind on the sea, and there was a mighty tempest on the sea, so that the ship was about to be broken up. 5Then the mariners were afraid; and every man cried out to his god, and threw the cargo that was in the ship into the sea, to lighten the load.But Jonah had gone down into the lowest parts of the ship, had lain down, and was fast asleep.

  14. Jonah 1:6-8 6So the captain came to him, and said to him, “What do you mean, sleeper? Arise, call on your God; perhaps your God will consider us, so that we may not perish.” 7And they said to one another, “Come, let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this trouble has come upon us.” So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah. 8Then they said to him, “Please tell us! For whose cause is this trouble upon us? What is your occupation? And where do you come from? What is your country? And of what people are you?”

  15. Jonah 1:9-11 9So he said to them, “I am a Hebrew; and I fear the Lord, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the dry land.” 10Then the men were exceedingly afraid, and said to him, “Why have you done this?” For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the Lord, because he had told them. 11Then they said to him, “What shall we do to you that the sea may be calm for us?”—for the sea was growing more tempestuous.

  16. Isaiah 5:20, 23 20Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness;Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!  23Who justify the wicked for a bribe,And take away justice from the righteous man!

  17. Isaiah 56:10 10 His watchmen are blind,They are all ignorant;They are all dumb dogs,They cannot bark;Sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.

  18. Jeremiah 8:11 11 For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of My people slightly,Saying, ‘Peace, peace!’When there is no peace

  19. Isaiah 58:1  Cry aloud, spare not;Lift up your voice like a trumpet;Tell My people their transgression,And the house of Jacob their sins.

  20. 1 Corinthians 14:8 8 For if the trumpet makes an uncertain sound, who will prepare for battle?

  21. Joel 3:9 9 Proclaim this among the nations:“Prepare for war!Wake up the mighty men,Let all the men of war draw near,Let them come up.

  22. 1 Thessalonians 5:6-7 6 Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober. 7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night.
