Jonah 3:8
“Recall that Daniel, passionate man though he was, spent many days fasting.

— Jonah 3:8 —
9Who knows if God will repent, and turn from his fierce anger, and so we shall not perish?
10And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil ways; and God repented of the evil which he had said he would do to them; and he did it not.
