Matthew 12:38-40

Holman Christian Standard Bible

The Sign of Jonah

³⁸ Then some of the scribes and Pharisees said to Him, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from You.”^(A)

³⁹ But He answered them,^(B) “An evil and adulterous generation demands a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.^{(C) 40} For as Jonah was in the belly of the huge fish three days and three nights,^(D) so the Son of Man will be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
