Jon 3:6
  Interlinear
And the word (the news) reached the king of Nineveh. Then he rose from his throne. And he took off his robe. And he covered himself with sackcloth. Then he sat in ashes. [Ashes are a symbol of mourning, see Job 2:8; Jer. 6:26.]
Jon 3:7
  Interlinear
And he gave up a cry of lamentation (cried out, wailed) [as when one cries out in great distress, see Ex. 2:23]. And the king and his nobles proclaimed a decree in Nineveh, saying:

"No man, animal, cattle [large animals such as cows and horses], or small livestock (sheep, goats) shall eat anything. They shall not graze or drink.
