38 ¶ Then answered certain of the Scribes and of the Pharisees, saying, Master, we would see a sign of thee.[13]ⓜ

39 But he answered and said to them, An evil and [14]adulterous generation seeketh a sign, but no sign shall be given unto it, save that sign of the Prophet Jonah.

40 ⓝFor as Jonah was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly: so shall the son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
