Jonah and the whale is a well known story about running from a task and being given a second chance. Told to warn the city of Nineveh, Jonah instead boards a vessel going the other way. A great storm rises, and the sailors throw him overboard to calm it. A huge whale swallows him, and he spends three days in its belly before it releases him. He delivers the warning, the city chooses to repent, and the story turns on mercy. This word puzzle gathers eleven of them.
