Jonah

A prophet runs from God's call to preach to Nineveh but learns about mercy when the city repents.

Chapter 1

KJV - Jonah 1:13

Nevertheless the men rowed hard to bring it to the land; but they could not: for the sea wrought, and was tempestuous against them.

However, the men worked hard to get the boat to shore, but they failed. The sea was rough and stormy, making it difficult for them.
