Jonah 1:3

But Jonah ran away to Tarshish to escape from the presence of the Lord [and his duty as His prophet]. He went down to ^[c]Joppa and found a ship going to ^[d]Tarshish [the most remote of the Phoenician trading cities]. So he paid the fare and went down into the ship to go with them to Tarshish away from the presence of the Lord.
