    The statement is: True.

    Explanation:

    The Old Testament of the Catholic Bible in Jonah 3-4 relates the story of Jonah returning to Nineveh by command of God (for the second time) to aware inhabitants of the upcoming destruction of the city in forty (40) days. In this case, Nineveh's king took the warning seriously. Ninevites prayed to God and turned from their reckless behavior which was seen good in God's eyes pushing Assyrians away and avoiding Nineveh's destruction.

This was after he had previously disobeyed God by attempting to flee to Tarshish in the book of Jonah chapter 1 and 2.
