"Nineveh" is a song by New Zealand singer-songwriter Brooke Ligertwood.

"Nineveh" was released on 4 February 2022, accompanied with its live music video.[4] "Nineveh" follows the release of "A Thousand Hallelujahs" which was the first single from her live album, Seven (2022).[5] Ligertwood shared the story behind the song, saying that Steven Furtick reached out to her in the spring of 2021 with the idea of writing a song called "Nineveh."[6] Ligertwood opined about the songwriting process for the song,[7] saying:

It is a rare and deep joy to be able to write a song that closely examines a narrative of scripture while simultaneously inviting the listener to allow the scripture to examine them. "Nineveh" is one such rarity and I feel honoured to have co-written it with a songwriter and thinker I immensely respect – it was a joy from beginning to end.
