Jonah
4
4:1 But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry.
4:2 And he prayed unto the LORD, and said,
I pray thee, O LORD, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country?
Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou art a gracious God,
and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.
4:3 Therefore now, O LORD, take, I beseech thee, my life from me;
for it is better for me to die than to live.
4:4 Then said the LORD,
Doest thou well to be angry?
4:5 So Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city,
and there made him a booth, and sat under it in the shadow,
till he might see what would become of the city.
4:6 And the LORD God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah,
that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him from his grief.
So Jonah was exceeding glad of the gourd.
4:7 But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day,
and it smote the gourd that it withered.
4:8 And it came to pass,
when the sun did arise, that God prepared a vehement east wind;
and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he fainted,
and wished in himself to die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.
4:9 And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd?
And he said, I do well to be angry, even unto death.
4:10 Then said the LORD,
Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for the which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow;
which came up in a night, and perished in a night:
4:11 And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city,
wherein are more then sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern
between their right hand and their left hand; and also much cattle?
