BibleText:

1 But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry.
2 And he prayed to the LORD [Yahweh], and said, I pray you, O LORD [Yahweh], [was] not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before to Tarshish: for I knew that you [are] a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repent you of the evil.
3 Therefore now, O LORD [Yahweh], take, I beseech you, my life from me; for [it is] better for me to die than to live.
4 Then said the LORD [Yahweh], Do  you well to be angry?
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.
6 And the LORD [Yahweh] 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.
7 But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd that it withered.
8 And it came to pass, when the sun arose, 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.
9 And God said to Jonah, Do  you well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, [even] to death.
10 Then said the LORD [Yahweh], You have had pity on the gourd, for the which you have not laboured, neither made it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:
11 And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; and [also] much cattle?
