1 But it displeased 3415 Jonah 3124 exceedingly 1419 7451, and he was very angry 2734.
2 And he prayed 6419 unto the LORD 3068, and said 559, I pray 577 thee, O LORD 3068, was not this my saying 1697, when I was yet in my country 127? Therefore I fled 1272 before 6923 unto Tarshish 8659: for I knew 3045 that thou art a gracious 2587 God 410, and merciful 7349, slow 750 to anger 639, and of great 7227 kindness 2617, and repentest 5162 thee of the evil 7451.
3 Therefore now, O LORD 3068, take 3947, I beseech thee, my life 5315 from me; for it is better 2896 for me to die 4194 than to live 2416.
4 Then said 559 the LORD 3068, Doest thou well 3190 to be angry 2734?
5 So Jonah 3124 went out 3318 of the city 5892, and sat 3427 on the east side 6924 of the city 5892, and there made 6213 him a booth 5521, and sat 3427 under it in the shadow 6738, till he might see 7200 what would become of the city 5892.
6 And the LORD 3068 God 430 prepared 4487 a gourd 7021, and made it to come up 5927 over Jonah 3124, that it might be a shadow 6738 over his head 7218, to deliver 5337 him from his grief 7451. So Jonah 3124 was exceeding 1419 8057 glad 8055 of the gourd 7021.
7 But God 430 prepared 4487 a worm 8438 when the morning 7837 rose 5927 the next day 4283, and it smote 5221 the gourd 7021 that it withered 3001.
8 And it came to pass, when the sun 8121 did arise 2224, that God 430 prepared 4487 a vehement 2759 east 6921 wind 7307; and the sun 8121 beat 5221 upon the head 7218 of Jonah 3124, that he fainted 5968, and wished 7592 in himself 5315 to die 4191, and said 559, It is better 2896 for me to die 4194 than to live 2416.
9 And God 430 said 559 to Jonah 3124, Doest thou well 3190 to be angry 2734 for the gourd 7021? And he said 559, I do well 3190 to be angry 2734, even unto death 4194.
10 Then said 559 the LORD 3068, Thou hast had pity 2347 on the gourd 7021, for the which thou hast not laboured 5998, neither madest it grow 1431; which came up in a night 1121 3915, and perished 6 in a night 1121 3915:
11 And should not I spare 2347 Nineveh 5210, that great 1419 city 5892, wherein are 3426 more 7235 than sixscore 8147 6240 thousand 7239 persons 120 that cannot discern 3045 between their right hand 3225 and their left hand 8040; and also much 7227 cattle 929?
