But it displeasedH3415 JonahH3124 exceedinglyH1419+H7451, and he was very angryH2734.
And he prayedH6419 unto the LORDH3068, and saidH559, I prayH577 thee, O LORDH3068, was not this my sayingH1697, when I was yet in my countryH127? Therefore I fledH1272 beforeH6923 unto TarshishH8659: for I knewH3045 that thou art a graciousH2587 GodH410, and mercifulH7349, slowH750 to angerH639, and of greatH7227 kindnessH2617, and repentestH5162 thee of the evilH7451.
Therefore now, O LORDH3068, takeH3947, I beseech thee, my lifeH5315 from me; for it is betterH2896 for me to dieH4194 than to liveH2416.
Then saidH559 the LORDH3068, Doest thou wellH3190 to be angryH2734? {Doest…: or, Art thou greatly angry?}
So JonahH3124 went outH3318 of the cityH5892, and satH3427 on the east sideH6924 of the cityH5892, and there madeH6213 him a boothH5521, and satH3427 under it in the shadowH6738, till he might seeH7200 what would become of the cityH5892.
And the LORDH3068 GodH430 preparedH4487 a gourdH7021, and made it to come upH5927 over JonahH3124, that it might be a shadowH6738 over his headH7218, to deliverH5337 him from his griefH7451. So JonahH3124 was exceedingH1419+H8057 gladH8055 of the gourdH7021. {gourd: or, palmcrist: Heb. Kikajon} {was…: Heb. rejoiced with great joy}
But GodH430 preparedH4487 a wormH8438 when the morningH7837 roseH5927 the next dayH4283, and it smoteH5221 the gourdH7021 that it witheredH3001.
And it came to pass, when the sunH8121 did ariseH2224, that GodH430 preparedH4487 a vehementH2759 eastH6921 windH7307; and the sunH8121 beatH5221 upon the headH7218 of JonahH3124, that he faintedH5968, and wishedH7592 in himselfH5315 to dieH4191, and saidH559, It is betterH2896 for me to dieH4194 than to liveH2416. {vehement: or, silent}
And GodH430 saidH559 to JonahH3124, Doest thou wellH3190 to be angryH2734 for the gourdH7021? And he saidH559, I do wellH3190 to be angryH2734, even unto deathH4194. {Doest…: or, Art thou greatly angry?} {I do well…: or, I am greatly angry}
Then saidH559 the LORDH3068, Thou hast had pityH2347 on the gourdH7021, for the which thou hast not labouredH5998, neither madest it growH1431; which came up in a nightH1121+H3915, and perishedH6 in a nightH1121+H3915: {had pity: or, spared} {came…: Heb. was the son of the night}
And should not I spareH2347 NinevehH5210, that greatH1419 cityH5892, wherein areH3426 moreH7235 than sixscoreH8147+H6240 thousandH7239 personsH120 that cannot discernH3045 between their right handH3225 and their left handH8040; and also muchH7227 cattleH929?
