Jonah 4:1-3

1But it greatly displeased Jonah and he became angry.

2He prayed to the Lord and said, “O Lord, is this not what I said when I was still in my country? That is why I ran to Tarshish, because I knew that You are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and great in lovingkindness, and [when sinners turn to You] You revoke the [sentence of] disaster [against them].

3Therefore now, O Lord, just take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
