6So the LordH3068 GodH430 appointedH4487 a 1plantH7021 and it grewH5927 up overH4480H5921 JonahH3124 to be a shadeH6738 overH5921 his headH7218 to deliverH5337 him from his discomfortH7463. And JonahH3124 was 2extremelyH8057H1419 happyH8055 aboutH5921 the 3plantH7021. 7But GodH430 appointedH4487 a wormH8439 when dawnH7837 cameH5927 the nextH4283 dayH4283 and it attackedH5221 the plantH7021 and it 4witheredH3001. 8When the sunH8121 cameH2224 up GodH430 appointedH4487 a scorchingH2759 5eastH6921 windH7307, and the 6sunH8121 beatH5221 downH5221 on Jonah’sH3124 headH7218 so that he becameH5968 faintH5968 and beggedH7592 with all his soulH5315 to dieH4191, sayingH559, “7DeathH4194 is betterH2896 to me thanH4480 lifeH2425.”
9Then GodH430 saidH559 to JonahH3124, “Do you have goodH3190 reasonH3190 to be angryH2734 aboutH5921 the plantH7021?” And he saidH559, “I have goodH3190 reasonH3190 to be angryH2734, even to deathH4194.”
