Jonah 4:1-5

1But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he became angry.

2So he prayed to the Lord, and said, “Ah, Lord, was not this what I said when I was still in my country? Therefore I fled previously to Tarshish; for I know that You are a gracious and merciful God, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness, One who relents from doing harm.

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

4Then the Lord said, “Is it right for you to be angry?”

5So Jonah went out of the city and sat on the east side of the city. There he made himself a shelter and sat under it in the shade, till he might see what would become of the city.
