Jonah 4:1-5

1But it displeasedH7489 JonahH3124 exceedinglyH1419, and he was angryH2734.

2And he prayedH6419 unto the LORDH3068, and saidH559, I prayH6419 thee, O LORDH3068, was notH3808 this my sayingH559, when I was yet in my countryH127? Therefore I hasted to fleeH1272 unto TarshishH8659: for I knewH3045 that thou art a graciousH2587 GodH410, and fullH7227 of compassionH5162, slowH750 to angerH639, and plenteous in mercyH3068, and repentest thee of the evilH7451.

3Therefore nowH6258, O LORDH3068, takeH3947, I beseechH4994 thee, my lifeH5315 from meH4994; for it is betterH2896 for meH4994 to dieH4194 thanH4480 to liveH2416.

4And the LORDH3068 saidH559, Doest thou wellH3190 to be angryH2734?

5Then JonahH3124 wentH3318 outH3318 of the cityH5892, and satH3427 on the eastH6924 side of the cityH5892, and there madeH6213 him a boothH5521, and satH3427 underH8478 it in the shadowH6738, tillH5704 he might seeH7200 whatH4100 would becomeH1961 of the cityH5892.
