H3415
But it displeased
[H8799]
H3124
Jonah
H1419
exceedingly
H7451
H2734
, and he was very angry
[H8799]
.
2
H6419
And he prayed
[H8691]
H3068
unto the LORD
H559
, and said
[H8799]
H577
, I pray
H3068
thee, O LORD
H1697
, was not this my saying
H127
, when I was yet in my country
H1272
? Therefore I fled
[H8800]
H6923
before
[H8765]
H8659
unto Tarshish
H3045
: for I knew
[H8804]
H2587
that thou art a gracious
H410
God
H7349
, and merciful
H750
, slow
H639
to anger
H7227
, and of great
H2617
kindness
H5162
, and repentest
[H8737]
H7451
thee of the evil.
3
H3068
Therefore now, O LORD
H3947
, take
[H8798]
H5315
, I beseech thee, my life
H2896
from me; for it is better
H4194
for me to die
H2416
than to live.
5
H3124
So Jonah
H3318
went out
[H8799]
H5892
of the city
H3427
, and sat
[H8799]
H6924
on the east side
H5892
of the city
H6213
, and there made
[H8799]
H5521
him a booth
H3427
, and sat
[H8799]
H6738
under it in the shadow
H7200
, till he might see
[H8799]
H5892
what would become of the city.
6
H3068
And the LORD
H430
God
H4487
prepared
[H8762]
H7021
a gourd
H5927
, and made it to come up
[H8799]
H3124
over Jonah
H6738
, that it might be a shadow
H7218
over his head
H5337
, to deliver
[H8687]
H7451
him from his grief
H3124
. So Jonah
H1419
was exceeding
H8057
H8055
glad
[H8799]
H7021
of the gourd.
7
H430
But God
H4487
prepared
[H8762]
H8438
a worm
H7837
when the morning
H5927
rose
[H8800]
H4283
the next day
H5221
, and it smote
[H8686]
H7021
the gourd
H3001
that it withered
[H8799]
.
8
H8121
And it came to pass, when the sun
H2224
did arise
[H8800]
H430
, that God
H4487
prepared
[H8762]
H2759
a vehement
H6921
east
H7307
wind
H8121
; and the sun
H5221
beat
[H8686]
H7218
upon the head
H3124
of Jonah
H5968
, that he fainted
[H8691]
H7592
, and wished
[H8799]
H5315
in himself
H4191
to die
[H8800]
H559
, and said
[H8799]
H2896
, It is better
H4194
for me to die
H2416
than to live.
9
H430
And God
H559
said
[H8799]
H3124
to Jonah
H3190
, Doest thou well
[H8687]
H2734
to be angry
[H8804]
H7021
for the gourd
H559
? And he said
[H8799]
H3190
, I do well
[H8687]
H2734
to be angry
[H8804]
H4194
, even unto death.
10
H559
Then said
[H8799]
H3068
the LORD
H2347
, Thou hast had pity
[H8804]
H7021
on the gourd
H5998
, for the which thou hast not laboured
[H8804]
H1431
, neither madest it grow
[H8765]
H1121
; which came up in a night
H3915
H6
, and perished
[H8804]
H1121
in a night
H3915
:
11
H2347
And should not I spare
[H8799]
H5210
Nineveh
H1419
, that great
H5892
city
H3426
, wherein are
H7235
more
[H8687]
H8147
than sixscore
H6240
H7239
thousand
H120
persons
H3045
that cannot discern
[H8804]
H3225
between their right hand
H8040
and their left hand
H7227
; and also much
H929
cattle?
