Jonah 4:1 in context

  1. 1But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry.
  2. 2He prayed to Yahweh, and said, “Please, Yahweh, wasn’t this what I said when I was still in my own country? Therefore I hurried to flee to Tarshish, for I knew that you are a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and you relent of doing harm.
  3. 3Therefore now, Yahweh, take, I beg you, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.”
