1	But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry.
			2	And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O LORD, not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.
			3	Therefore now, O LORD, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for better for me to die than to live.
			4	Then said the LORD, Doest thou well to be angry?
			5	So Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made him a booth, and sat under it in the shadow, till he might see what would become of the city.
			6	And the LORD God prepared a gourd, and made to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him from his grief. So Jonah was exceeding glad of the gourd.
			7	But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd that it withered.
			8	And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God prepared a vehement east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, better for me to die than to live.
			9	And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, unto death.
			10	Then said the LORD, Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for the which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:
			11	And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; and much cattle?
