1 But it displeased H7489 W-VQY3MS Jonah H3124 EMS exceedingly H7451 AFS , and he was very angry H2734 W-VQY3MS .
2 And he prayed H6419 W-VTY3MS unto H413 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , I pray thee H577 IJEC , O LORD H3068 EDS , was not H3808 D-NPAR this H2088 DPRO my saying H1697 CMS-1MS , when I was H1961 VQFC-1MS yet H5704 PREP in H5921 PREP my country H127 CFS-1MS ? Therefore H5921 PREP I fled H1272 L-VQFC before H6923 VPQ1MS unto Tarshish H8659 LFS-3FS : for H3588 CONJ I knew H3045 VQY1MS that H3588 CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS art a gracious H2587 AMS God H410 NMS , and merciful H7349 W-AMS , slow H750 JMS to anger H639 NMD , and of great H7227 W-JMS kindness H2617 NMS , and repentest H5162 W-VNPMS thee of H5921 PREP the evil H7451 D-AFS .
3 Therefore now H6258 W-ADV , O LORD H3068 EDS , take H3947 VQI2MS , I beseech thee H4994 IJEC , my life H5315 CFS-1MS from H4480 M-PREP-1MS me ; for H3588 CONJ it is better H2896 AMS for me to die H4194 VQQ3MS than to live H2416 M-NMS-1MS .
4 Then said H559 W-VQY3MS the LORD H3068 EDS , Doest thou well H3190 I-VHI2MS to be angry H2734 VQQ3MS ?
5 So Jonah H3124 EMS went out H3318 W-VQY3MS of H4480 PREP the city H5892 D-GFS , and sat H3427 W-VQY3MS on the east side H6924 M-NMS of the city H5892 L-NMS , and there H8033 ADV made H6213 W-VQY3MS him a booth H5521 NFS , and sat H3427 W-VQY3MS under H8478 CMP-3FS it in the shadow H6738 B-NMS , till H5704 PREP he might see H7200 VQY3MS what H4100 IPRO would become H1961 VQY3MS of the city H5892 B-NMS .
6 And the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS God H430 EDP prepared H4487 W-VPY3MS a gourd H7021 NMS , and made it to come up H5927 W-VHY3MS over H5921 M-PREP Jonah H3124 L-EMS , that it might be H1961 L-VQFC a shadow H6738 NMS over H5921 M-PREP his head H7218 CMS-3MS , to deliver H5337 L-VHFC him from his grief H7451 M-CFS-3MS . So Jonah H3124 EMS was H8055 W-VQY3MS exceeding glad H1419 AFS of H5921 M-PREP the gourd H7021 D-NMS .
7 But God H430 D-NAME-4MP prepared H4487 W-VPY3MS a worm H8438 CFS when the morning H7837 D-NMS rose H5927 B-CFP the next day H4283 LD-CFS , and it smote H5221 W-VHY3FS the gourd H7021 D-NMS that it withered H3001 W-VQY3MS .
8 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when the sun H8121 D-NMS did arise H2224 K-VQFC , that God H430 EDP prepared H4487 W-VPY3MS a vehement H2759 AFS east H6921 NMP wind H7307 NFS ; and the sun H8121 D-NMS beat H5221 W-VHY3FS upon H5921 PREP the head H7218 NMS of Jonah H3124 EMS , that he fainted H5968 W-VTY3MS , and wished H7592 W-VQY3MS in H854 himself H5315 NMS-3MS to die H4191 L-VQFC , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , It is better H2896 AMS for me to die H4194 than to live H2416 M-NMS-1MS .
9 And God H430 EDP said H559 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Jonah H3124 EMS , Doest thou well H3190 I-VHI2MS to be angry H2734 VQQ3MS for H5921 PREP the gourd H7021 D-NMS ? And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , I do well H3190 VHFA to be angry H2734 VQQ3MS , even unto H5704 PREP death H4194 NMS .
10 Then said H559 W-VQY3MS the LORD H3068 EDS , Thou H859 PPRO-2MS hast had pity H2347 VQQ2MS on H5921 PREP the gourd H7021 D-NMS , for the which H834 RPRO thou hast not H3808 NADV labored H5998 VQQ2MS , neither H3808 W-NADV madest it grow H1431 VPQ2MS-3MS ; which came up H1961 VQQ3MS in a night H3915 GMS , and perished H6 VQQ3MS in H1121 S-CMS a night H3915 GMS :
11 And should not H3808 NADV I H589 W-PPRO-1MS spare H2347 VQI1MS Nineveh H5210 LFS , that great H1419 D-AFS city H5892 D-GFS , wherein H834 RPRO are H3426 ADV more H7235 VHFA than sixscore thousand H8147 M-MFS persons H120 NMS that H834 RPRO cannot H3808 ADV discern H3045 VQQ3MS between H996 PREP their right hand H3225 CFS-3MS and their left hand H8040 L-CMS-3MS ; and also much H7227 AFS cattle H929 W-NFS ?
