1 Greatly displeased, Jonah flew into a rage.

2 So he prayed to the LORD, |LORD, isn't this what I said while I was still in my home country? That's why I fled previously to Tarshish, because I knew you're a compassionate God, slow to anger, overflowing with gracious love, and reluctant to send trouble.

3 Therefore, LORD, please kill me, because it's better for me to die than to live!|

4 The LORD replied, |Does being angry make you right?|
