1 But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry. 2 He prayed to the LORD, and said, |Please, LORD, 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 Therefore now, LORD, take, I beg you, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.| 4 The LORD said, |Is it right for you to be angry?| Jonah 4:1-4, New Heart English Bible.
