Jonah 4:8-11

4:8

And it came to pass, when the sun
<08121>

did arise
<02224> (8800)_,

that God
<0430>

prepared
<04487> (8762)

a vehement
<02759>

east
<06921>

wind
<07307>_;

and the sun
<08121>

beat
<05221> (8686)

upon the head
<07218>

of Jonah
<03124>_,

that he fainted
<05968> (8691)_,

and wished
<07592> (8799)

in himself
<05315>

to die
<04191> (8800)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

[It is] better
<02896>

for me to die
<04194>

than to live
<02416>_.

{vehement: or, silent}

4:9

And God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Jonah
<03124>_,

Doest thou well
<03190> (8687)

to be angry
<02734> (8804)

for the gourd
<07021>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I do well
<03190> (8687)

to be angry
<02734> (8804)_,

[even] unto death
<04194>_.

{Doest...: or, Art thou greatly angry?} {I do well...: or, I am greatly angry}

4:10

Then said
<0559> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Thou hast had pity
<02347> (8804)

on the gourd
<07021>_,

for the which thou hast not laboured
<05998> (8804)_,

neither madest it grow
<01431> (8765)_;

which came up in a night
<01121> <03915>_,

and perished
<06> (8804)

in a night
<01121> <03915>_:

{had pity: or, spared} {came...: Heb. was the son of the night}

4:11

And should not I spare
<02347> (8799)

Nineveh
<05210>_,

that great
<01419>

city
<05892>_,

wherein are
<03426>

more
<07235> (8687)

than sixscore
<08147> <06240>

thousand
<07239>

persons
<0120>

that cannot discern
<03045> (8804)

between their right hand
<03225>

and their left hand
<08040>_;

and [also] much
<07227>

cattle
<0929>_?
