Jonah 4:2-4

Young's Literal Translation

² and he prayeth unto Jehovah, and he saith, `I pray Thee, O Jehovah, is not this my word while I was in mine own land -- therefore I was beforehand to flee to Tarshish -- that I have known that Thou [art] a God, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in kindness, and repenting of evil?

³ And now, O Jehovah, take, I pray Thee, my soul from me, for better [is] my death than my life.'

⁴ And Jehovah saith, `Is doing good displeasing to thee?'
