“ God relented of the disaster which he said he would do to them, and he didn't do it. 004:001 But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry. 004:002 He prayed to Yahweh, and said, "Please, Yahweh, 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. 004:003 Therefore now, Yahweh, take, I beg you, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live." ”

“ He said, "I am right to be angry, even to death." 004:010 Yahweh said, "You have been concerned for the vine, for which you have not labored, neither made it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night. 004:011 Shouldn't I be concerned for Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than one hundred twenty thousand persons who can't discern between their right hand and their left hand ”

“ Yes, let them turn everyone from his evil way, and from the violence that is in his hands. 003:009 Who knows whether God will not turn and relent, and turn away from his fierce anger, so that we might not perish? ”
