3. “And now, O יהוה, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live!”
4. And יהוה said, “Are you right to be displeased?”
5. Then Yonah went out of the city and sat on the east side of the city, and made himself a shelter there, and sat under it in the shade, to see what would become of the city.
6. And יהוה Elohim appointed a plant and made it come up over Yonah, to be a shade for his head to deliver him from his discomfort. And Yonah greatly rejoiced over the plant.
7. But as morning dawned the next day Elohim appointed a worm which attacked the plant so that it withered.
