1Jonah was totally vibing, but then he got mad mad, like, no cap.

2He was like, "Yo, Lord, this my whole vibe back when I was chillin' in my hometown? That's why I dipped to Tarshish; I knew you were all gracious and forgiving, slow to anger and super kind."

3So he was like, "Lord, just take my life; it's better to peace out than to keep living like this."

4The Lord was like, "You good to be angry though?"

5Jonah bounced outta the city, set up a little spot on the east side, and kicked back to see what would pop off with the city.

6God hooked Jonah up with a gourd to give him shade, and Jonah was living for that gourd, fr.

7But then God sent a worm the next morning, and it wrecked the gourd, making it wither.

8When the sun came up, God sent a savage east wind, and Jonah was feeling it hard, wishing he could just dip out, saying it’s better to die than to keep living.

9God asked Jonah, "You really mad about the gourd though?" Jonah was like, "I’m totally justified to be angry, even if it kills me."

10The Lord said, "You felt bad for the gourd you didn’t even work for, that popped up overnight and died overnight."

11"Shouldn’t I show love to Nineveh, that massive city with over 120,000 people who can’t even tell right from left, plus all the animals?"

1But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry.

2And he prayed unto the Lord, and said, I pray thee, O Lord, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.

3Therefore now, O Lord, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.

4Then said the Lord, Doest thou well to be angry?

5So Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made him a booth, and sat under it in the shadow, till he might see what would become of the city.

6And the Lord God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him from his grief. So Jonah was exceeding glad of the gourd.

7But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd that it withered.

8And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God prepared a vehement east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.

9And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, even unto death.

10Then said the Lord, Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for the which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:

11And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also much cattle?
