Jonah’s Anger at the LORD’s Compassion1But to Jonah this seemed very wrong, and he became angry. 2He prayed to the LORD, “Isn’t this what I said, LORD, when I was still at home? That is what I tried to forestall by fleeing to Tarshish. I knew that you are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abounding in love, a God who relents from sending calamity.
3Now, LORD, take away my life, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
