Jon 4:2

Jon 4:2And he prayed to 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 to Tarshish: for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest of the evil.

Jon 4:3

Jon 4:3Therefore now, O LORD, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.

Jon 4:11And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than a hundred and twenty thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand, and also many cattle?
