¹But it displeased Yonah [dove] exceedingly, and he was very angry.

²And he prayed unto the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , and said, I pray youi , O Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , [was] not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish [yellow jasper] : for I knew that youi [are] a gracious God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] , and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repent youi of the evil.

³Therefore now, O Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , take, I beseech (to call upon; appeal; beg) youi , my life from me; for [it is] better for me to die than to live.

⁴Then said the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , Do youi well to be angry?

⁵So Yonah [dove] 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 -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] prepared a gourd, and made [it] to come up over Yonah [dove] , that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him from his grief. So Yonah [dove] was exceeding glad of the gourd.

⁷But God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it struck the gourd that it withered.

⁸And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] prepared a vehement (violent; forceful; furious) east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Yonah [dove] , that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, [It is] better for me to die than to live.

⁹And God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] said to Yonah [dove] , Do youi well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, [even] unto death.

¹⁰Then said the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , youi have had pity on the gourd, for the which youi have not laboured, neither made it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:

¹¹And should not I spare Nineveh [abode of Ninus, or Offspring’s Habitation] , 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?
