Jonah’s Anger

4 But this was a great evil to Jonah, and he became ^(A)angry. ² And he ^(B)prayed to Yahweh and said, “Ah! O Yahweh, was not this my word to myself while I was still in my own land? Therefore I went ahead to ^(C)flee to Tarshish, for I knew that You are a ^(D)gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness, and one who relents concerning evil.
