Jonah 4:7-9

Expanded Bible

⁷ But the next day when the sun rose, God sent a worm to attack the ·plant [gourd] so that it ·died [dried up; withered].

⁸ As the sun rose higher in the sky, God sent a very hot east wind to blow, and the sun ·became so hot [beat down] on Jonah’s head that he became ·very weak [faint] and wished he were dead. He said, “It is better for me to die than to live.”

⁹ But God said to Jonah, “Do you think it is right for you to be angry about the ·plant [gourd]?”

Jonah answered, “It is right for me to be angry! I am so angry I could die!”
