TSK · Jonah 4:3

And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness.

But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I [am] not better than my fathers.

¶ Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant [me] the thing that I long for!

I loathe [it]; I would not live alway: let me alone; for my days [are] vanity.

Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.

And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God prepared a vehement east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, [It is] better for me to die than to live.

¶ For to me to live [is] Christ, and to die [is] gain.
