Jonah 4:6-10

And the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
prepared
<04487> (8762)
a gourd
<07021>_,
and made [it] to come up
<05927> (8799)
over Jonah
<03124>_,
that it might be a shadow
<06738>
over his head
<07218>_,
to deliver
<05337> (8687)
him from his grief
<07451>_.
So Jonah
<03124>
was exceeding
<01419> <08057>
glad
<08055> (8799)
of the gourd
<07021>_.
{gourd: or, palmcrist: Heb. Kikajon} {was...: Heb. rejoiced with great joy}
But God
<0430>
prepared
<04487> (8762)
a worm
<08438>
when the morning
<07837>
rose
<05927> (8800)
the next day
<04283>_,
and it smote
<05221> (8686)
the gourd
<07021>
that it withered
<03001> (8799)_.
And it came to pass, when the sun
<08121>
did arise
<02224> (8800)_,
that God
<0430>
prepared
<04487> (8762)
a vehement
<02759>
east
<06921>
wind
<07307>_;
and the sun
<08121>
beat
<05221> (8686)
upon the head
<07218>
of Jonah
<03124>_,
that he fainted
<05968> (8691)_,
and wished
<07592> (8799)
in himself
<05315>
to die
<04191> (8800)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
[It is] better
<02896>
for me to die
<04194>
than to live
<02416>_.
{vehement: or, silent}
And God
<0430>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Jonah
<03124>_,
Doest thou well
<03190> (8687)
to be angry
<02734> (8804)
for the gourd
<07021>_?
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
I do well
<03190> (8687)
to be angry
<02734> (8804)_,
[even] unto death
<04194>_.
{Doest...: or, Art thou greatly angry?} {I do well...: or, I am greatly angry}
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Thou hast had pity
<02347> (8804)
on the gourd
<07021>_,
for the which thou hast not laboured
<05998> (8804)_,
neither madest it grow
<01431> (8765)_;
which came up in a night
<01121> <03915>_,
and perished
<06> (8804)
in a night
<01121> <03915>_:
{had pity: or, spared} {came...: Heb. was the son of the night}
