Jonah 4:10-11
Easy-to-Read Version
10 And the Lord said, “You did nothing for that plant. You did not make it grow. It grew up in the night, and the next day it died. And now you are sad about it. 11 If you can get upset over a plant, surely I can feel sorry for a big city like Nineveh. There are many people and animals in that city. There are more than 120,000 people there who did not know they were doing wrong.”[a]

Jonah 4:10-11
New International Version
10 But the Lord said, “You have been concerned about this plant, though you did not tend it or make it grow. It sprang up overnight and died overnight. 11 And should I not have concern(A) for the great city of Nineveh,(B) in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot tell their right hand from their left—and also many animals?”
