Jonah 4:9-11

Modern English Version

⁹ Then God said to Jonah, “Is it right for you to be angry about the plant?”

And Jonah replied, “It is right for me to be angry, even to death.”

¹⁰ The Lord said, “You are troubled about the plant for which you did not labor and did not grow. It came up in a night and perished in a night. ¹¹ Should I not, therefore, be concerned about Nineveh, that great city, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people, who do not know their right hand from their left, and also many animals?”
