Jonah 4:7-9

Revised Standard Version

⁷ But when dawn came up the next day, God appointed a worm which attacked the plant,^[a] so that it withered. ⁸ When the sun rose, God appointed a sultry east wind, and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah so that he was faint; and he asked that he might die, and said, “It is better for me to die than to live.” ⁹ But God said to Jonah, “Do you do well to be angry for the plant?”^[b] And he said, “I do well to be angry, angry enough to die.”
