Jonas 4:1-3
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Nagalit si Jonas Dahil sa Pagkahabag ng Panginoon
4 Sumama ang loob ni Jonas dahil sa pagpapatawad ng Panginoon sa Nineve, at galit na galit siya. 2 Sinabi niya sa Panginoon nang siya ay manalangin, “O Panginoon, talagang hindi ako nagkamali nang sabihin ko noong naroon pa ako sa aming lugar na kaaawaan mo ang mga taga-Nineve kung magsisisi sila, dahil alam ko na mahabagin kang Dios at mapagmalasakit. Mapagmahal ka at hindi madaling magalit. At handa kang magbago ng isip na hindi na magpadala ng parusa. Iyan ang dahilan kung bakit tumakas ako papuntang Tarshish. 3 Kaya Panginoon, kunin mo na lang ako, dahil mas mabuti pang mamatay ako kaysa mabuhay.”

Jonah 4:1-3
New International Version
Jonah’s Anger at the Lord’s Compassion
4 But to Jonah this seemed very wrong, and he became angry.(A) 2 He prayed to the Lord, “Isn’t this what I said, Lord, when I was still at home? That is what I tried to forestall by fleeing to Tarshish. I knew(B) that you are a gracious(C) and compassionate God, slow to anger and abounding in love,(D) a God who relents(E) from sending calamity.(F) 3 Now, Lord, take away my life,(G) for it is better for me to die(H) than to live.”(I)
Jonah 4:1-3
King James Version
4 But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry.
2 And he prayed unto the Lord, and said, I pray thee, O Lord, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.
3 Therefore now, O Lord, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.
