4 And_it _was _displeasing to Yōnāh/(Jonah) displeasure great and_it _glowed/burnt to_him/it.

2 And_he _prayed to YHWH and_he _said please Oh_YHWH am_not was_this message _of_my until was_I on land _of_my _own therefore yes/correct/thus/so I _did _the _first _time to_flee to_Tarshiysh if/because I _knew if/because _that you are_a _god gracious and_compassionate long _of anger(s) and_great _of covenant _loyalty and_who_relents on (the)_evil.

3 And_now Oh_YHWH take please DOM life _of_my from_me if/because is_good death _of_my more_than _of_my _life.

4 and_ YHWH _he/it _said rightly_(do _well) does _it _burn to/for_you(fs).

5 And_ Yōnāh _he/it _went _out from the_city and_he/it _sat _down//remained//lived from_east of_city and_he/it _made to_him/it there a _shelter and_he/it _sat _down//remained//lived under_it in_shade until that he _will _see what will _it _be in_city.

6 And_ YHWH _he/it _assigned god a _plant and_he/it _ascended from_under (to)_Yōnāh to_be shade over his/its_head to_deliver to_him/it from_distress _of_his and_ Yōnāh _he _rejoiced on the_plant a _joy great.

7 And_he/it _assigned the_ʼElohīm a _worm when_came _up the_dawn to_day and_it _attacked DOM the_plant and_it _withered.

8 And_he/it _was just_as _arose the_sun and_ god _he/it _assigned a _wind _of an _east _wind hot and_it _struck the_sun on the _head _of Yōnāh/(Jonah) and_he _became _faint and_he _asked DOM life _of_his to_die and_he/it _said is_good death _of_my more_than _of_my _life.

9 And_ god _he/it _said to Yōnāh rightly_(do _well) does _it _burn to/for_yourself(m) on the_plant and_he/it _said rightly _(do _well) it _burns to_me to death.

10 And_ YHWH _he/it _said you you _had _compassion on the_plant which not you _had _toiled in/on/over_him/it and_not you_had _made _it _grow which_a _son _of a _night it _was and_a _son _of a _night it _perished.

11 And_I not will _I _have _compassion on Nīnəvēh the_city (the)_great which there_are in_it many more_than _two _plus ten ten _thousand person[s] who not he _distinguishes between hand _of_his _right and_left _of_his and_livestock much.
