1 And this displeased Ionas greatly, and he was angrye within him selfe. 2 And he prayed vnto the Lorde, and saide: I pray thee O Lorde, was not this my saying when I was yet in my countrey? therfore I hasted to flee into Tharsis: For I knewe that thou art a gratious God, and mercifull, long suffering, and of great kindnesse, and repentest thee of euill. 3 And nowe O Lorde, take I beseche thee my lyfe from me: for it is better for me to dye, then to lyue. 4 Then saide the Lord, Doest thou wel to be angry?
