Knjiga proroka Jone

Capitolo 4
1 A Joni bi vrlo nedrago, i rasrdi se.
2 I pomoli se Gospodu i reče: Gospode! Ne rekoh li to kad još bejah u svojoj zemlji? Zato htedoh pre pobeći u Tarsis; jer znah da si Ti Bog milostiv i žalostiv, spor na gnev i obilan milosrđem i kaješ se oda zla.
3 Sada Gospode, uzmi dušu moju od mene, jer mi je bolje umreti nego živeti.
4 A Gospod reče: Je li dobro što se srdiš?
5 I Jona iziđe iz grada, i sede s istoka gradu i načini onde kolibu, i seđaše pod njom u hladu da vidi šta će biti od grada.
6 A Gospod Bog zapovedi, te uzraste tikva nad Jonom da mu bude sen nad glavom da mu pomogne u muci njegovoj; i Jona se obradova tikvi veoma.
7 Potom zapovedi Bog, te dođe crv u zoru sutradan, i podgrize tikvu, te usahnu.
8 I kad ogranu sunce, posla Bog suv istočni vetar; i sunce stade žeći Jonu po glavi tako da obamiraše i požele da umre govoreći: Bolje mi je umreti nego živeti.
9 A Bog reče Joni: Je li dobro što se srdiš tikve radi? A on reče: Dobro je što se srdim do smrti.
10 A Gospod mu reče: Tebi je žao tikve, oko koje se nisi trudio, i koje nisi odgajio, nego jednu noć uzraste a drugu noć propade.
11 A meni da ne bude žao Ninevije, velikog grada, u kome ima više od sto i dvadeset hiljada ljudi koji još ne znaju šta je desno šta li levo, i mnogo stoke?

Jonah

Capitolo 4
1 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.
4 ¶ Then said the LORD, Doest thou well to be angry?
5 So Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made him a booth, and sat under it in the shadow, till he might see what would become of the city.
6 And the LORD God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him from his grief. So Jonah was exceeding glad of the gourd.
7 But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd that it withered.
8 And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God prepared a vehement east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.
9 And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, even unto death.
10 Then said the LORD, Thou hast had pity on the gourd, for the which thou hast not laboured, neither madest it grow; which came up in a night, and perished in a night:
11 And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also much cattle?
