2. 2NAVوَصَلَّى إِلَى الرَّبِّ قَائِلاً: «أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ، أَلَيْسَ هَذَا مَا قُلْتُهُ عِنْدَمَا كُنْتُ فِي بِلادِي؟ لِهَذَا أَسْرَعْتُ إِلَى الْهَرَبِ إِلَى تَرْشِيشَ، لأَنِّي عَرَفْتُ أَنَّكَ إِلَهٌ رَحِيمٌ رَؤُوفٌ بَطِيءُ الْغَضَبِ كَثِيرُ الإِحْسَانِ، تَرْجِعُ عَنِ الْعِقَابِ.BSBBSB: So he prayed to the LORD, saying, “O LORD, is this not what I said while I was still in my own country? This is why I was so quick to flee toward Tarshish. I knew that You are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion—One who relents from sending disaster.
3. 3NAVوَالآنَ دَعْنِي أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ أَلْفَظُ أَنْفَاسِي لأَنَّهُ خَيْرٌ لِي أَنْ أَمُوتَ مِنْ أَنْ أَحْيَا».BSBBSB: And now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”

9. 9NAVفَقَالَ اللهُ لِيُونَانَ: «أَأَنْتَ مُحِقٌّ فِي غَضَبِكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ الْيَقْطِينَةِ؟» فَأَجَابَ: «أَنَا مُحِقٌّ فِي غَضَبِي حَتَّى الْمَوْتِ».BSBBSB: Then God asked Jonah, “Have you any right to be angry about the plant?” “I do,” he replied. “I am angry enough to die!”
10. 10NAVفَقَالَ الرَّبُّ: «لَقَدْ أَشْفَقْتَ أَنْتَ عَلَى الْيَقْطِينَةِ الَّتِي لَمْ تَتْعَبْ فِي تَنْمِيَتِهَا وَتَرْبِيَتِهَا. هَذِهِ الْيَقْطِينَةُ الَّتِي تَرَعْرَعَتْ فِي لَيْلَةٍ وَذَوَتْ فِي لَيْلَةٍ.BSBBSB: But the LORD said, “You cared about the plant, which you neither tended nor made grow.
