2. 2GLTوَصَلَّى إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ وَقَالَ:«آهِ يَارَبُّ، أَلَيْسَ هَذَا كَلَامِي إِذْ كُنْتُ بَعْدُ فِي أَرْضِي؟ لِذَلِكَ بَادَرْتُ إِلَى ٱلْهَرَبِ إِلَى تَرْشِيشَ، لِأَنِّي عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ إِلَهٌ رَؤُوفٌ وَرَحِيمٌ بَطِيءُ ٱلْغَضَبِ وَكَثِيرُ ٱلرَّحْمَةِ وَنَادِمٌ عَلَى ٱلشَّرِّ.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. 3GLTفَٱلْآنَ يَارَبُّ، خُذْ نَفْسِي مِنِّي، لِأَنَّ مَوْتِي خَيْرٌ مِنْ حَيَاتِي».BSBBSB: And now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”
4. 4GLTفَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ:«هَلِ ٱغْتَظْتَ بِٱلصَّوَابِ؟».BSBBSB: But the LORD replied, “Have you any right to be angry?”
5. 5GLTوَخَرَجَ يُونَانُ مِنَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَجَلَسَ شَرْقِيَّ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَصَنَعَ لِنَفْسِهِ هُنَاكَ مَظَلَّةً وَجَلَسَ تَحْتَهَا فِي ٱلظِّلِّ، حَتَّى يَرَى مَاذَا يَحْدُثُ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ.BSBBSB: Then Jonah left the city and sat down east of it, where he made himself a shelter and sat in its shade to see what would happen to the city.
6. 6GLTفَأَعَدَّ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلإِلَهُ يَقْطِينَةً فَٱرْتَفَعَتْ فَوْقَ يُونَانَ لِتَكُونَ ظِلًّا عَلَى رَأْسِهِ، لِكَيْ يُخَلِّصَهُ مِنْ غَمِّهِ. فَفَرِحَ يُونَانُ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْيَقْطِينَةِ فَرَحًا عَظِيمًا.BSBBSB: So the LORD God appointed a vine, and it grew up to provide shade over Jonah’s head to ease his discomfort, and Jonah was greatly pleased with the plant.

8. 8GLTوَحَدَثَ عِنْدَ طُلُوعِ ٱلشَّمْسِ أَنَّ ٱللهَ أَعَدَّ رِيحًا شَرْقِيَّةً حَارَّةً، فَضَرَبَتِ ٱلشَّمْسُ عَلَى رَأْسِ يُونَانَ فَذَبُلَ. فَطَلَبَ لِنَفْسِهِ ٱلْمَوْتَ، وَقَالَ:«مَوْتِي خَيْرٌ مِنْ حَيَاتِي».BSBBSB: As the sun was rising, God appointed a scorching east wind, and the sun beat down on Jonah’s head so that he grew faint and wished to die, saying, “It is better for me to die than to live.”
9. 9GLTفَقَالَ ٱللهُ لِيُونَانَ:«هَلِ ٱغْتَظْتَ بِٱلصَّوَابِ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْيَقْطِينَةِ؟» فَقَالَ:«ٱغْتَظْتُ بِٱلصَّوَابِ حَتَّى ٱلْمَوْتِ».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. 10GLTفَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ:«أَنْتَ شَفِقْتَ عَلَى ٱلْيَقْطِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي لَمْ تَتْعَبْ فِيهَا وَلَا رَبَّيْتَهَا، ٱلَّتِي بِنْتَ لَيْلَةٍ كَانَتْ وَبِنْتَ لَيْلَةٍ هَلَكَتْ.BSBBSB: But the LORD said, “You cared about the plant, which you neither tended nor made grow. It sprang up in a night and perished in a night.
11. 11GLTأَفَلَا أَشْفَقُ أَنَا عَلَى نِينَوَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ ٱلَّتِي يُوجَدُ فِيهَا أَكْثَرُ مِنِ ٱثْنَتَيْ عَشَرَةَ رِبْوَةً مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَعْرِفُونَ يَمِينَهُمْ مِنْ شِمَالِهِمْ، وَبَهَائِمُ كَثِيرَةٌ؟».BSBBSB: So should I not care about the great city of Nineveh, which has more than 120,000 people who cannot tell their right hand from their left, and many cattle as well?”
