2. 2DA31Så bad han til HERREN og sagde: “Ak, HERRE! Var det ikke det, jeg tænkte, da jeg endnu var hjemme i mit Land? Derfor vilde jeg også før fly til Tarsis; jeg vidste jo, at du er en nådig og barmhjertig Gud, langmodig og rig på Miskundhed, og at du angrer det onde.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. 3DA31Så tag nu, HERRE, mit Liv; thi jeg vil hellere dø end leve.”BSBBSB: And now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.”

8. 8DA31og da Solen stod op, rejste Gud en glødende Østenstorm, og Solen stak Jonas i Hovedet, så han vansmægtede og ønskede sig Døden, idet han tænkte: “Jeg vil hellere dø end leve.”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. 9DA31Men Gud sagde til Jonas: “Er det med Rette, du er vred for Olieplantens Skyld?” Han svarede: “Ja, med Rette er jeg så vred, at jeg kunde tage min Død derover.”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!”
