Jonah 4:3 in Context — Jonah 4
1 Mas Jonas se desgostou muito, e se encheu de ira.
2 E orou ao SENHOR, e disse: Ah, SENHOR, não foi isto o que eu dizia enquanto ainda estava em minha terra? Por isso me preveni fugindo a Társis; porque sabia eu que tu és Deus gracioso e misericordioso, que demoras a te irar, tens grande misericórdia, e te arrependes do mal.
3 Agora pois, ó SENHOR, peço-te que me mates, porque é melhor para mim morrer do que viver.
4 E o SENHOR lhe disse: É correta essa tua ira?
5 E Jonas saiu da cidade, e se sentou ao oriente da cidade, e fez para si ali uma barraca, e se sentou debaixo dela à sombra, até ver o que seria da cidade.
