Jonah 4:6 in Context — Jonah 4
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.
6 E o SENHOR Deus preparou uma planta, e a fez crescer sobre Jonas para que fizesse sombra sobre sua cabeça, e lhe aliviasse de seu mal-estar; e Jonas se alegrou grandemente por causa da planta.
7 Mas Deus preparou uma lagarta no dia seguinte ao amanhecer, a qual feriu a planta, e ela se secou.
8 E aconteceu que, ao levantar do sol, Deus preparou um quente vento oriental; e o sol feriu a Jonas na cabeça, de modo que ele se desmaiava, e desejava a morte, dizendo: Melhor é para mim morrer do que viver.
