Jonah 3:10–4:2

¹⁰And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil which he said he would do unto them; and he did it not.

4But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry. ²And he prayed unto Jehovah, and said, I pray thee, O Jehovah, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I hasted to flee unto Tarshish; for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness, and repentest thee of the evil.
