- 耶和華 神安排一棵蓖麻、使其發生高過約拿、影兒遮蓋他的頭、救他脫離苦楚.約拿因這棵蓖麻大大喜樂。
- 次日黎明、 神卻安排一條蟲子、咬這蓖麻、以致枯槁。
- 日頭出來的時候、 神安排炎熱的東風.日頭曝曬約拿的頭、使他發昏、他就為自己求死、說、我死了比活著還好。
- 神對約拿說、你因這棵蓖麻發怒合乎理麼.他說、我發怒以至於死、都合乎理。
- 耶和華說、這蓖麻不是你栽種的、也不是你培養的.一夜發生、一夜乾死你尚且愛惜.

- Then the LORD God provided a vine and made it grow up over Jonah to give shade for his head to ease his discomfort, and Jonah was very happy about the vine.
- But at dawn the next day God provided a worm, which chewed the vine so that it withered.
- When the sun rose, God provided a scorching east wind, and the sun blazed on Jonah's head so that he grew faint. He wanted to die, and said, "It would be better for me to die than to live."
- But God said to Jonah, "Do you have a right to be angry about the vine?" "I do," he said. "I am angry enough to die."
- But the LORD said, "You have been concerned about this vine, though you did not tend it or make it grow. It sprang up overnight and died overnight.
