Jonah 4:6-8

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁶ Then the Lord God provided a plant and made it grow up over Jonah to provide shade over his head, to relieve him from his discomfort. So Jonah was very happy about the plant. ⁷ But at dawn the next day God provided a worm, and it attacked the plant so that it withered. ⁸ When the sun rose, God provided a scorching east wind. The sun beat down on Jonah’s head so that he grew faint. He wanted to die, so he said, “It is better for me to die than to live.”
