1. English - (Amplified Bible Version)

[Jonah 4:6-8]

6. And the Lord prepared a gourd (a wonder vine), and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shade over his head, to deliver him from his evil situation. So Jonah was exceedingly glad (to have  the protection) of the gourd. 

7. But God prepared a cutworm when the morning dawned the next day, and it smote the gourd so that it whithered. 

8. And when the sun arose, God prepared a sultry east wind, and the sun beat down upon the head of Jonah, so that he fainted and wished in himself to die, and said: "It is better for me to die than to live."

BOODSKAP VAN DIE DAG:

JONA SE SELFSUGTIGHEID EN SY GERINGSKATTING VAN DIE MENSE IN NINEVÉ: 

2. Afrikaans - (Ou Afrikaanse Vertaling)

[Jona 4:6-8]

6. Toe beskik die Here 'n wonderboom en laat dit oor Jona opskiet om te dien as skaduwee oor sy hoof, om hom van sy ontstemdheid te bevry; en Jona was baie bly oor die wonderboom. 

7. Maar God het die volgende môre toe die dag breek,'n wurm beskilk; en dié het die wonderboom gesteek, sodat dit verdor het. 

8. En met sonop het God 'n gloeiende oostewind beskik; en toe die son op fie hoof van Jona steek het hy magteloos geword en gewens dat hy mag sterwe, en gesê: "Dit is vir my beter om te sterwe as om te lewe."
