Context
7Lakini kesho yake asubuhi na mapema Mungu akaamuru buu, autafune mzabibu huo nao ukanyauka. 8Wakati jua lilipochomoza, Mungu akautuma upepo wa hari wa mashariki, nalo jua likawaka juu ya kichwa cha Yona mpaka akazimia. Akatamani kufa, naye akasema, “Ni afadhali mimi nife kuliko kuishi.” 9Lakini Mungu alimwambia Yona, “Je, unayo haki kukasirika kuhusu mzabibu huo?”
Akasema, “Ndiyo, ninayo haki. Nimekasirika kiasi cha kufa.” 10Lakini Bwana akamwambia, “Wewe unakasirika kwa ajili ya mzabibu huu, nawe hukuusababisha kuota wala kuutunza. Uliota usiku mmoja, nao ukafa usiku mmoja. 11Lakini Ninawi ina zaidi ya watu 120,000 ambao hawawezi kupambanua kulia au kushoto, pamoja na ngʼombe wengi. Je, hainipasi kufikiri juu ya mji ule mkubwa?”
