"Doest thou well to be angry?" the Lord inquired. "So Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made him a booth, and sat under it in the shadow, till he might see what would become of the city. And the Lord God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him from his grief. So Jonah was exceeding glad of the gourd." Verses 3-6.

"Men Herren sagde: "Er det med rette, du er vred?" Så gik Jonas ud og slog sig ned østen for byen; der byggede han sig en løvhytte og satte sig i skygge under den for at se, hvorledes det gik byen. Da bød Gud Herren en olieplante skyde op over Jonas og skygge over hans hoved for at tage hans mismod, og Jonas glædede sig meget over den." 3-6. vers.
