And the LORD said unto Jonah, "Art thou so angry?" And Jonah gat him out of the city and sat him down on the east side thereof, and made him there a booth and sat thereunder in the shadow, till he might see what should chance unto the city. And the LORD prepared as it were a wild vine which sprang up over Jonah, that he might have shadow over his head, to deliver him out of his pain. And Jonah was exceeding glad of the wild vine. And the LORD ordained a worm against the spring of the morrow morning which smote the wild vine that it withered away.
