Therefore now, O Lord, take, I beseech thee, my life from me; for [it is] better for me to die than to live. (4:3)

And it came to pass, when the sun did arise, that God prepared a vehement east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he fainted, and wished in himself to die, and said, [It is] better for me to die than to live. (4:8)
