Jonah 4:1-11

Jonah finishes preaching to Nineveh. They all repent and God relents in sending calamity.  Jonah sets up camp outside east of the city because he wants to watch destruction come upon the city.  As he realizes the response of the city and God's response also, he becomes angry and does not show any compassion toward Nineveh but instead he becomes depressed and wants to die.
