2 | And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O LORD, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil. | H · G · S 145S8 Jl 2:13 |

Therefore now, O LORD, take, I
beseech thee, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than
to live. |
