Jonah

But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O Lord, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.

A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one’s birth.

And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out of hand, if I have found favour in thy sight; and let me not see my wretchedness.

Cursed be the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed.

Wherefore came I forth out of the womb to see labour and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
