²⁴ Which is the way to the place where the wind is measured out, and the east wind sent out over the earth?

¹² Have you, from your earliest days, given orders to the morning, or made the dawn conscious of its place;

¹³ So that it might take a grip of the skirts of the earth, shaking all the evil-doers out of it?

⁸ Then when the sun came up, God sent a burning east wind: and so great was the heat of the sun on his head that Jonah was overcome, and, requesting death for himself, said, Death is better for me than life.

²⁷ Because as in a thunderstorm the bright light coming from the east is seen even in the west; so will be the coming of the Son of man.
