Have you commanded the morning since your days began, and caused the dawn to know its place,

that it might take hold of the ends of the earth, and the wicked be shaken out of it?

And it happened when the sun rose, that God appointed a scorching east wind; and the sun beat on Jonah's head, so that he fainted; and he begged for his soul to die. And he said, It is better for me to die than to live.

For as the lightning comes out of the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
