[Elijah] came to a broom tree, sat down under it and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough, Lord.” he said. “Take my life; I am no better than my ancestors.” - I Kings 19:4
But Jonah was greatly displeased and became angry…”Now, Lord, take away my life, for it is better for me to die than live.” - Jonah 4:1, 3
