A Bethe-Salpeter-Faddeev (BSF) calculation is performed for the pentaquark {theta}{sup +} in the diquark picture of Jaffe and Wilczek in which {theta}{sup +} is a diquark-diquark-s three-body system. The Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model is used to calculate the lowest order diagrams in the two-body scatterings of sD and DD. With the use of coupling constants determined from the meson sector, we find that sD interaction is attractive in s-wave while the DD interaction is repulsive in the p-wave. With only the lowest three-body channel considered, we do not find a bound (1/2){sup +} pentaquark state. Instead, a bound pentaquark {theta}{sup +} with (1/2){sup -} is obtained with unphysically strong vector mesonic coupling constants.
