1 # And Ahab <0256> told <05046> (8686) Jezebel <0348> all that Elijah <0452> had done <06213> (8804), and withal how he had slain <02026> (8804) all the prophets <05030> with the sword <02719>.
2 Then Jezebel <0348> sent <07971> (8799) a messenger <04397> unto Elijah <0452>, saying <0559> (8800), So let the gods <0430> do <06213> (8799) to me, and more <03254> (8686) also, if I make <07760> (8799) not thy life <05315> as the life <05315> of one <0259> of them by to morrow <04279> about this time <06256>.
3 And when he saw <07200> (8799) that, he arose <06965> (8799), and went <03212> (8799) for his life <05315>, and came <0935> (8799) to Beersheba <0884>, which belongeth to Judah <03063>, and left <03240> (8686) his servant <05288> there.
4 But he himself went <01980> (8804) a day's <03117> journey <01870> into the wilderness <04057>, and came <0935> (8799) and sat down <03427> (8799) under a <0259> juniper tree <07574>: and he requested <07592> (8799) for himself <05315> that he might die <04191> (8800); and said <0559> (8799), It is enough <07227>; now, O LORD <03068> , take away <03947> (8798) my life <05315>; for I am not better <02896> than my fathers <01>.
5 And as he lay <07901> (8799) and slept <03462> (8799) under a <0259> juniper tree <07574>, behold, then an angel <04397> touched <05060> (8802) him, and said <0559> (8799) unto him, Arise <06965> (8798) and eat <0398> (8798).

6 And he looked <05027> (8686), and, behold, there was a cake <05692> baken on the coals <07529>, and a cruse <06835> of water <04325> at his head <04763>. And he did eat <0398> (8799) and drink <08354> (8799), and laid him down <07901> (8799) again <07725> (8799).
7 And the angel <04397> of the LORD <03068> came again <07725> (8799) the second time <08145>, and touched <05060> (8799) him, and said <0559> (8799), Arise <06965> (8798) and eat <0398> (8798); because the journey <01870> is too great <07227> for thee.
8 And he arose <06965> (8799), and did eat <0398> (8799) and drink <08354> (8799), and went <03212> (8799) in the strength <03581> of that meat <0396> forty <0705> days <03117> and forty <0705> nights <03915> unto Horeb <02722> the mount <02022> of God <0430>.
9 # And he came <0935> (8799) thither unto a cave <04631>, and lodged <03885> (8799) there; and, behold, the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came to him, and he said <0559> (8799) unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah <0452>?
10 And he said <0559> (8799), I have been very <07065> (8763) jealous <07065> (8765) for the LORD <03068> God <0430> of hosts <06635>: for the children <01121> of Israel <03478> have forsaken <05800> (8804) thy covenant <01285>, thrown down <02040> (8804) thine altars <04196>, and slain <02026> (8804) thy prophets <05030> with the sword <02719>; and I, even I only, am left <03498> (8735); and they seek <01245> (8762) my life <05315>, to take it away <03947> (8800).
11 And he said <0559> (8799), Go forth <03318> (8798), and stand <05975> (8804) upon the mount <02022> before <06440> the LORD <03068>. And, behold, the LORD <03068> passed by <05674> (8802), and a great <01419> and strong <02389> wind <07307> rent <06561> (8764) the mountains <02022>, and brake in pieces <07665> (8764) the rocks <05553> before <06440> the LORD <03068>; but the LORD <03068> was not in the wind <07307>: and after <0310> the wind <07307> an earthquake <07494>; but the LORD <03068> was not in the earthquake <07494>:
12 And after <0310> the earthquake <07494> a fire <0784>; but the LORD <03068> was not in the fire <0784> : and after <0310> the fire <0784> a still <01827> small <01851> voice <06963>.
13 And it was so, when Elijah <0452> heard <08085> (8800) it, that he wrapped <03874> (8686) his face <06440> in his mantle <0155>, and went out <03318> (8799), and stood <05975> (8799) in the entering in <06607> of the cave <04631>. And, behold, there came a voice <06963> unto him, and said <0559> (8799), What doest thou here, Elijah <0452> ?
14 And he said <0559> (8799), I have been very <07065> (8763) jealous <07065> (8765) for the LORD <03068> God <0430> of hosts <06635>: because the children <01121> of Israel <03478> have forsaken <05800> (8804) thy covenant <01285>, thrown down <02040> (8804) thine altars <04196>, and slain <02026> (8804) thy prophets <05030> with the sword <02719>; and I, even I only, am left <03498> (8735); and they seek <01245> (8762) my life <05315>, to take it away <03947> (8800).
15 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto him, Go <03212> (8798), return <07725> (8798) on thy way <01870> to the wilderness <04057> of Damascus <01834>: and when thou comest <0935> (8804), anoint <04886> (8804) Hazael <02371> to be king <04428> over Syria <0758>:
16 And Jehu <03058> the son <01121> of Nimshi <05250> shalt thou anoint <04886> (8799) to be king <04428> over Israel <03478>: and Elisha <0477> the son <01121> of Shaphat <08202> of Abelmeholah <065> shalt thou anoint <04886> (8799) to be prophet <05030> in thy room.
17 And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth <04422> (8737) the sword <02719> of Hazael <02371> shall Jehu <03058> slay <04191> (8686): and him that escapeth <04422> (8737) from the sword <02719> of Jehu <03058> shall Elisha <0477> slay <04191> (8686).
18 Yet I have left <07604> (8689) me seven <07651> thousand <0505> in Israel <03478>, all the knees <01290> which have not bowed <03766> (8804) unto Baal <01168>, and every mouth <06310> which hath not kissed <05401> (8804) him.
19 # So he departed <03212> (8799) thence, and found <04672> (8799) Elisha <0477> the son <01121> of Shaphat <08202>, who was plowing <02790> (8802) with twelve <08147> <06240> yoke <06776> of oxen before <06440> him, and he with the twelfth <08147> <06240>: and Elijah <0452> passed <05674> (8799) by him, and cast <07993> (8686) his mantle <0155> upon him.
20 And he left <05800> (8799) the oxen <01241>, and ran <07323> (8799) after <0310> Elijah <0452> , and said <0559> (8799), Let me, I pray thee, kiss <05401> (8799) my father <01> and my mother <0517>, and then I will follow <03212> (8799) <0310> thee. And he said <0559> (8799) unto him, Go back <03212> (8798) again <07725> (8798): for what have I done <06213> (8804) to thee?
21 And he returned back <07725> (8799) from him <0310>, and took <03947> (8799) a yoke <06776> of oxen <01241>, and slew <02076> (8799) them, and boiled <01310> (8765) their flesh <01320> with the instruments <03627> of the oxen <01241>, and gave <05414> (8799) unto the people <05971>, and they did eat <0398> (8799). Then he arose <06965> (8799), and went <03212> (8799) after <0310> Elijah <0452>, and ministered <08334> (8762) unto him.
