1 Kings 19:16-19
16You are also to anointH853H4886 JehuH3058 sonH11211 of NimshiH5250 as kingH4428 overH5921 IsraelH3478 and ElishaH477 sonH1121 of ShaphatH8202 from Abel-meholahH65H4886 to succeed youH8478 as prophetH5030.
17ThenH1961 JehuH3058 will put to deathH4191 whoever escapesH4422 the swordH2719 of HazaelH2371, and ElishaH477 will put to deathH4191 whoever escapesH4422 the swordH2719 of JehuH3058.
18Nevertheless, I have reservedH7604 sevenH7651 thousandH505 in IsraelH3478—allH3605 whoseH834 kneesH1290 have notH3808 bowedH3766 to BaalH11682 andH3605 whose mouthsH6310 have notH3808 kissedH5401 him.”
19So Elijah departedH1980H8033 and foundH4672 ElishaH477 sonH1121 of ShaphatH8202. HeH1931 was plowingH2790 with twelveH8147H6240 teamsH6776 of oxen, and heH1931 was with the twelfthH8147H6240 team. ElijahH452 passedH5674 by himH413 and threwH7993 his cloakH155 around himH413.
