1 Kings 19:13-17

13And it came to pass, when ElijahH452 heardH8085 it, that he wrapped his faceH6440 in his mantle, and wentH3318 out, and stoodH5975 in the entranceH6607 of the caveH4631. And behold, a voiceH6963 [came] to him and saidH559, What doest thou hereH6311, ElijahH452?

14And he saidH559, I have been very jealousH7065 for Jehovah the 1GodH430 of hostsH6635; for the children of IsraelH3478 have forsaken thy covenantH1285, thrown downH2040 thine altarsH4196, and slainH2026 thy prophetsH5030 with the swordH2719; and I am leftH3498, I aloneH905, and they seekH1245 my lifeH5315, to takeH3947 it awayH3947.

15And Jehovah saidH559 to him, GoH935, returnH7725 on thy wayH1870 to the wildernessH4057 of DamascusH1834; and when thou comest, anointH4886 HazaelH2371 kingH4428 over Syria;

16and JehuH3058 the sonH1121 of NimshiH5250 shalt thou anointH4886 kingH4428 over IsraelH3478; and ElishaH477 the sonH1121 of ShaphatH8202 of Abel-meholahH65 shalt thou anointH4886 prophetH5030 in thy stead.

17And it shall come to pass, [that] him that escapeth the swordH2719 of HazaelH2371 shall JehuH3058 slay; and him that escapeth the swordH2719 of JehuH3058 shall ElishaH477 slay.
