1 Kings 18:41-45

41Now ElijahH452 saidH559 to AhabH256, “GoH5927 up, eatH398 and drinkH8354; for there is the soundH6963 of the roarH1995 of a heavy showerH1653.”

42So AhabH256 wentH5927 up to eatH398 and drinkH8354. But ElijahH452 wentH5927 up to the topH7218 of 1CarmelH3760; and he 2crouchedH1457 downH1457 on the earthH776 and putH7760 his faceH6440 betweenH996 his kneesH1290.

43He saidH559 to his servantH5288, “GoH5927 up nowH4994, lookH5027 towardH1870 the seaH3220.” So he wentH5927 up and lookedH5027 and saidH559, “ThereH369 is nothingH369H3972.” And he saidH559, “GoH7725 backH7725” sevenH7651 timesH6471.

44It cameH1961 about at the seventhH7637 time, that he saidH559, “BeholdH2009, 3a cloudH5645 as smallH6996 as a man’sH376 handH3709 is comingH5927 up from the seaH3220.” And he saidH559, “GoH5927 up, sayH559 to AhabH256, ‘4PrepareH631 your chariot and goH3381 downH3381, so that the heavy showerH1653 does not stopH6113 you.’”

45In a littleH5704H3541 whileH5704H3541 the skyH8064 grewH6937 blackH6937 with cloudsH5645 and windH7307, and there was a heavyH1419 showerH1653. And AhabH256 rodeH7392 and wentH1980 to 5JezreelH3157.
