1 Kings 19:9-21

9Then he cameH935 thereH8033 to a caveH4631 and lodgedH3885 thereH8033; and beholdH2009, 1the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 came to him, and He saidH559 to him, “WhatH4100 are you doing hereH6311, ElijahH452?” 10He saidH559, “2I have beenH7065 veryH7065 zealousH7065 for the LordH3068, the GodH430 of hostsH6635; for the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 have forsakenH5800 Your covenantH1285, 3tornH2040 downH2040 Your altarsH4196 and killedH2026 Your prophetsH5030 with the swordH2719. And 4I aloneH905 am leftH3498; and they seekH1245 my lifeH5315, to takeH3947 it away.”

11So He saidH559, “5GoH3318 forthH3318 and standH5975 on the mountainH2022 beforeH6440 the LordH3068.” And beholdH2009, the LordH3068 was passingH5674 by! And 6a greatH1419 and strongH2389 windH7307 was rendingH6561 the mountainsH2022 and breakingH7665 in piecesH7665 the rocksH5553 beforeH6440 the LordH3068; but the LordH3068 was not in the windH7307. And afterH310 the windH7307 an earthquakeH7494, but the LordH3068 was not in the earthquakeH7494. 12AfterH310 the earthquakeH7494 a fireH784, but the LordH3068 was not in the fireH784; and afterH310 the fireH784 7a soundH6963 of a gentleH1851 blowingH1827. 13When ElijahH452 heardH8085 it, 8he wrappedH3874 his faceH6440 in his mantleH155 and wentH3318 out and stoodH5975 in the entranceH6607 of the caveH4631. And beholdH2009, 9a voiceH6963 came to him and saidH559, “WhatH4100 are you doing hereH6311, ElijahH452?” 14Then he saidH559, “10I have beenH7065 veryH7065 zealousH7065 for the LordH3068, the GodH430 of hostsH6635; for the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 have forsakenH5800 Your covenantH1285, tornH2040 downH2040 Your altarsH4196 and killedH2026 Your prophetsH5030 with the swordH2719. And I aloneH905 am leftH3498; and they seekH1245 my lifeH5315, to takeH3947 it away.”

15The LordH3068 saidH559 to him, “GoH1980, returnH7725 on your wayH1870 to the wildernessH4057 of DamascusH1834, and when you have arrivedH935, 11you shall anointH4886 HazaelH2371 kingH4428 overH5921 AramH758; 16and 12JehuH3058 the sonH1121 of NimshiH5250 you shall anointH4886 kingH4428 overH5921 IsraelH3478; and 13ElishaH477 the sonH1121 of ShaphatH8202 of Abel-meholahH65 you shall anointH4886 as prophetH5030 in your placeH8478. 17It shall comeH1961 about, the 14one who escapesH4422 from the swordH2719 of HazaelH2371, JehuH3058 15shall putH4191 to deathH4191, and the one who escapesH4422 from the swordH2719 of JehuH3058, ElishaH477 shall putH4191 to deathH4191. 1816Yet I will leaveH7604 7,000H7651H505 in IsraelH3478, allH3605 the kneesH1290 that have not bowedH3766 to BaalH1168 and everyH3605 mouthH6310 that has not 17kissedH5401 him.”

19So he departedH1980 from thereH8033 and foundH4672 ElishaH477 the sonH1121 of ShaphatH8202, while he was plowingH2790 with twelveH8147H6240 pairsH6776 of oxen beforeH6440 him, and he with the twelfthH8147H6240. And ElijahH452 passedH5674 overH5674 to him and threwH7993 18his mantleH155 on him. 20He leftH5800 the oxenH1241 and ranH7323 afterH310 ElijahH452 and saidH559, “PleaseH4994 19let me kissH5401 my fatherH1 and my motherH517, then I will followH1980H310 you.” And he saidH559 to him, “GoH1980 backH7725 againH7725, for whatH4100 have I doneH6213 to you?” 21So he returnedH7725 from followingH310 him, and tookH3947 the pairH6776 of oxenH1241 and sacrificedH2076 them and 20boiledH1310 their fleshH1320 with the implementsH3627 of the oxenH1241, and gaveH5414 it to the peopleH5971 and they ateH398. Then he aroseH6965 and followedH1980H310 ElijahH452 and ministeredH8334 to him.
