2 Kings 2:1-8

1Now it cameH1961 aboutH1961, when the LordH3068 was about to 1bringH5927 ElijahH452 upH5927 by a 2whirlwindH5591 to heavenH8064, that ElijahH452 leftH1980H4480 3GilgalH1537 with 4ElishaH477. 2And ElijahH452 saidH559 to ElishaH477, “5StayH3427 hereH6311 pleaseH4994, for the LordH3068 has sentH7971 me as farH5704 as 6BethelH1008.” But ElishaH477 saidH559, “7As surely as the LordH3068 livesH2416 and as you yourselfH5315 liveH2416, I will not leaveH5800 you.” So they wentH3381 downH3381 to BethelH1008. 3Then 8the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 whoH834 were at BethelH1008 wentH3318 outH3318 to ElishaH477 and saidH559 to him, “AreH3045 you awareH3045 that the LordH3068 will takeH3947 away your masterH113 from overH5921 9you todayH3117?” And he saidH559, “YesH1571, I amH3045 awareH3045; sayH2814 nothingH2814 about it.”

4And ElijahH452 saidH559 to him, “ElishaH477, pleaseH4994 10stayH3427 hereH6311, for the LordH3068 has sentH7971 me to 11JerichoH3405.” But he saidH559, “12As surely as the LordH3068 livesH2416, and as you yourselfH5315 liveH2416, I will not leaveH5800 you.” So they cameH935 to JerichoH3405. 5Then 13the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 whoH834 were at JerichoH3405 approachedH5066 ElishaH477 and saidH559 to him, “14Do you knowH3045 that the LordH3068 will takeH3947 away your masterH113 from overH5921 15you todayH3117?” And he 16answeredH559, “YesH1571, I knowH3045; sayH2814 nothingH2814 about it.” 6And ElijahH452 saidH559 to him, “PleaseH4994 17stayH3427 hereH6311, for the LordH3068 has sentH7971 me to 18the JordanH3383.” But he saidH559, “As surely as the LordH3068 livesH2416, and as you yourselfH5315 liveH2416, I will not leaveH5800 you.” So the twoH8147 of them wentH1980 on.

7Now 19fiftyH2572 menH376 of the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 wentH1980 and stoodH5975 oppositeH4480H5048 them at a distanceH7350, while the twoH8147 of them stoodH5975 by the JordanH3383. 8And ElijahH452 20tookH3947 his coatH155, foldedH1563 it, and 21struckH5221 the watersH4325, and they were dividedH2673 hereH2008 and thereH2008, so that the twoH8147 of them crossedH5674 overH5674 on dryH2724 groundH2724.
