2 Kings 2:11-15
11And as they were walkingH1980 along and talkingH1696, beholdH2009, 1a chariotH7393 of fireH784 appeared with horsesH5483 of fireH784, and they separatedH6504 the twoH8147 of them. Then ElijahH452 wentH5927 upH5927 by a 2whirlwindH5591 to heavenH8064. 12And ElishaH477 was watchingH7200 it and he was cryingH6817 outH6817, “3My fatherH1, my fatherH1, the chariotH7393 of IsraelH3478 and its horsemenH6571!” And he did not seeH7200 4Elijah againH5750. Then 5he tookH2388 holdH2388 of his own clothesH899 and toreH7167 them in twoH8147 piecesH7168. 13He also tookH7311 upH7311 the coatH155 of ElijahH452 that had fallenH5307 from him, and he wentH7725 backH7725 and stoodH5975 by the bankH8193 of the JordanH3383. 14Then he tookH3947 the coatH155 of ElijahH452 that had fallenH5307 from him and struckH5221 the watersH4325, and saidH559, “WhereH346 is the LordH3068, the GodH430 of ElijahH452?” And when he alsoH637 had 6struckH5221 the watersH4325, they were dividedH2673 hereH2008 and thereH2008; and ElishaH477 crossedH5674 overH5674.
15Now when 7the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 whoH834 were at JerichoH3405 oppositeH4480H5048 him sawH7200 him, they saidH559, “The spiritH7307 of ElijahH452 has settledH5117 on ElishaH477.” And they cameH935 to meetH7122 him and bowedH2331 downH2331 to the groundH776 before him.
