2 Kings 2:6-8
6And Elijah said unto him, Tarry, I pray thee, here; for Yhwh hath sent me to Jordan. And he said, As Yhwh liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And they two went on.
7And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood to view afar off: and they two stood by Jordan.1
8And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.
