1 Kings 19:2-4

2Then JezebelH348 sentH7971 a messengerH4397 unto ElijahH452, sayingH559, So let the godsH430 doH6213 to me, and moreH3254 also, if I makeH7760 not thy lifeH5315 as the lifeH5315 of oneH259 of them by to morrowH4279 about this timeH6256. 3And when he sawH7200 that, he aroseH6965, and wentH3212 for his lifeH5315, and cameH935 to Beer–shebaH884, which belongeth to JudahH3063, and leftH3240 his servantH5288 there.

4But he himself wentH1980 a day’sH3117 journeyH1870 into the wildernessH4057, and cameH935 and sat downH3427 under aH259 juniper treeH7574: and he requestedH7592 for himselfH5315 that he might dieH4191; and saidH559, It is enoughH7227; now, O YhwhH3068, take awayH3947 my lifeH5315; for I am not betterH2896 than my fathersH1.1
