2: And sentH7971 JezebelH0348 a messengerH4397 toH0413 Elijah,H0452 saying,H0559 soH3541 let do [to me]H6213 the godsH0430 and also,H3541 moreH3254 ifH3588 about this time.H6256 By tomorrowH4279 I do makeH7760 notH0853 your lifeH5315 as the lifeH5315 of oneH0259 of them.H1992

3: And when he saw [that]H7200 and he arose,H6965 and ranH1980 forH0413 his life,H5315 and wentH0935 Beersheba,H0884 which [belongs]H0834 to Judah,H3063 and leftH3240 -H0853 his servantH5288 there.H8033

4: But heH1931 wentH1980 into the wilderness,H4057 journeyH1870 of a dayH3117 and cameH0935 and sat downH3427 underH8478 broom tree-H7574 aH0259 and he prayedH7592 -H0853 for himselfH5315 that he might die-H4191 and said,H0559 it is enough-H7227 now,H6258 Yahweh,H3068 takeH3947 my life-H5315 forH3588 noH3808 betterH2896 I [am]H0595 than my fathers.H0001

5: And as he layH7901 and sleptH3462 underH8478 broom tree,H7574 aH0259 and behold,H2009 thisH2088 an angelH4397 touchedH5060 and saidH0559 AriseH6965 [and] eat.H0398

6: And he looked,H5027 and there [was],H2009 by his head.H4763 A cakeH5692 [baked] on coals,H7529 and a jarH6835 of waterH4325 so he ateH0398 and drank,H8354 and againH7725 and lay down.H7901

7: And came backH7725 the angelH4397 of YahwehH3068 the second [time],H8145 and touchedH5060 and said,H0559 AriseH6965 [and] eat-H0398 becauseH3588 too greatH7227 for youH4480 the journey [is].H1870

8: So he arose,H6965 and ateH0398 and drank,H8354 and he wentH1980 in the strengthH3581 of foodH0396 thatH1931 fortyH0705 daysH3117 and fortyH0705 nightsH3915 as far asH5704 the mountainH2022 of GodH0430 Horeb.H2722

9: And he wentH0935 thereH8033 intoH0413 a cave,H4631 and spent the nightH3885 in that place-H8033 and behold,H2009 the wordH1697 of YahwehH3068 [came] to himH0413 and He saidH0559 whatH4100 here,H6311 Elijah?H0452

10: so he said,H0559 veryH7065 I have been zealousH7065 for YahwehH3069 GodH0430 of hosts-H6635 forH3588 have forsakenH5800 Your covenant,H1285 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 -H0853 Your altars,H4196 torn downH2040 andH0853 Your prophetsH5030 killedH2026 with the sword-H2719 and am left-H3498 I,H0589 alone,H0905 and they seekH1245 -H0853 my life,H5315 to take.H3947

11: And He said,H0559 go out,H3318 and standH5975 on the mountainH2022 beforeH6440 Yahweh.H3068 And behold,H2009 YahwehH3068 passed by,H5674 and a windH7307 greatH1419 and mightyH2389 tore intoH6561 the mountains,H2022 and broke in piecesH7665 the rocksH5553 beforeH6440 Yahweh-H3068 [but] notH3808 in the wind.H7307 Yahweh [was]H3068 and afterH0310 the windH7307 an earthquake-H7494 notH3808 in the earthquakeH7494 [but] Yahweh [was].H3068

12: And afterH0310 the earthquakeH7494 a fire-H0784 notH3808 in the fire-H0784 [but] Yahweh [was]H3068 and afterH0310 the fireH0784 a voiceH6963 stillH1827 small.H1851

13: So it wasH1961 when heard [it]H8085 ElijahH0452 that he wrappedH3874 his faceH6440 in his cloak,H0155 and went out,H3318 and stoodH5975 in the entranceH6607 of the cave.H4631 And suddenly,H2009 to himH0413 a voice [came]H6963 and said,H0559 whatH4100 here,H6311 Elijah?H0452

14: and he said,H0559 veryH7065 I have been zealousH7065 for YahwehH3068 GodH0430 of hosts-H6635 becauseH3588 have forsakenH5800 Your covenant,H1285 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 -H0853 Your altars,H4196 torn downH2040 andH0853 Your prophetsH5030 killedH2026 with the sword-H2719 and am left-H3498 I,H0589 alone,H0905 and they seekH1245 -H0853 my life,H5315 to take.H3947

15: And saidH0559 YahwehH3068 to himH0413 go,H1980 returnH7725 on your wayH1870 to the WildernessH4057 of Damascus,H1834 and when you arrive,H0935 and anointH4886 -H0853 HazaelH2371 [as] kingH4428 overH5921 Syria-H0758

16: andH0853 JehuH3058 sonH1121 of NimshiH5250 you shall anointH4886 [as] kingH4428 overH5921 Israel-H3478 andH0853 ElishaH0477 sonH1121 of ShaphatH8202 Abel MeholahH0065 you shall anointH4886 [as] prophetH5030 in your place.H8478

17: And it shall be,H1961 [that] whoever escapesH4422 the swordH2719 of HazaelH2371 will kill-H4191 JehuH3058 and whoever escapesH4422 the swordH2719 of JehuH3058 will killH4191 Elisha.H0477

18: And yet I have reservedH7604 in Israel,H3478 sevenH7651 thousandH0505 allH3605 kneesH1290 whoseH0834 notH3808 have bowedH3766 to Baal,H1168 and everyH3605 mouthH6310 thatH0834 notH3808 has kissedH5401

19: So he departedH1980 from there,H8033 and foundH4672 -H0853 ElishaH0477 sonH1121 of Shaphat,H8202 and heH1931 [was] plowingH2790 twoH8147 [and] tenH6240 [with] yoke [of oxen]H6776 before himH6440 and he [was]H1931 with twoH8147 and ten-H6240 and passedH5674 ElijahH0452 by himH0413 and threwH7993 his cloakH0155 on him.H0413

20: And he leftH5800 -H0853 the oxen,H1241 and ranH7323 afterH0310 Elijah,H0452 and said,H0559 let me kissH5401 please,H4994 my fatherH0001 and my mother,H0517 and [then] I will followH1980 youH0310 and he saidH0559 goH1980 back again-H7725 forH3588 whatH4100 have I doneH6213

21: So [Elisha] turned backH7725 from himH0310 and tookH3947 -H0853 a yokeH6776 of oxen,H1241 and slaughtered themH2076 and using equipmentH3627 of the oxen,H1241 and boiledH1310 their fleshH1320 and gave [it]H5414 to the people,H5971 and they ate.H0398 And he arose,H6965 and followedH1980 afterH0310 Elijah,H0452 and became his servant.H8334
