19:1 And
Ahab
declareth
to
Jezebel
all
that
Elijah
did,
and
all
how
he
slew
all
the
prophets
by
the
sword,
19:2 and
Jezebel
sendeth
a
messenger
unto
Elijah,
saying,
`Thus
doth
the
gods,
and
thus
do
they
add,
surely
about
this
time
to-morrow,
I
make
thy
life
as
the
life
of
one
of
them.'
19:3 And
he
feareth,
and
riseth,
and
goeth
for
his
life,
and
cometh
in
to
Beer-Sheba,
that
[is]
Judah's,
and
leaveth
his
young
man
there,
19:4 and
he
himself
hath
gone
into
the
wilderness
a
day's
Journey,
and
cometh
and
sitteth
under
a
certain
retem-tree,
and
desireth
his
soul
to
die,
and
saith,
`Enough,
now,
O
Jehovah,
take
my
soul,
for
I
[am]
not
better
than
my
fathers.'
19:5 And
he
lieth
down
and
sleepeth
under
a
certain
retem-tree,
and
lo,
a
messenger
cometh
against
him,
and
saith
to
him,
`Rise,
eat;'
19:6 and
he
looketh
attentively,
and
lo,
at
his
bolster
a
cake
[baken
on]
burning
stones,
and
a
dish
of
water,
and
he
eateth,
and
drinketh,
and
turneth,
and
lieth
down.
19:7 And
the
messenger
of
Jehovah
turneth
back
a
second
time,
and
cometh
against
him,
and
saith,
`Rise,
eat,
for
the
way
is
too
great
for
thee;'
19:8 and
he
riseth,
and
eateth,
and
drinketh,
and
goeth
in
the
power
of
that
food
forty
days
and
forty
nights,
unto
the
mount
of
God--Horeb.
19:9 And
he
cometh
in
there,
unto
the
cave,
and
lodgeth
there,
and
lo,
the
word
of
Jehovah
[is]
unto
him,
and
saith
to
him,
`What--to
thee,
here,
Elijah'
19:10 And
he
saith,
`I
have
been
very
zealous
for
Jehovah,
God
of
Hosts,
for
the
sons
of
Israel
have
forsaken
Thy
covenant--Thine
altars
they
have
thrown
down,
and
Thy
prophets
they
have
slain
by
the
sword,
and
I
am
left,
I,
by
myself,
and
they
seek
my
life--to
take
it.'
19:11 And
He
saith,
`Go
out,
and
thou
hast
stood
in
the
mount
before
Jehovah.'
And
lo,
Jehovah
is
passing
by,
and
a
wind--great
and
strong--is
rending
mountains,
and
shivering
rocks
before
Jehovah:
--not
in
the
wind
[is]
Jehovah;
and
after
the
wind
a
shaking:
--not
in
the
shaking
[is]
Jehovah;
19:12 and
after
the
shaking
a
fire:
--not
in
the
fire
[is]
Jehovah;
and
after
the
fire
a
voice
still
small;
19:13 and
it
cometh
to
pass,
at
Elijah's
hearing
[it]
,
that
he
wrappeth
his
face
in
his
robe,
and
goeth
out,
and
standeth
at
the
opening
of
the
cave,
and
lo,
unto
him
[is]
a
voice,
and
it
saith,
`What--to
thee,
here,
Elijah'
19:14 And
he
saith,
`I
have
been
very
zealous
for
Jehovah,
God
of
Hosts;
for
the
sons
of
Israel
have
forsaken
Thy
covenant,
Thine
altars
they
have
thrown
down,
and
Thy
prophets
they
have
slain
by
the
sword,
and
I
am
left,
I,
by
myself,
and
they
seek
my
life--to
take
it.'
19:15 And
Jehovah
saith
unto
him,
`Go
turn
back
on
thy
way
to
the
wilderness
of
Damascus,
and
thou
hast
gone
in,
and
anointed
Hazael
for
king
over
Aram,
19:16 and
Jehu
son
of
Nimshi
thou
dost
anoint
for
king
over
Israel,
and
Elisha
son
of
Shaphat,
of
Abel-Meholah,
thou
dost
anoint
for
prophet
in
thy
stead.
19:17 `And
it
hath
been,
him
who
is
escaped
from
the
sword
of
Hazael,
put
to
death
doth
Jehu,
and
him
who
is
escaped
from
the
sword
of
Jehu
put
to
death
doth
Elisha;
19:18 and
I
have
left
in
Israel
seven
thousand,
all
the
knees
that
have
not
bowed
to
Baal,
and
every
mouth
that
hath
not
kissed
him.'
19:19 And
he
goeth
thence,
and
findeth
Elisha
son
of
Shaphat,
and
he
is
plowing;
twelve
yoke
[are]
before
him,
and
he
[is]
with
the
twelfth;
and
Elijah
passeth
over
unto
him,
and
casteth
his
robe
upon
him,
19:20 and
he
forsaketh
the
oxen,
and
runneth
after
Elijah,
and
saith,
`Let
me
give
a
kiss,
I
pray
thee,
to
my
father
and
to
my
mother,
and
I
go
after
thee.'
And
he
saith
to
him,
`Go,
turn
back,
for
what
have
I
done
to
thee'
19:21 And
he
turneth
back
from
after
him,
and
taketh
the
yoke
of
oxen,
and
sacrificeth
it,
and
with
instruments
of
the
oxen
he
hath
boiled
their
flesh,
and
giveth
to
the
people,
and
they
eat,
and
he
riseth,
and
goeth
after
Elijah,
and
serveth
him.
