Now Elijah ^H452 the Tishbite ^H8664, who was of [fn]the settlers ^H8453 of Gilead ^H1568, said ^H559 to Ahab ^H256, “As Yahweh ^H3068, the God ^H430 of Israel ^H3478, lives ^H2416, before ^H6440 whom ^H834 I stand ^H5975, surely ^H518 there shall be neither ^H518 dew ^H2919 nor rain ^H4306 these ^H428 years ^H8141, except ^H3588 H518 by my word ^H1697.”

Now it happened ^H1961 after many ^H7227 days ^H3117 that the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068 came ^H1961 to Elijah ^H452 in the third ^H7992 year ^H8141, saying ^H559, “Go ^H1980, show ^H7200 yourself to Ahab ^H256, and I will send ^H5414 rain ^H4306 on the face ^H6440 of the earth ^H127.”

Now it happened that as Obadiah ^H5662 was on the way ^H1870, behold ^H2009, Elijah ^H452 [fn]met ^H7122 him, and he recognized ^H5234 him and fell ^H5307 on his face ^H6440 and said ^H559, “Is this ^H2088 you, Elijah ^H452 my master ^H113?”

So Elijah ^H452 said ^H559 to the prophets ^H5030 of Baal ^H1168, “Choose ^H977 one ^H259 ox ^H6499 for yourselves and prepare ^H6213 it first ^H7223 for you are many ^H7227, and call ^H7121 on the name ^H8034 of your god ^H430, but place ^H7760 no ^H3808 fire ^H784 under it.”

Then Elijah ^H452 said ^H559 to all ^H3605 the people ^H5971, “Come ^H5066 near ^H5066 to me.” So all ^H3605 the people ^H5971 came ^H5066 near ^H5066 to him. And he repaired ^H7495 the altar ^H4196 of Yahweh ^H3068 which had been pulled ^H2040 down ^H2040.

Now Ahab ^H256 told ^H5046 Jezebel ^H348 all ^H3605 that Elijah ^H452 had done ^H6213, and [fn]how ^H834 he had killed ^H2026 all ^H3605 the prophets ^H5030 with the sword ^H2719.

Then he came ^H935 there ^H8033 to a cave ^H4631 and lodged ^H3885 there ^H8033; and behold ^H2009, the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068 came to him, and He said ^H559 to him, “What ^H4100 are you doing here ^H6311, Elijah ^H452?”

So he went ^H1980 from there ^H8033 and found ^H4672 Elisha ^H477 the son ^H1121 of Shaphat ^H8202, while he was plowing ^H2790 with twelve ^H8147 H6240 pairs ^H6776 of oxen before ^H6440 him, and he with the twelfth ^H8147 H6240. And Elijah ^H452 passed ^H5674 over ^H5674 to him and threw ^H7993 his mantle ^H155 on him.

Then the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068 came ^H1961 to Elijah ^H452 the Tishbite ^H8664, saying ^H559,

And Ahab ^H256 said ^H559 to Elijah ^H452, “Have you found ^H4672 me, O my enemy ^H340?” And he [fn]answered ^H559, “I have found ^H4672 you, because ^H3282 you have sold ^H4376 yourself to do ^H6213 what ^H7451 is evil ^H7451 in the sight ^H5869 of Yahweh ^H3068.

So Ahaziah died ^H4191 according to the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068 which ^H834 Elijah ^H452 had spoken ^H1696. And because ^H3588 he had ^H1961 no ^H3808 son ^H1121, Jehoram ^H3088 became ^H4427 king ^H4427 in ^H8478 his place ^H8478 in ^H8478 the second ^H8147 year ^H8141 of Jehoram ^H3088 the son ^H1121 of Jehoshaphat ^H3092, king ^H4428 of Judah ^H3063.

Now it happened ^H1961 when Yahweh ^H3068 was about ^H1961 to take ^H5927 up ^H5927 Elijah ^H452 by a [fn]whirlwind ^H5591 to heaven ^H8064, that Elijah ^H452 went ^H1980 with Elisha ^H477 from Gilgal ^H1537.

And Elijah ^H452 said ^H559 to him, “Elisha ^H477, please ^H4994 stay ^H3427 here ^H6311, for Yahweh ^H3068 has sent ^H7971 me to Jericho ^H3405.” But he said ^H559, “As Yahweh ^H3068 lives ^H2416 and as your soul ^H5315 lives ^H2416, I will not forsake ^H5800 you.” So they came ^H935 to Jericho ^H3405.
