1 Kings 19:11–18

11 And he said, Go forth, and stand kupon the mount before the Lord. And, behold, the Lord passed by, and la great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the Lord was not in the earthquake: 12 And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a mstill small voice. 13 And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that nhe wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. oAnd, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah? 14 pAnd he said, I have been very jealous for the Lord God of hosts: because the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away. 15 And the Lord said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of qDamascus: and when thou comest, ranoint Hazael to be king over Syria: 16 And sJehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel: and *Elisha the son of Shaphat of tAbel-meholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy room. 17 And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth the sword of uHazael shall xJehu slay: and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu yshall Elisha slay. 18 Yet z||I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and aevery mouth which hath not kissed him.
