H3068
And it came to pass, when the LORD
H5927 [H8687]
would take up
H452
Elijah
H8064
into heaven
H5591
by a whirlwind
H452
, that Elijah
H3212 [H8799]
went
H477
with Elisha
H1537
from Gilgal.
2
H452
And Elijah
H559 [H8799]
said
H477
to Elisha
H3427 [H8798]
, Tarry
H3068
here, I pray thee; for the LORD
H7971 [H8804]
hath sent
H1008
me to Bethel
H477
. And Elisha
H559 [H8799]
said
H3068
As the LORD
H2416
liveth
H5315
, and as thy soul
H2416
liveth
H5800 [H8799]
, I will not leave
H3381 [H8799]
thee. So they went down
H1008
to Bethel.
3
H1121
And the sons
H5030
of the prophets
H1008
that were at Bethel
H3318 [H8799]
came forth
H477
to Elisha
H559 [H8799]
, and said
H3045 [H8804]
to him, Knowest
H3068
thou that the LORD
H3947 [H8802]
will take away
H113
thy master
H7218
from thy head
H3117
to day
H559 [H8799]
? And he said
H3045 [H8804]
, Yea, I know
H2814 [H8685]
it; hold ye your peace.
4
H452
And Elijah
H559 [H8799]
said
H477
to him, Elisha
H3427 [H8798]
, tarry
H3068
here, I pray thee; for the LORD
H7971 [H8804]
hath sent
H3405
me to Jericho
H559 [H8799]
. And he said
H3068
, As the LORD
H2416
liveth
H5315
, and as thy soul
H2416
liveth
H5800 [H8799]
, I will not leave
H935 [H8799]
thee. So they came
H3405
to Jericho.
5
H1121
And the sons
H5030
of the prophets
H3405
that were at Jericho
H5066 [H8799]
came
H477
to Elisha
H559 [H8799]
, and said
H3045 [H8804]
to him, Knowest
H3068
thou that the LORD
H3947 [H8802]
will take away
H113
thy master
H7218
from thy head
H3117
to day
H559 [H8799]
? And he answered
H3045 [H8804]
, Yea, I know
H2814 [H8685]
it; hold ye your peace.
6
H452
And Elijah
H559 [H8799]
said
H3427 [H8798]
to him, Tarry here
H3068
, I pray thee; for the LORD
H7971 [H8804]
hath sent
H3383
me to Jordan
H559 [H8799]
. And he said
H3068
, As the LORD
H2416
liveth
H5315
, and as thy soul
H2416
liveth
H5800 [H8799]
, I will not leave
H8147
thee. And they two
H3212 [H8799]
went on.
7
H2572
And fifty
H376
men
H1121
of the sons
H5030
of the prophets
H1980 [H8804]
went
H5975 [H8799]
, and stood
H5048
to view
H7350
afar off
H8147
: and they two
H5975 [H8804]
stood
H3383
by Jordan.
8
H452
And Elijah
H3947 [H8799]
took
H155
his mantle
H1563 [H8799]
, and wrapped it together
H5221 [H8686]
, and smote
H4325
the waters
H2673 [H8735]
, and they were divided
H8147
to the one side and to the other, so that they two
H5674 [H8799]
went over
H2724
on dry ground.
9
H5674 [H8800]
And it came to pass, when they had gone over
H452
, that Elijah
H559 [H8804]
said
H477
to Elisha
H7592 [H8798]
, Ask
H6213 [H8799]
what I shall do
H3947 [H8735]
for thee, before I am taken away
H477
from thee. And Elisha
H559 [H8799]
said
H8147
, I pray thee, let a double
H6310
portion
H7307
of thy spirit be upon me.
10
H559 [H8799]
And he said
H7592 [H8800]
, Thou hast asked
H7185 [H8689]
a hard thing
H7200 [H8799]
: nevertheless, if thou shalt see
H3947 [H8795]
me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so to thee; but if not, it shall not be so.
11
H1980 [H8800]
And it came to pass, as they still
H1980 [H8802]
went on
H1696 [H8763]
, and talked
H7393
, that, behold, there appeared a chariot
H784
of fire
H5483
, and horses
H784
of fire
H6504 [H8686]
, and separated
H8147 H996
them
H452
; and Elijah
H5927 [H8799]
went up
H5591
by a whirlwind
H8064
into heaven.
12
H477
And Elisha
H7200 [H8802]
saw
H6817 [H8764]
it, and he cried
H1
, My father
H1
, my father
H7393
, the chariot
H3478
of Israel
H6571
, and its horsemen
H7200 [H8804]
. And he saw
H2388 [H8686]
him no more: and he took hold
H899
of his own clothes
H7167 [H8799]
, and tore
H8147
them in two
H7168
pieces.
13
H7311 [H8686]
He took up
H155
also the mantle
H452
of Elijah
H5307 [H8804]
that fell
H7725 [H8799]
from him, and went back
H5975 [H8799]
, and stood
H8193
by the bank
H3383
of Jordan;
14
H3947 [H8799]
And he took
H155
the mantle
H452
of Elijah
H5307 [H8804]
that fell
H5221 [H8686]
from him, and smote
H4325
the waters
H559 [H8799]
, and said
H3068
, Where is the LORD
H430
God
H452
of Elijah
H5221 [H8686]
? and when he also had smitten
H4325
the waters
H2673 [H8735]
, they parted
H477
to the one side and to the other: and Elisha
H5674 [H8799]
went over.
15
H1121
And when the sons
H5030
of the prophets
H3405
who were looking on at Jericho
H7200 [H8799]
saw
H559 [H8799]
him, they said
H7307
, The spirit
H452
of Elijah
H5117 [H8804]
doth rest
H477
on Elisha
H935 [H8799]
. And they came
H7125 [H8800]
to meet
H7812 [H8691]
him, and bowed
H776
themselves to the ground before him.
