1 Kings 19

KJV

1  And Ahab256 told5046 Jezebel348 853 all3605 that834 Elijah452 had done,6213 and withal3605 how834 he had slain2026 853 all3605 the prophets5030 with the sword.2719

2  Then Jezebel348 sent7971 a messenger4397 unto413 Elijah,452 saying,559 So3541 let the gods430 do6213 to me, and more3254 also,3541 if3588 I make7760 not 853 thy life5315 as the life5315 of one259 of4480 them by tomorrow4279 about this time.6256

3  And when he saw7200 that, he arose,6965 and went1980 for413 his life,5315 and came935 to Beer-sheba,884 which834 belongeth to Judah,3063 and left5117 853 his servant5288 there.8033

4  But he himself1931 went1980 a day's3117 journey1870 into the wilderness,4057 and came935 and sat down3427 under8478 a259 juniper tree:7574 and he requested7592 853 for himself5315 that he might die;4191 and said,559 It is enough;7227 now,6258 O LORD,3068 take away3947 my life;5315 for3588 I595 am not3808 better2896 than my fathers.4480 1

5  And as he lay7901 and slept3462 under8478 a259 juniper tree,7574 behold,2009 then2088 an angel4397 touched5060 him, and said559 unto him, Arise6965 and eat.398

6  And he looked,5027 and, behold,2009 there was a cake5692 baked on the coals,7529 and a cruse6835 of water4325 at his head.4763 And he did eat398 and drink,8354 and laid him down7901 again.7725

7  And the angel4397 of the LORD3068 came again7725 the second time,8145 and touched5060 him, and said,559 Arise6965 and eat;398 because3588 the journey1870 is too great7227 for4480 thee.

8  And he arose,6965 and did eat398 and drink,8354 and went1980 in the strength3581 of that1931 meat396 forty705 days3117 and forty705 nights3915 unto5704 Horeb2722 the mount2022 of God.430

9  And he came935 thither8033 unto413 a cave,4631 and lodged3885 there;8033 and, behold,2009 the word1697 of the LORD3068 came to413 him, and he said559 unto him, What4100 doest thou here,6311 Elijah?452

10  And he said,559 I have been very jealous7065 7065 for the LORD3068 God430 of hosts:6635 for3588 the children1121 of Israel3478 have forsaken5800 thy covenant,1285 thrown down2040 853 thine altars,4196 and slain2026 thy prophets5030 with the sword;2719 and I,589 even I only,905 am left;3498 and they seek1245 853 my life,5315 to take it away.3947

11  And he said,559 Go forth,3318 and stand5975 upon the mount2022 before6440 the LORD.3068 And, behold,2009 the LORD3068 passed by,5674 and a great1419 and strong2389 wind7307 rent6561 the mountains,2022 and broke in pieces7665 the rocks5553 before6440 the LORD;3068 but the LORD3068 was not3808 in the wind:7307 and after310 the wind7307 an earthquake;7494 but the LORD3068 was not3808 in the earthquake:7494

12  And after310 the earthquake7494 a fire;784 but the LORD3068 was not3808 in the fire:784 and after310 the fire784 a still1827 small1851 voice.6963

13  And it was1961 so, when Elijah452 heard8085 it, that he wrapped3874 his face6440 in his mantle,155 and went out,3318 and stood5975 in the entering in6607 of the cave.4631 And, behold,2009 there came a voice6963 unto413 him, and said,559 What4100 doest thou here,6311 Elijah?452

14  And he said,559 I have been very jealous7065 7065 for the LORD3068 God430 of hosts:6635 because3588 the children1121 of Israel3478 have forsaken5800 thy covenant,1285 thrown down2040 853 thine altars,4196 and slain2026 thy prophets5030 with the sword;2719 and I,589 even I only,905 am left;3498 and they seek1245 853 my life,5315 to take it away.3947

15  And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 him, Go,1980 return7725 on thy way1870 to the wilderness4057 of Damascus:1834 and when thou comest,935 anoint4886 853 Hazael2371 to be king4428 over5921 Syria:758

16  And Jehu3058 the son1121 of Nimshi5250 shalt thou anoint4886 to be king4428 over5921 Israel:3478 and Elisha477 the son1121 of Shaphat8202 of Abel-meholah4480 65 shalt thou anoint4886 to be prophet5030 in thy room.8478

17  And it shall come to pass,1961 that him that escapeth4422 the sword4480 2719 of Hazael2371 shall Jehu3058 slay:4191 and him that escapeth4422 from the sword4480 2719 of Jehu3058 shall Elisha477 slay.4191

18  Yet I have left7604 me seven7651 thousand505 in Israel,3478 all3605 the knees1290 which834 have not3808 bowed3766 unto Baal,1168 and every3605 mouth6310 which834 hath not3808 kissed5401 him.

19  So he departed1980 thence,4480 8033 and found4672 853 Elisha477 the son1121 of Shaphat,8202 who1931 was plowing2790 with twelve8147 6240 yoke6776 of oxen before6440 him, and he1931 with the twelfth:8147 6240 and Elijah452 passed5674 by413 him, and cast7993 his mantle155 upon413 him.

20  And he left5800 853 the oxen,1241 and ran7323 after310 Elijah,452 and said,559 Let me, I pray thee,4994 kiss5401 my father1 and my mother,517 and then I will follow1980 310 thee. And he said559 unto him, Go1980 back again:7725 for3588 what4100 have I done6213 to thee?

21  And he returned back7725 from4480 310 him, and took3947 853 a yoke6776 of oxen,1241 and slew2076 them, and boiled1310 their flesh1320 with the instruments3627 of the oxen,1241 and gave5414 unto the people,5971 and they did eat.398 Then he arose,6965 and went1980 after310 Elijah,452 and ministered8334 unto him.

1 καὶ ἀνήγγειλεν Αχααβ τῇ Ιεζαβελ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ πάντα ἃ ἐποίησεν Ηλιου καὶ ὡς ἀπέκτεινεν τοὺς προφήτας ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ

2 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ιεζαβελ πρὸς Ηλιου καὶ εἶπεν εἰ σὺ εἶ Ηλιου καὶ ἐγὼ Ιεζαβελ τάδε ποιήσαι μοι ὁ θεὸς καὶ τάδε προσθείη ὅτι ταύτην τὴν ὥραν αὔριον θήσομαι τὴν ψυχήν σου καθὼς ψυχὴν ἑνὸς ἐξ αὐτῶν

3 καὶ ἐφοβήθη Ηλιου καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἀπῆλθεν κατὰ τὴν ψυχὴν ἑαυτοῦ καὶ ἔρχεται εἰς Βηρσαβεε τὴν Ιουδα καὶ ἀφῆκεν τὸ παιδάριον αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ

4 καὶ αὐτὸς ἐπορεύθη ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ὁδὸν ἡμέρας καὶ ἦλθεν καὶ ἐκάθισεν ὑπὸ ραθμ ἓν καὶ ᾐτήσατο τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἀποθανεῖν καὶ εἶπεν ἱκανούσθω νῦν λαβὲ δὴ τὴν ψυχήν μου ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ κύριε ὅτι οὐ κρείσσων ἐγώ εἰμι ὑπὲρ τοὺς πατέρας μου

5 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη καὶ ὕπνωσεν ἐκεῖ ὑπὸ φυτόν καὶ ἰδού τις ἥψατο αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἀνάστηθι καὶ φάγε

6 καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν Ηλιου καὶ ἰδοὺ πρὸς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ ἐγκρυφίας ὀλυρίτης καὶ καψάκης ὕδατος καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἔφαγεν καὶ ἔπιεν καὶ ἐπιστρέψας ἐκοιμήθη

7 καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν ὁ ἄγγελος κυρίου ἐκ δευτέρου καὶ ἥψατο αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἀνάστα φάγε ὅτι πολλὴ ἀπὸ σοῦ ἡ ὁδός

8 καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἔφαγεν καὶ ἔπιεν καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν τῇ ἰσχύι τῆς βρώσεως ἐκείνης τεσσαράκοντα ἡμέρας καὶ τεσσαράκοντα νύκτας ἕως ὄρους Χωρηβ

9 καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ἐκεῖ εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον καὶ κατέλυσεν ἐκεῖ καὶ ἰδοὺ ῥῆμα κυρίου πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν τί σὺ ἐνταῦθα Ηλιου

10 καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου ζηλῶν ἐζήλωκα τῷ κυρίῳ παντοκράτορι ὅτι ἐγκατέλιπόν σε οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ τὰ θυσιαστήριά σου κατέσκαψαν καὶ τοὺς προφήτας σου ἀπέκτειναν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ καὶ ὑπολέλειμμαι ἐγὼ μονώτατος καὶ ζητοῦσι τὴν ψυχήν μου λαβεῖν αὐτήν

11 καὶ εἶπεν ἐξελεύσῃ αὔριον καὶ στήσῃ ἐνώπιον κυρίου ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἰδοὺ παρελεύσεται κύριος καὶ πνεῦμα μέγα κραταιὸν διαλῦον ὄρη καὶ συντρῖβον πέτρας ἐνώπιον κυρίου οὐκ ἐν τῷ πνεύματι κύριος καὶ μετὰ τὸ πνεῦμα συσσεισμός οὐκ ἐν τῷ συσσεισμῷ κύριος

12 καὶ μετὰ τὸν συσσεισμὸν πῦρ οὐκ ἐν τῷ πυρὶ κύριος καὶ μετὰ τὸ πῦρ φωνὴ αὔρας λεπτῆς κἀκεῖ κύριος

13 καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἤκουσεν Ηλιου καὶ ἐπεκάλυψεν τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ μηλωτῇ ἑαυτοῦ καὶ ἐξῆλθεν καὶ ἔστη ὑπὸ τὸ σπήλαιον καὶ ἰδοὺ πρὸς αὐτὸν φωνὴ καὶ εἶπεν τί σὺ ἐνταῦθα Ηλιου

14 καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου ζηλῶν ἐζήλωκα τῷ κυρίῳ παντοκράτορι ὅτι ἐγκατέλιπον τὴν διαθήκην σου οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ τὰ θυσιαστήριά σου καθεῖλαν καὶ τοὺς προφήτας σου ἀπέκτειναν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ καὶ ὑπολέλειμμαι ἐγὼ μονώτατος καὶ ζητοῦσι τὴν ψυχήν μου λαβεῖν αὐτήν

15 καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς αὐτόν πορεύου ἀνάστρεφε εἰς τὴν ὁδόν σου καὶ ἥξεις εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν ἐρήμου Δαμασκοῦ καὶ χρίσεις τὸν Αζαηλ εἰς βασιλέα τῆς Συρίας

16 καὶ τὸν Ιου υἱὸν Ναμεσσι χρίσεις εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ισραηλ καὶ τὸν Ελισαιε υἱὸν Σαφατ ἀπὸ Αβελμαουλα χρίσεις εἰς προφήτην ἀντὶ σοῦ

17 καὶ ἔσται τὸν σῳζόμενον ἐκ ῥομφαίας Αζαηλ θανατώσει Ιου καὶ τὸν σῳζόμενον ἐκ ῥομφαίας Ιου θανατώσει Ελισαιε

18 καὶ καταλείψεις ἐν Ισραηλ ἑπτὰ χιλιάδας ἀνδρῶν πάντα γόνατα ἃ οὐκ ὤκλασαν γόνυ τῷ Βααλ καὶ πᾶν στόμα ὃ οὐ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ

19 καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἐκεῖθεν καὶ εὑρίσκει τὸν Ελισαιε υἱὸν Σαφατ καὶ αὐτὸς ἠροτρία ἐν βουσίν δώδεκα ζεύγη βοῶν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν τοῖς δώδεκα καὶ ἐπῆλθεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν καὶ ἐπέρριψε τὴν μηλωτὴν αὐτοῦ ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν

20 καὶ κατέλιπεν Ελισαιε τὰς βόας καὶ κατέδραμεν ὀπίσω Ηλιου καὶ εἶπεν καταφιλήσω τὸν πατέρα μου καὶ ἀκολουθήσω ὀπίσω σου καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου ἀνάστρεφε ὅτι πεποίηκά σοι

21 καὶ ἀνέστρεψεν ἐξόπισθεν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔλαβεν τὰ ζεύγη τῶν βοῶν καὶ ἔθυσεν καὶ ἥψησεν αὐτὰ ἐν τοῖς σκεύεσι τῶν βοῶν καὶ ἔδωκεν τῷ λαῷ καὶ ἔφαγον καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὀπίσω Ηλιου καὶ ἐλειτούργει αὐτῷ

1 Nuntiavit autem Achab Jezabel omnia quæ fecerat Elias, et quomodo occidisset universos prophetas gladio.

2 Misitque Jezabel nuntium ad Eliam, dicens: Hæc mihi faciant dii, et hæc addant, nisi hac hora cras posuero animam tuam sicut animam unius ex illis.

3 Timuit ergo Elias, et surgens abiit quocumque eum ferebat voluntas: venitque in Bersabee Juda, et dimisit ibi puerum suum,

4 et perrexit in desertum, viam unius diei. Cumque venisset, et sederet subter unam juniperum, petivit animæ suæ ut moreretur, et ait: Sufficit mihi, Domine: tolle animam meam: neque enim melior sum quam patres mei.

5 Projecitque se, et obdormivit in umbra juniperi: et ecce angelus Domini tetigit eum, et dixit illi: Surge, et comede.

6 Respexit, et ecce ad caput suum subcinericius panis, et vas aquæ: comedit ergo, et bibit, et rursum obdormivit.

7 Reversusque est angelus Domini secundo, et tetigit eum, dixitque illi: Surge, comede: grandis enim tibi restat via.

8 Qui cum surrexisset, comedit et bibit, et ambulavit in fortitudine cibi illius quadraginta diebus et quadraginta noctibus usque ad montem Dei Horeb.

9 Cumque venisset illuc, mansit in spelunca: et ecce sermo Domini ad eum, dixitque illi: Quid hic agis, Elia?

10 At ille respondit: Zelo zelatus sum pro Domino Deo exercituum, quia dereliquerunt pactum tuum filii Israël: altaria tua destruxerunt, prophetas tuos occiderunt gladio, derelictus sum ego solus, et quærunt animam meam ut auferant eam.

11 Et ait ei: Egredere, et sta in monte coram Domino: et ecce Dominus transit. Et spiritus grandis et fortis subvertens montes, et conterens petras, ante Dominum: non in spiritu Dominus. Et post spiritum commotio: non in commotione Dominus.

12 Et post commotionem ignis: non in igne Dominus. Et post ignem sibilus auræ tenuis.

13 Quod cum audisset Elias, operuit vultum suum pallio, et egressus stetit in ostio speluncæ. Et ecce vox ad eum dicens: Quid hic agis, Elia? Et ille respondit:

14 Zelo zelatus sum pro Domino Deo exercituum, quia dereliquerunt pactum tuum filii Israël: altaria tua destruxerunt, prophetas tuos occiderunt gladio, derelictus sum ego solus, et quærunt animam meam ut auferant eam.

15 Et ait Dominus ad eum: Vade, et revertere in viam tuam per desertum in Damascum: cumque perveneris illuc, unges Hazaël regem super Syriam,

16 et Jehu filium Namsi unges regem super Israël: Eliseum autem filium Saphat, qui est de Abelmehula, unges prophetam pro te.

17 Et erit: quicumque fugerit gladium Hazaël, occidet eum Jehu: et quicumque fugerit gladium Jehu, interficiet eum Eliseus.

18 Et derelinquam mihi in Israël septem millia virorum, quorum genua non sunt incurvata ante Baal, et omne os quod non adoravit eum osculans manus.

19 Profectus ergo inde Elias, reperit Eliseum filium Saphat, arantem in duodecim jugis boum. Et ipse in duodecim jugis boum arantibus unus erat: cumque venisset Elias ad eum, misit pallium suum super illum.

20 Qui statim relictis bobus cucurrit post Eliam, et ait: Osculer, oro, patrem meum, et matrem meam, et sic sequar te. Dixitque ei: Vade, et revertere: quod enim meum erat, feci tibi.

21 Reversus autem ab eo, tulit par boum, et mactavit illud, et in aratro boum coxit carnes, et dedit populo, et comederunt: consurgensque abiit, et secutus est Eliam, et ministrabat ei.
