11:019:011 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the
           lord.  And, behold, the lord passed by, and a 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: 

11:019:012 And after the earthquake a fire; but the lord was not in the
           fire:  and after the fire a still small voice.

11:019:013 And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face
           in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of
           the cave.  And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said,
           What doest thou here, Elijah?

11:019:014 And 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.

11:019:015 And the lord said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the
           wilderness of Damascus:  and when thou comest, anoint Hazael to
           be king over Syria: 

11:019:016 And Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over
           Israel:  and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abelmeholah shalt
           thou anoint to be prophet in thy room.

11:019:017 And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth the sword of
           Hazael shall Jehu slay:  and him that escapeth from the sword
           of Jehu shall Elisha slay.

11:019:018 Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees
           which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not
           kissed him.

11:019:019 So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat,
           who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he
           with the twelfth:  and Elijah passed by him, and cast his
           mantle upon him.

11:019:020 And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me,
           I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will
           follow thee.  And he said unto him, Go back again:  for what
           have I done to thee?

11:019:021 And he returned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen, and
           slew them, and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the
           oxen, and gave unto the people, and they did eat.  Then he
           arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto him.

11:020:001 And Benhadad the king of Syria gathered all his host together: 
           and there were thirty and two kings with him, and horses, and
           chariots; and he went up and besieged Samaria, and warred
           against it.
