1 Just before the LORD took Elijah up to heaven in a windstorm, Elijah and Elisha were traveling from Gilgal. 2 Elijah told Elisha, |Stay here, for the LORD has sent me to Bethel.| But Elisha said, |As certainly as the LORD lives and as you live, I will not leave you.| So they went down to Bethel. 3 Some members of the prophetic guild in Bethel came out to Elisha and said, |Do you know that today the LORD is going to take your master from you?| He answered, |Yes, I know. Be quiet.| 2 Kings 2:1-3, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
