2 Elijah instructed Elisha, |Remain here on this side, please, because the LORD is sending me as far as Bethel.| But Elisha replied, |As the LORD lives, I'm not going to leave you while you're still alive!| So they both went on to Bethel. 3 When the Guild of Prophets who lived in Bethel came out to greet Elisha, they asked him, |You are aware, aren't you, that later today the LORD is going to remove your master from being your mentor?| |Of course I'm aware of it,| he said. |Calm down.| 4 Elijah also spoke to him, |Elisha, remain here on this side, please, because the LORD is sending me to Jericho.| But Elisha responded, |As the LORD lives, and while you're still alive, I'm not going to leave you!| So they went to Jericho. 5 The Guild of Prophets who lived in Jericho approached Elisha and asked him, |You are aware, aren't you, that later today the LORD is going to remove your master from being your mentor?| |Of course I'm aware of it,| he said. |Calm down.| 2 Kings 2:2-5, Intl.
