2 Elijah said to Elisha, |Please wait here, for the LORD has sent me as far as Bethel.| Elisha said, |As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.| So they went down to Bethel. 3 The sons of the prophets who were at Bethel came out to Elisha, and said to him, |Do you know that the LORD will take away your master from your head today?| He said, |Yes, I know it; hold your peace.| 4 Elijah said to him, |Elisha, please wait here, for the LORD has sent me to Jericho.| He said, |As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.| So they came to Jericho. 5 The sons of the prophets who were at Jericho came near to Elisha, and said to him, |Do you know that the LORD will take away your master from your head today?| He answered, |Yes, I know it.
