2 Kings 2:6-8 ▼

6 Then Elijah said to him, “Please stay here, for Yahweh has sent me to the Jordan.” And he said, “As Yahweh lives and as your soul lives, I will not forsake you.” So the two of them went on.

7 Now fifty men of the sons of the prophets went and stood opposite them at a distance, but the two of them stood by the Jordan.

8 And Elijah took his mantle and folded it together and struck the waters, and they were divided here and there, so that the two of them crossed over on dry ground.
