ELIJAH, 1. The Tishbite, a Gileadite and prophet, called ELIAS in the
10. He said, "I have been very jealous for The LORD, the God of Armies; for the children of Israel have forsaken your covenant, thrown down your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword. I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away."
11. He said, "Go out, and stand on the mountain before The LORD."Behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind tore the mountains, and broke in pieces the rocks before The LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake.
12. After the earthquake a fire passed; but the LORD was not in the fire. After the fire, there was a still small voice.
13. When ELIJAH heard it, he wrapped his face in his mantle, went out, and stood in the entrance of the cave. Behold, a voice came to him, and said, "What are you doing here, ELIJAH?"
14. He said, "I have been very jealous for The LORD, the God of Armies; for the children of Israel have forsaken your covenant, thrown down your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword. I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away."
