And saw him no more: and therefore took his own clothes and rent them in two pieces. 13 And then he took up the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back again and stood by Jordan's side, 14 and took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the water and said, "Where is the LORD God of Elijah? Where is he?" And when he had smitten the water it divided part this way and part that way, and Elisha went over.
