1 Kings 19:1-8 - Elijah Flees To Horeb

¹ And Ahab will announce to Jezebel all that Elijah did, and all how he killed all the prophets with the sword. ² And Jezebel will send a messenger to Elijah, saying, Thus will God do and thus will he add that according to the time to-morrow I will set thy soul as the soul of one of them.

³ And he will see and arise, and go for his soul, and he will come to the Well of the Oath which was to Judah, and he will leave his boy there. ⁴ And he went into the desert the way of a day, and he will come and sit under one broom-tree: and he will ask for his soul to die: and he will say, Much now, O Jehovah, Take my soul, for I am not good above my fathers. ⁵ And he will lie down and sleep udder one broom-tree, and behold, then a messenger touched upon him, and he will say to him, Arise, eat ⁶ And he will look, and behold, from his head cakes baked on hot stones, and a cruse of water: and he will eat and drink, and turn back and lie down. ⁷ And the messenger of Jehovah will turn back the second time, and he will touch upon him, and say, Arise, eat, for much for thee the way. ⁸ And he will rise and eat and drink, and go in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights, even to the mountain of God, Horeb.
