And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, As Jehovah the God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, except by my word.

And Elijah said, As Jehovah of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, I will certainly shew myself to him to-day.

and the priests could not stand to do their service because of the cloud; for the glory of Jehovah had filled the house of Jehovah.

Happy are thy men! happy are these thy servants, who stand continually before thee, who hear thy wisdom!
