1 Reis 18

41 Elijah told Ahab, "Go and eat and drink, for I hear the sound of a heavy rain coming." 42 So Ahab went to eat and drink, but Elijah went to the top of Carmel. There he bent down to the ground, putting his face between his knees.

43 "Go and look toward the sea," he told his servant. The man went and looked. "There’s nothing there," he said. Seven times Elijah told him, "Go and look again."

44 The seventh time the servant came back and said, "I saw a small cloud the size of a man’s hand coming up from the sea." So Elijah said, "Run to Ahab and tell him, ‘Get your chariot ready and go down before the rain stops you.’"

45 Very quickly the sky grew dark with clouds, the wind blew, heavy rain started falling, and Ahab rode down to Jezreel. 46 The Lord gave his power to Elijah—he tucked his cloak into his belt and ran ahead of Ahab all the way to Jezreel.
