1 Reis 18

41 Now Elijah said to Ahab, "Go up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of the roar of a heavy shower." 42 So Ahab went up to eat and drink. But Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he bent down to the earth and put his face between his knees. 43 And he said to his servant, "Go up now, look toward the sea." So he went up and looked, but he said, "There is nothing." Yet Elijah said, "Go back" seven times. 44 And when he returned the seventh time, he said, "Behold, a cloud as small as a person’s hand is coming up from the sea." And Elijah said, "Go up, say to Ahab, ‘Harness your chariot horses and go down, so that the heavy shower does not stop you.’ " 45 Meanwhile the sky became dark with clouds and wind came up, and there was a heavy shower. And Ahab rode and went to Jezreel. 46 Then the hand of the Lord was on Elijah, and he *18:46 I.e., for travelbelted his cloak around his waist and *18:46 Lit ran ahead ofoutran Ahab *18:46 Lit until your coming toto Jezreel.
