1 Kings 19:2-6 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

2. Izeḇel sent a messenger to Ěliyahu, saying, “So let the mighty ones do to me, and more also, if I do not make your life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time.”

3. And he feared, and rose up and ran for his life, and went to Be’ĕrsheḇa, which belongs to Yehuḏah, and left his servant there.

4. But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom tree, and prayed that he might die, and said, “It is enough! Now, יהוה, take my life, for I am no better than my fathers!”

5. And he lay and slept under a broom tree, and see, a messenger touched him, and said to him, “Rise, eat.”

6. And he looked and saw by his head a cake baked on coals, and a jar of water. So he ate and drank, and turned and lay down.
