  1. 1And it came to pass after many days, that the word of the LORD came to Elijah in the third year, saying, Go, shew thyself unto Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth.וַיְהִי֙ יָמִ֣ים רַבִּ֔ים וּדְבַר יְהוָ֗ה הָיָה֙ אֶל אֵ֣לִיָּ֔הוּ בַּשָּׁנָ֥ה הַשְּׁלִישִׁ֖ית לֵאמֹ֑ר לֵ֚ךְ הֵרָאֵ֣ה אֶל אַחְאָ֔ב וְאֶתְּנָ֥ה מָטָ֖ר עַל פְּנֵ֥י הָאֲדָמָֽה
  2. 2And Elijah went to shew himself unto Ahab. And there was a sore famine in Samaria.וַיֵּ֨לֶךְ֙ אֵֽלִיָּ֔הוּ לְהֵרָא֖וֹת אֶל אַחְאָ֑ב וְהָרָעָ֖ב חָזָ֥ק בְּשֹׁמְרֽוֹן
  3. 3And Ahab called Obadiah, which was the governor of his house. (Now Obadiah feared the LORD greatly:וַיִּקְרָ֣א אַחְאָ֔ב אֶל עֹבַדְיָ֖הוּ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עַל הַבָּ֑יִת וְעֹבַדְיָ֗הוּ הָיָ֥ה יָרֵ֛א אֶת יְהוָ֖ה מְאֹֽד
  4. 4For it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the LORD, that Obadiah took an hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.)וַיְהִי֙ בְּהַכְרִ֣ית אִיזֶ֔בֶל אֵ֖ת נְבִיאֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה וַיִּקַּ֨ח עֹבַדְיָ֜הוּ מֵאָ֣ה נְבִאִ֗ים וַֽיַּחְבִּיאֵ֞ם חֲמִשִּׁ֥ים אִישׁ֙ בַּמְּעָרָ֔ה וְכִלְכְּלָ֖ם לֶ֥חֶם וָמָֽיִם
  5. 5And Ahab said unto Obadiah, Go into the land, unto all fountains of water, and unto all brooks: peradventure we may find grass to save the horses and mules alive, that we lose not all the beasts.וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אַחְאָב֙ אֶל עֹ֣בַדְיָ֔הוּ לֵ֤ךְ בָּאָ֨רֶץ֙ אֶל כָּל מַעְיְנֵ֣י הַמַּ֔יִם וְאֶ֖ל כָּל הַנְּחָלִ֑ים אוּלַ֣י נִמְצָ֣א חָצִ֗יר וּנְחַיֶּה֙ ס֣וּס וָפֶ֔רֶד וְל֥וֹא נַכְרִ֖ית מֵהַבְּהֵמָֽה
  6. 6So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself.וַֽיְחַלְּק֥וּ אֶת הָאָ֖רֶץ לַֽעֲבָר אַחְאָ֞ב הָלַ֨ךְ בְּדֶ֤רֶךְ אֶחָד֙ לְבַדּ֔וֹ וְעֹֽבַדְיָ֛הוּ הָלַ֥ךְ בְּדֶרֶךְ אֶחָ֖ד לְבַדּֽוֹ
  7. 7And as Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said, Art thou that my lord Elijah?וַיְהִ֤י עֹבַדְיָ֨הוּ֙ בַּדֶּ֔רֶךְ וְהִנֵּ֥ה אֵלִיָּ֖הוּ לִקְרָאת֑וֹ וַיַּכִּרֵ֨הוּ֙ וַיִּפֹּ֣ל עַל פָּנָ֔יו וַיֹּ֕אמֶר הַאַתָּ֥ה זֶ֖ה אֲדֹנִ֥י אֵלִיָּֽהוּ
  8. 8And he answered him, I am: go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here.וַיֹּ֥אמֶר אָ֑נִי לֵ֛ךְ אֱמֹ֥ר לַאדֹנֶ֖יךָ הִנֵּ֥ה אֵלִיָּֽהוּ
  9. 9And he said, What have I sinned, that thou wouldest deliver thy servant into the hand of Ahab, to slay me?וַיֹּ֖אמֶר מֶ֣ה חָטָ֑אתִי כִּֽי אַתָּ֞ה נֹתֵ֧ן אֶֽת עַבְדְּךָ֛ בְּיַד אַחְאָ֖ב לַהֲמִיתֵֽנִי
  10. 10As the LORD thy God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee: and when they said, He is not there; he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they found thee not.חַ֣י יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֗יךָ אִם יֶשׁ גּ֤וֹי וּמַמְלָכָה֙ אֲ֠שֶׁר לֹֽא שָׁלַ֨ח אֲדֹנִ֥י שָׁם֙ לְבַקֶּשְׁךָ֔ וְאָמְר֖וּ אָ֑יִן וְהִשְׁבִּ֤יעַ אֶת הַמַּמְלָכָה֙ וְאֶת הַגּ֔וֹי כִּ֖י לֹ֥א יִמְצָאֶֽכָּה
  11. 11And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here.וְעַתָּ֖ה אַתָּ֣ה אֹמֵ֑ר לֵ֛ךְ אֱמֹ֥ר לַאדֹנֶ֖יךָ הִנֵּ֥ה אֵלִיָּֽהוּ
  12. 12And it shall come to pass, as soon as I am gone from thee, that the Spirit of the LORD shall carry thee whither I know not; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he cannot find thee, he shall slay me: but I thy servant fear the LORD from my youth.וְהָיָ֞ה אֲנִ֣י אֵלֵ֣ךְ מֵאִתָּ֗ךְ וְר֨וּחַ יְהוָ֤ה יִֽשָּׂאֲךָ֙ עַ֚ל אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹֽא אֵדָ֔ע וּבָ֨אתִי לְהַגִּ֧יד לְאַחְאָ֛ב וְלֹ֥א יִֽמְצָאֲךָ֖ וַהֲרָגָ֑נִי וְעַבְדְּךָ֛ יָרֵ֥א אֶת יְהוָ֖ה מִנְּעֻרָֽי
  13. 13Was it not told my lord what I did when Jezebel slew the prophets of the LORD, how I hid an hundred men of the LORD'S prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water?הֲלֹֽא הֻגַּ֤ד לַֽאדֹנִי֙ אֵ֣ת אֲשֶׁר עָשִׂ֔יתִי בַּהֲרֹ֣ג אִיזֶ֔בֶל אֵ֖ת נְבִיאֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה וָאַחְבִּא֩ מִנְּבִיאֵ֨י יְהוָ֜ה מֵ֣אָה אִ֗ישׁ חֲמִשִּׁ֨ים חֲמִשִּׁ֥ים אִישׁ֙ בַּמְּעָרָ֔ה וָאֲכַלְכְּלֵ֖ם לֶ֥חֶם וָמָֽיִם
  14. 14And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here: and he shall slay me.וְעַתָּה֙ אַתָּ֣ה אֹמֵ֔ר לֵ֛ךְ אֱמֹ֥ר לַֽאדֹנֶ֖יךָ הִנֵּ֣ה אֵלִיָּ֑הוּ וַהֲרָגָֽנִי
  15. 15And Elijah said, As the LORD of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, I will surely shew myself unto him to day.וַיֹּ֨אמֶר֙ אֵֽלִיָּ֔הוּ חַ֚י יְהוָ֣ה צְבָא֔וֹת אֲשֶׁ֥ר עָמַ֖דְתִּי לְפָנָ֑יו כִּ֥י הַיּ֖וֹם אֵרָאֶ֥ה אֵלָֽיו
  16. 16So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him: and Ahab went to meet Elijah.וַיֵּ֧לֶךְ עֹבַדְיָ֛הוּ לִקְרַ֥את אַחְאָ֖ב וַיַּגֶּד וַיֵּ֥לֶךְ אַחְאָ֖ב לִקְרַ֥את אֵלִיָּֽהוּ
  17. 17And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel?וַיְהִ֛י כִּרְא֥וֹת אַחְאָ֖ב אֶת אֵלִיָּ֑הוּ וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אַחְאָב֙ אֵלָ֔יו הַאַתָּ֥ה זֶ֖ה עֹכֵ֥ר יִשְׂרָאֵֽל
  18. 18And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the LORD, and thou hast followed Baalim.וַיֹּ֗אמֶר לֹ֤א עָכַ֨רְתִּי֙ אֶת יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל כִּ֥י אִם אַתָּ֖ה וּבֵ֣ית אָבִ֑יךָ בַּֽעֲזָבְכֶם֙ אֶת מִצְוֺ֣ת יְהוָ֔ה וַתֵּ֖לֶךְ אַחֲרֵ֥י הַבְּעָלִֽים
  19. 19Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel's table.וְעַתָּ֗ה שְׁלַ֨ח קְבֹ֥ץ אֵלַ֛י אֶת כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל אֶל הַ֣ר הַכַּרְמֶ֑ל וְאֶת נְבִיאֵ֨י הַבַּ֜עַל אַרְבַּ֧ע מֵא֣וֹת וַחֲמִשִּׁ֗ים וּנְבִיאֵ֤י הָֽאֲשֵׁרָה֙ אַרְבַּ֣ע מֵא֔וֹת אֹכְלֵ֖י שֻׁלְחַ֥ן אִיזָֽבֶל
  20. 20So Ahab sent unto all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together unto mount Carmel.וַיִּשְׁלַ֥ח אַחְאָ֖ב בְּכָל בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וַיִּקְבֹּ֥ץ אֶת הַנְּבִיאִ֖ים אֶל הַ֥ר הַכַּרְמֶֽל
  21. 21And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.וַיִּגַּ֨שׁ אֵלִיָּ֜הוּ אֶל כָּל הָעָ֗ם וַיֹּ֨אמֶר֙ עַד מָתַ֞י אַתֶּ֣ם פֹּסְחִים֮ עַל שְׁתֵּ֣י הַסְּעִפִּים֒ אִם יְהוָ֤ה הָֽאֱלֹהִים֙ לְכ֣וּ אַחֲרָ֔יו וְאִם הַבַּ֖עַל לְכ֣וּ אַחֲרָ֑יו וְלֹֽא עָנ֥וּ הָעָ֛ם אֹת֖וֹ דָּבָֽר
  22. 22Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the LORD; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men.וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֵלִיָּ֨הוּ֙ אֶל הָעָ֔ם אֲנִ֞י נוֹתַ֧רְתִּי נָבִ֛יא לַיהוָ֖ה לְבַדִּ֑י וּנְבִיאֵ֣י הַבַּ֔עַל אַרְבַּע מֵא֥וֹת וַחֲמִשִּׁ֖ים אִֽישׁ
  23. 23Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under:וְיִתְּנוּ שְׁנַ֣יִם פָּרִ֗ים וְיִבְחֲר֣וּ הַפָּ֨ר הָאֶחָ֜ד וִֽינַתְּחֻ֗הוּ וְיָשִׂ֨ימוּ֙ עַל הָ֣עֵצִ֔ים וְאֵ֖שׁ לֹ֣א יָשִׂ֑ימוּ וַאֲנִ֞י אֶעֱשֶׂ֣ה אֶת הַפָּ֣ר הָאֶחָ֗ד וְנָֽתַתִּי֙ עַל הָ֣עֵצִ֔ים וְאֵ֖שׁ לֹ֥א אָשִֽׂים
  24. 24And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken.וּקְרָאתֶ֞ם בְּשֵׁ֣ם אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶ֗ם וַֽאֲנִי֙ אֶקְרָ֣א בְשֵׁם יְהוָ֔ה וְהָיָ֧ה הָאֱלֹהִ֛ים אֲשֶׁר יַעֲנֶ֥ה בָאֵ֖שׁ ה֣וּא הָאֱלֹהִ֑ים וַיַּ֧עַן כָּל הָעָ֛ם וַיֹּאמְר֖וּ ט֥וֹב הַדָּבָֽר
  25. 25And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many; and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under.וַיֹּ֨אמֶר אֵלִיָּ֜הוּ לִנְבִיאֵ֣י הַבַּ֗עַל בַּחֲר֨וּ הַפָּ֤ר הָֽאֶחָד֙ וַעֲשׂ֣וּ רִאשֹׁנָ֔ה כִּ֥י אַתֶּ֖ם הָרַבִּ֑ים וְקִרְאוּ֙ בְּשֵׁ֣ם אֱלֹהֵיכֶ֔ם וְאֵ֖שׁ לֹ֥א תָשִֽׂימוּ
  26. 26And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made.וַ֠יִּקְחוּ אֶת הַפָּ֨ר אֲשֶׁר נָתַ֣ן וַֽיַּעֲשׂוּ֒ וַיִּקְרְא֣וּ בְשֵׁם הַ֠בַּעַל מֵהַבֹּ֨קֶר וְעַד הַצָּהֳרַ֤יִם לֵאמֹר֙ הַבַּ֣עַל עֲנֵ֔נוּ וְאֵ֥ין ק֖וֹל וְאֵ֣ין עֹנֶ֑ה וַֽיְפַסְּח֔וּ עַל הַמִּזְבֵּ֖חַ אֲשֶׁ֥ר עָשָֽׂה
  27. 27And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked.וַיְהִ֨י בַֽצָּהֳרַ֜יִם וַיְהַתֵּ֧ל אֵלִיָּ֗הוּ וַיֹּ֨אמֶר֙ קִרְא֤וּ בְקוֹל גָּדוֹל֙ כִּֽי אֱלֹהִ֣ים ה֔וּא כִּ֣י שִׂ֧יחַ וְכִֽי שִׂ֛יג וְכִֽי דֶ֣רֶךְ אוּלַ֛י יָשֵׁ֥ן ה֖וּא וְיִקָֽץ
  28. 28And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them.וַֽיִּקְרְאוּ֙ בְּק֣וֹל גָּד֔וֹל וַיִּתְגֹּֽדְדוּ֙ כְּמִשְׁפָּטָ֔ם בַּחֲרָב֖וֹת וּבָֽרְמָחִ֑ים עַד שְׁפָךְ דָּ֖ם עֲלֵיהֶֽם
  29. 29And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded.וַֽיְהִי֙ כַּעֲבֹ֣ר הַֽצָּהֳרַ֔יִם וַיִּֽתְנַבְּא֔וּ עַ֖ד לַעֲל֣וֹת הַמִּנְחָ֑ה וְאֵֽין ק֥וֹל וְאֵין עֹנֶ֖ה וְאֵ֥ין קָֽשֶׁב
  30. 30And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that was broken down.וַיֹּ֨אמֶר אֵלִיָּ֤הוּ לְכָל הָעָם֙ גְּשׁ֣וּ אֵלַ֔י וַיִּגְּשׁ֥וּ כָל הָעָ֖ם אֵלָ֑יו וַיְרַפֵּ֛א אֶת מִזְבַּ֥ח יְהוָ֖ה הֶהָרֽוּס
  31. 31And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the LORD came, saying, Israel shall be thy name:וַיִּקַּ֣ח אֵלִיָּ֗הוּ שְׁתֵּ֤ים עֶשְׂרֵה֙ אֲבָנִ֔ים כְּמִסְפַּ֖ר שִׁבְטֵ֣י בְנֵֽי יַעֲקֹ֑ב אֲשֶׁר֩ הָיָ֨ה דְבַר יְהוָ֤ה אֵלָיו֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל יִהְיֶ֥ה שְׁמֶֽךָ
  32. 32And with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.וַיִּבְנֶ֧ה אֶת הָאֲבָנִ֛ים מִזְבֵּ֖חַ בְּשֵׁ֣ם יְהוָ֑ה וַיַּ֣עַשׂ תְּעָלָ֗ה כְּבֵית֙ סָאתַ֣יִם זֶ֔רַע סָבִ֖יב לַמִּזְבֵּֽחַ
  33. 33And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid him on the wood, and said, Fill four barrels with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice, and on the wood.וַֽיַּעֲרֹ֖ךְ אֶת הָֽעֵצִ֑ים וַיְנַתַּח֙ אֶת הַפָּ֔ר וַיָּ֖שֶׂם עַל הָעֵצִֽים
  34. 34And he said, Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he said, Do it the third time. And they did it the third time.וַיֹּ֗אמֶר מִלְא֨וּ אַרְבָּעָ֤ה כַדִּים֙ מַ֔יִם וְיִֽצְק֥וּ עַל הָעֹלָ֖ה וְעַל הָעֵצִ֑ים וַיֹּ֤אמֶר שְׁנוּ֙ וַיִּשְׁנ֔וּ וַיֹּ֥אמֶר שַׁלֵּ֖שׁוּ וַיְשַׁלֵּֽשׁוּ
  35. 35And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water.וַיֵּלְכ֣וּ הַמַּ֔יִם סָבִ֖יב לַמִּזְבֵּ֑חַ וְגַ֥ם אֶת הַתְּעָלָ֖ה מִלֵּא מָֽיִם
  36. 36And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word.וַיְהִ֣י בַּעֲל֣וֹת הַמִּנְחָ֗ה וַיִּגַּ֞שׁ אֵלִיָּ֣הוּ הַנָּבִיא֮ וַיֹּאמַר֒ יְהוָ֗ה אֱלֹהֵי֙ אַבְרָהָם֙ יִצְחָ֣ק וְיִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל הַיּ֣וֹם יִוָּדַ֗ע כִּֽי אַתָּ֧ה אֱלֹהִ֛ים בְּיִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל וַאֲנִ֣י עַבְדֶּ֑ךָ ובדבריך וּבִדְבָרְךָ֣ עָשִׂ֔יתִי אֵ֥ת כָּל הַדְּבָרִ֖ים הָאֵֽלֶּה
  37. 37Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the LORD God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again.עֲנֵ֤נִי יְהוָה֙ עֲנֵ֔נִי וְיֵֽדְעוּ֙ הָעָ֣ם הַזֶּ֔ה כִּֽי אַתָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה הָאֱלֹהִ֑ים וְאַתָּ֛ה הֲסִבֹּ֥תָ אֶת לִבָּ֖ם אֲחֹרַנִּֽית
  38. 38Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.וַתִּפֹּ֣ל אֵשׁ יְהוָ֗ה וַתֹּ֤אכַל אֶת הָֽעֹלָה֙ וְאֶת הָ֣עֵצִ֔ים וְאֶת הָאֲבָנִ֖ים וְאֶת הֶעָפָ֑ר וְאֶת הַמַּ֥יִם אֲשֶׁר בַּתְּעָלָ֖ה לִחֵֽכָה
  39. 39And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God.וַיַּרְא֙ כָּל הָעָ֔ם וַֽיִּפְּל֖וּ עַל פְּנֵיהֶ֑ם וַיֹּ֣אמְר֔וּ יְהוָה֙ ה֣וּא הָאֱלֹהִ֔ים יְהוָ֖ה ה֥וּא הָאֱלֹהִֽים
  40. 40And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there.וַיֹּאמֶר֩ אֵלִיָּ֨הוּ תִּפְשׂ֣וּ אֶת נְבִיאֵ֣י הַבַּ֗עַל אִ֛ישׁ אַל יִמָּלֵ֥ט וַֽיִּתְפְּשׂ֑וּם וַיּוֹרִדֵ֤ם אֵלִיָּ֨הוּ֙ אֶל נַ֣חַל קִישׁ֔וֹן וַיִּשְׁחָטֵ֖ם שָֽׁם
  41. 41And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain.וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֵלִיָּ֨הוּ֙ לְאַחְאָ֔ב עֲלֵ֖ה אֱכֹ֣ל וּשְׁתֵ֑ה כִּי ק֖וֹל הֲמ֥וֹן הַגָּֽשֶׁם
  42. 42So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down upon the earth, and put his face between his knees,וַיַּעֲלֶ֥ה אַחְאָ֖ב לֶאֱכֹ֣ל וְלִשְׁתּ֑וֹת וְאֵ֨לִיָּ֜הוּ עָלָ֨ה אֶל רֹ֤אשׁ הַכַּרְמֶל֙ וַיִּגְהַ֣ר אַ֔רְצָה וַיָּ֥שֶׂם פָּנָ֖יו בֵּ֥ין ברכו בִּרְכָּֽיו
  43. 43And said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times.וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֶֽל נַעֲר֗וֹ עֲלֵֽה נָא֙ הַבֵּ֣ט דֶּֽרֶךְ יָ֔ם וַיַּ֨עַל֙ וַיַּבֵּ֔ט וַיֹּ֖אמֶר אֵ֣ין מְא֑וּמָה וַיֹּ֕אמֶר שֻׁ֖ב שֶׁ֥בַע פְּעָמִֽים
  44. 44And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea, like a man's hand. And he said, Go up, say unto Ahab, Prepare thy chariot, and get thee down, that the rain stop thee not.וַֽיְהִי֙ בַּשְּׁבִעִ֔ית וַיֹּ֗אמֶר הִנֵּה עָ֛ב קְטַנָּ֥ה כְּכַף אִ֖ישׁ עֹלָ֣ה מִיָּ֑ם וַיֹּ֗אמֶר עֲלֵ֨ה אֱמֹ֤ר אֶל אַחְאָב֙ אֱסֹ֣ר וָרֵ֔ד וְלֹ֥א יַעַצָרְכָ֖ה הַגָּֽשֶׁם
  45. 45And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel.וַיְהִ֣י עַד כֹּ֣ה וְעַד כֹּ֗ה וְהַשָּׁמַ֨יִם֙ הִֽתְקַדְּרוּ֙ עָבִ֣ים וְר֔וּחַ וַיְהִ֖י גֶּ֣שֶׁם גָּד֑וֹל וַיִּרְכַּ֥ב אַחְאָ֖ב וַיֵּ֥לֶךְ יִזְרְעֶֽאלָה
  46. 46And the hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.וְיַד יְהוָ֗ה הָֽיְתָה֙ אֶל אֵ֣לִיָּ֔הוּ וַיְשַׁנֵּ֖ס מָתְנָ֑יו וַיָּ֨רָץ֙ לִפְנֵ֣י אַחְאָ֔ב עַד בֹּאֲכָ֖ה יִזְרְעֶֽאלָה
