1 Kings 19:18 in Context — 1 Kings 19
16 Tu oindras aussi Jéhu, fils de Nimschi, pour roi d’Israël; et tu oindras Élisée, fils de Schaphath, d’Abel-Mehola, pour prophète à ta place.
17 Et il arrivera que celui qui échappera à l’épée de Hazaël, Jéhu le fera mourir; et celui qui échappera à l’épée de Jéhu, Élisée le fera mourir.
18 Mais je laisserai en Israël sept mille hommes, tous ceux qui n’ont point fléchi les genoux devant Baal, et dont la bouche ne l’a point baisé.
19 Élie partit de là, et il trouva Élisée, fils de Schaphath, qui labourait. Il y avait devant lui douze paires de bœufs, et il était avec la douzième. Élie s’approcha de lui, et il jeta sur lui son manteau.
20 Élisée, quittant ses bœufs, courut après Élie, et dit: Laisse-moi embrasser mon père et ma mère, et je te suivrai. Élie lui répondit: Va, et reviens; car pense à ce que je t’ai fait.
