2 Kings 2:12 in Context — 2 Kings 2
10 Élie dit: Tu demandes une chose difficile. Mais si tu me vois pendant que je serai enlevé d’avec toi, cela t’arrivera ainsi; sinon, cela n’arrivera pas.
11 Comme ils continuaient à marcher en parlant, voici, un char de feu et des chevaux de feu les séparèrent l’un de l’autre, et Élie monta au ciel dans un tourbillon.
12 Élisée regardait et criait: Mon père! Mon père! Char d’Israël et sa cavalerie! Et il ne le vit plus. Saisissant alors ses vêtements, il les déchira en deux morceaux,
13 et il releva le manteau qu’Élie avait laissé tomber. Puis il retourna, et s’arrêta au bord du Jourdain;
14 il prit le manteau qu’Élie avait laissé tomber, et il en frappa les eaux, et dit: Où est l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Élie? Lui aussi, il frappa les eaux, qui se partagèrent çà et là, et Élisée passa.
