1 Kings 18:44 in Context — 1 Kings 18

42 E Acabe subiu a comer e a beber. E Elias subiu ao cume do Carmelo; e prostrando-se em terra, pôs seu rosto entre os joelhos.

43 E disse a seu criado: Sobe agora, e olha até o mar. E ele subiu, e olhou, e disse: Não há nada. E ele lhe voltou a dizer: Volta sete vezes.

44 E à sétima vez disse: Eu vejo uma pequena nuvem como a palma da mão de um homem, que sobe do mar. E ele disse: Vai, e dize a Acabe: Unge e desce, porque a chuva não te interrompa.

45 E aconteceu, estando em isto, que os céus se escureceram com nuvens e vento; e houve uma grande chuva. E subindo Acabe, veio a Jezreel.

46 E a mão do SENHOR foi sobre Elias, o qual cingiu seus lombos, e veio correndo diante de Acabe até chegar a Jezreel.
