1 Kings 19:4 in Context — 1 Kings 19
2 Então enviou Jezabel a Elias um mensageiro, dizendo: Assim me façam os deuses, e assim me acrescentem, se amanhã a estas horas eu não haja posto tua pessoa como a de um deles.
3 Vendo, pois, o perigo, levantou-se e foi-se por salvar sua vida, e veio a Berseba, que é em Judá, e deixou ali seu criado.
4 E ele se foi pelo deserto um dia de caminho, e veio e sentou-se debaixo de um junípero; e desejando morrer, disse: Basta já, ó SENHOR, tira minha alma; que não sou eu melhor que meus pais.
5 E lançando-se debaixo do junípero, ficou dormido: e eis que logo um anjo que lhe tocou, e lhe disse: Levanta-te, come.
6 Então ele olhou, e eis que a sua cabeceira uma torta cozida sobre as ascuas, e um vaso de água: e comeu e bebeu e voltou-se a dormir.
