4 E Elias lhe voltou a dizer: Eliseu, fica-te aqui agora, porque o SENHOR me enviou a Jericó. E ele disse: Vive o SENHOR, e vive tua alma, que não te deixarei. Vieram, pois, a Jericó.
5 E achegaram-se a Eliseu os filhos dos profetas que estavam em Jericó, e disseram-lhe: Sabes como o SENHOR tirará hoje o teu senhor de tua cabeça? E ele respondeu: Sim, eu o sei; calai.
6 E Elias lhe disse: Rogo-te que te fiques aqui, porque o SENHOR me enviou ao Jordão. E ele disse: Vive o SENHOR, e vive tua alma, que não te deixarei. Foram, pois, ambos.
7 E vieram cinquenta homens dos filhos dos profetas, e pararam-se em frente a o longe: e eles dois se pararam junto ao Jordão.
8 Tomando então Elias seu manto, dobrou-o, e feriu as águas, as quais se apartaram a um e a outro lado, e passaram ambos em seco.
