2 Kings 2:7 in Context — 2 Kings 2

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.

9 E quando houveram passado, Elias disse a Eliseu: Pede o que queres que faça por ti, antes que seja tirado de contigo. E disse Eliseu: Rogo-te que a porção dobrada de teu espírito seja sobre mim.
