Emva kwendudumo kwabakho umlilo; kodwa uYehova wayengekho emlilweni, yaye emva komlilo kwakukho ilizwi elizolileyo.

Wahamba entlango uhambo lwemini enye, wafika wahlala phantsi konwele; waye yena ecinga ukuba ubeya kufa; Wathi, Kwanele; ngoku, Yehova, wuthabathe umphefumlo wam; ngokuba andilungile kunobawo.

Wathi, Phumani, nime entabeni phambi koYehova. Nanko uYehova edlula, kwavuthuza iintaba umoya omkhulu onamandla, wawaqhekeza amawa phambi koYehova; kodwa uYehova wayengekho kumoya, yaye emva komoya kwabakho inyikima kodwa uYehova wayengekho kuloo nyikima.

Akukuva oko uEliya, wabugquma ubuso bakhe ngesambatho sakhe sangaphezulu, waphuma wema emnyango womqolomba nanko kufika kuye ilizwi, lisithi, Wenza ntoni na apho, Eliya?

Wangena emqolombeni, walala khona; Nalo izwi likaYehova lifika kuye, lathi kuye, Uyintoni na apha, Eliya?

Wavuka, wadla, wasela, waza ngamandla oko kudla wahamba iimini ezingamashumi amane nobusuku obungamashumi amane ukuya kutsho eHorebhe, intaba yoThixo oyinyaniso.

Kwathi, elele phantsi konwele, kwabonakala isithunywa sezulu simchukumisa, sathi kuye, Vuka udle.

Sabuya isithunywa sikaYehova okwesibini, samchukumisa, sathi, Vuka, udle; kuba uhambo lukhulu kakhulu kuwe.

Wandula ke wathi: “Ndandikhweletela kakhulu ngoYehova uTHIXO wemikhosi, ngenxa yokuba oonyana bakaSirayeli bewushiyile umnqophiso wakho, bazidiliza izibingelelo zakho baza bababulala abaprofeti bakho ngekrele; ndasala ndedwa; kwaye bafuna ukuthabatha ubomi bam.

Wakhangela, nantso iqebengwana elosiweyo lesonka, neselwa lamanzi phezu kwentloko yakhe. Watya, wasela, waphinda walala.

uIzebhele wathuma umthunywa kuEliya, esithi, Mabenjenje oothixo kum, bande, ukuba ngomso eli xa andiwuwenzanga umphefumlo wakho, ube njengomnye wabo.

Ke ndishiye amaSirayeli angamawaka asixhenxe, angaguqanga amadolo onke kuBhahali, imilebe yonke engekamanga.

Wesuka khona, wafumana uElisha, unyana kaShafati, elima, phambi kwakhe ngamahashe alishumi elinamabini; yena engoweshumi elinesibini; uEliya wadlula ngakuye waza waphosa isambatho sakhe sangaphezulu phezu kwakhe.

Wabuya ke ekumlandeleni, wazithabatha iinkomo, wabingelela, wayipheka inyama yazo ngezidlele zeenkomo, wanika abantu, badla. Wesuka ke, wamlandela uEliya, wamkhonza.

Wazishiya iinkabi, wabaleka emva koEliya, esithi, Makhe ndiye kwanga ubawo noma, ndikulandele ke. Wathi kuye, Buya; ndikwenze ntoni na?
