1 Kings 19:5-10
New International Version
1 Kings 19:5-10
New International Version
5 Then he lay down under the bush and fell asleep.(A)
All at once an angel(B) touched him and said, “Get up and eat.” 6 He looked around, and there by his head was some bread baked over hot coals, and a jar of water. He ate and drank and then lay down again.
7 The angel of the Lord came back a second time and touched him and said, “Get up and eat, for the journey is too much for you.” 8 So he got up and ate and drank. Strengthened by that food, he traveled forty(C) days and forty nights until he reached Horeb,(D) the mountain of God. 9 There he went into a cave(E) and spent the night.
The Lord Appears to Elijah
And the word of the Lord came to him: “What are you doing here, Elijah?”(F)
10 He replied, “I have been very zealous(G) for the Lord God Almighty. The Israelites have rejected your covenant,(H) torn down your altars,(I) and put your prophets to death with the sword. I am the only one left,(J) and now they are trying to kill me too.”

King James Version
1 Kings 19:5-10
King James Version
5 And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat.
6 And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again.
7 And the angel of the Lord came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee.
8 And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.
9 And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the Lord came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah?
10 And he said, I have been very jealous for the Lord God of hosts: for the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.
