1 Kings 19:10-12

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁰ He answered, “Lord God of Armies, I have eagerly served you. The Israelites have abandoned your promises,^[a] torn down your altars, and executed your prophets. I’m the only one left, and they’re trying to take my life.”

¹¹ God said, “Go out and stand in front of the Lord on the mountain.”

As the Lord was passing by, a fierce wind tore mountains and shattered rocks ahead of the Lord. But the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind came an earthquake. But the Lord wasn’t in the earthquake. ¹² After the earthquake there was a fire. But the Lord wasn’t in the fire. And after the fire there was a quiet, whispering voice.
