1 Kings 19:2-4
New American Standard Bible 1995
2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “(A)So may the gods do to me and even more, if I do not make your [a]life as the [b]life of one of them by tomorrow about this time.” 3 And he [c]was afraid and arose and ran for his [d]life and came to (B)Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there. 4 But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a [e]juniper tree; and (C)he requested for himself that he might die, and said, “It is enough; now, O Lord, take my [f]life, for I am not better than my fathers.”
