2 Kings 2:2-4

International Children’s Bible

² Elijah said to Elisha, “Please stay here. The Lord has told me to go to Bethel.”

But Elisha said, “As the Lord lives, and as you live, I won’t leave you.” So they went down to Bethel. ³ A group of the prophets at Bethel came to Elisha. They said to him, “Do you know the Lord will take your master away from you today?”

Elisha said, “Yes, I know. But don’t talk about it.”

⁴ Elijah said to him, “Stay here, because the Lord has sent me to Jericho.”

But Elisha said, “As the Lord lives, and as you live, I won’t leave you.”

So they went to Jericho.
