Elisha

12 Elijah was covered by the whirlwind,
    and Elisha was filled with his spirit.[a]
In his time, he didn’t tremble
before any ruler,
    and no one oppressed him.
13 Nothing was too great for him,
    and in death his body prophesied.[b]
14 During his life,
he performed wonders,
    and in death his accomplishments
    were marvelous.
