1 Kings 19:19-21

New American Standard Bible

¹⁹ So he departed from there and found Elisha the son of Shaphat while he was plowing, with twelve yoke of oxen in front of him, and he with the twelfth. And Elijah came over to him and threw ^(A)his cloak on him. ²⁰ Then he left the oxen behind and ran after Elijah, and said, “Please ^(B)let me kiss my father and my mother, then I will follow you.” And he said to him, “Go back, for ^[a]what have I done to you?” ²¹ So he returned from following him, and took the pair of oxen and sacrificed them, and ^(C)cooked their meat with the implements of the oxen, and gave it to the people and they ate. Then he got up and followed Elijah and served him.
