1 Kings 19:11-13

New English Translation

¹¹ The Lord^[a] said, “Go out and stand on the mountain before the Lord. Look, the Lord is ready to pass by.”

A very powerful wind went before the Lord, digging into the mountain and causing landslides,^[b] but the Lord was not in the wind. After the windstorm there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. ¹² After the earthquake, there was a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. After the fire, there was a soft whisper.^{[c] 13} When Elijah heard it, he covered his face with his robe and went out and stood at the entrance to the cave. Suddenly^[d] a voice asked him, “Why are you here, Elijah?”
