1 Kings 19:9-11

New American Standard Bible 1995

Elijah at Horeb

⁹ Then he came there to a cave and lodged there; and behold, ^(A)the word of the Lord came to him, and He said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?” ¹⁰ He said, “^(B)I have been very zealous for the Lord, the God of hosts; for the sons of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, ^(C)torn down Your altars and killed Your prophets with the sword. And ^(D)I alone am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.”

¹¹ So He said, “^(E)Go forth and stand on the mountain before the Lord.” And behold, the Lord was passing by! And ^(F)a great and strong wind was rending the mountains and breaking in pieces the rocks before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind. And after the wind an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake.
