2 Kings 2:4-6

International Children’s Bible

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. ⁵ A group of the prophets at Jericho came to Elisha. They said, “Do you know that the Lord will take your master away from you today?”

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

⁶ Elijah said to Elisha, “Stay here. The Lord has sent me to the Jordan River.”

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

So the two of them went on.
