1 Kings 19:2-4

New American Standard Bible 1995

² Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “^(A)So may the gods do to me and even more, if I do not make your ^[a]life as the ^[b]life of one of them by tomorrow about this time.” ³ And he ^[c]was afraid and arose and ran for his ^[d]life and came to ^(B)Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there. ⁴ But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a ^[e]juniper tree; and ^(C)he requested for himself that he might die, and said, “It is enough; now, O Lord, take my ^[f]life, for I am not better than my fathers.”
