1 Kings 19:2-4

New Catholic Bible

² Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah saying, “May the gods do this to me and more if by this time tomorrow I have not made your life like their lives.”

³ He rose up and fled for his life, going to Beer-sheba in Judah, and he left his servant there. ⁴ He went a day’s journey off into the desert. He came to a broom tree and sat down under it, and he asked to die. He said, “It is enough, O Lord, take away my life, for I am no better than my fathers.”
