Legacy Standard Bible

^5 (A)Then the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho approached Elisha and said to him, “^(B)Do you know that Yahweh will take away your master from over ^[a]you today?” And he ^[b]answered, “Yes, I know; be silent.” ⁶ Then Elijah said to him, “Please ^(C)stay here, for Yahweh has sent me to ^(D)the Jordan.” And he said, “As Yahweh lives and as your soul lives, I will not forsake you.” So the two of them went on.

⁷ Now ^(E)fifty men of the sons of the prophets went and stood opposite them at a distance, but the two of them stood by the Jordan.
