2 Kings 2:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 And as they went walking and talking, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and did separate them twain. So Elijah went up by a whirlwind into [a]heaven.
12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof: and he saw him no more: and he took his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
13 ¶ He took up also the cloak of Elijah, that fell from him, and returned, and stood by the bank of Jordan.
