After the earthquake a fire passed; but the LORD was not in the fire.
After the fire, there was a still small voice.
When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his mantle, went out, and stood in the entrance of the cave.
Behold, a voice came to him, and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
He said, “I have been very jealous for the LORD, the God of Armies; for the children of Israel have forsaken your covenant, thrown down your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword.
I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.”
