2 AmaKhosi 2:1-6

Kwathi lapho uJehova ebeyakumkhuphula u-Eliya aye ezulwini ngesivunguvungu, u-Eliya wasuka eGiligali no-Elisha. U-Eliya wathi ku-Elisha: “Ake uhlale lapha, ngokuba uJehova ungithumile eBethele.” Kepha u-Elisha wathi: “Kuphila kukaJehova nokuphila komphefumulo wakho, angiyikukushiya.” Behlela-ke eBethele. Amadodana abaprofethi ayeseBethele aphuma, aya ku-Elisha, athi kuye: “Uyazi yini ukuthi uJehova uyakususa inkosi yakho kuwe namuhla na?” Wathi: “Yebo, ngiyakwazi; thulani.” U-Eliya wathi kuye: “Elisha, ake uhlale lapha, ngokuba uJehova ungithumile eJeriko.” Kepha wathi: “Kuphila kukaJehova nokuphila kwakho, angiyikukushiya.” Bafika-ke eJeriko. Amadodana abaprofethi ayeseJeriko asondela ku-Elisha, athi kuye: “Uyazi yini ukuthi uJehova uyakususa inkosi yakho kuwe namuhla na?” Wathi: “Yebo, ngiyakwazi; thulani.” U-Eliya wathi kuye: “Ake uhlale lapha, ngokuba uJehova ungithumile eJordani.” Kepha wathi: “Kuphila kukaJehova nokuphila kwakho, angiyikukushiya.” Bahamba-ke bobabili.
