en sprak tot zijnen jongen: Ga op en zie uit naar de zee. En hij ging op en zag uit, en sprak: Er is niets. En hij sprak: Ga weder heen, tot zevenmaal toe.
Voorts zeide hij tot zijn jongen: Klim eens op en zie uit, naar zee. Hij klom op, zag uit en zeide: Er is niets. En hij zeide: Zie nog eens uit, zeven malen! Zo deed de jongen, zeven malen.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And said to his servant,.... Whom some take to be the son of the widow of Sarepta, but he must be too young to be employed in such service as this was:
go up now; still higher on Mount Carmel; than where he was, even to the highest point of it:
look towards the sea: or the west, as the Targum, the Mediterranean sea, which lay to the west of the land of Israel:
and he went up and looked, and he said, there is nothing; there was nothing in the sky, or arising out of the sea, that looked like or foreboded rain:
and he said, go again seven times; till he should see something.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
