Maka kata Elia kepadanya: Hai Elisa! hendaklah engkau tinggal juga di sini, karena aku disuruhkan Tuhan ke Yerikho. Tetapi sahut Elisa: Demi Tuhan yang hidup dan nyawamupun hidup, tiada hamba mau meninggalkan tuan! Maka keduanyapun sampailah ke Yerikho.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Elijah said unto him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee,.... At Bethel:

for the Lord hath sent me to Jericho; to the school of the prophets there, to strengthen, encourage, and advise them:

and he said, as the lord liveth, c using the same form of oath as before:

so they came to Jericho; together, which, as the above writer says i, was four miles from Bethel.

i Travels, &c. p. 205.
