2 Then Izevel sent a malach unto Eliyahu, saying, So let elohim do to me, and more also, if I make not thy nefesh as the life of one of them by this time makhar (tomorrow).
3 And when he saw that, he arose, and fled for his nefesh, and came to Be'er Sheva, which belongeth to Yehudah, and left his na'ar (servant) there.
4 But he himself went derech yom (a day's journey) into the midbar, and came and sat down under a broom tree; and he requested for his nefesh to die; and said, It is enough; now, O Hashem, take away my nefesh; for I am no better than my avot.
5 And as he lay and slept under a broom tree, hinei, then a malach touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat.
6 And he looked, and, hinei, there at his rosh was an oogah (disk or cake of bread) baked on hot coals, and a jar of mayim. And he did eat and drink, and returned to lie down again.
7 And the Malach Hashem came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the derech is too great for thee.
8 And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the ko'ach ha'achilah hahi (strength of that food) arba'im yom v'arba'im lailah unto Chorev the Har HaElohim.
