1Now Ahab told Jezebel everything that Elijah had done and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword.
2So Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “May the gods deal with me, and ever so severely, if by this time tomorrow I do not make your life like the lives of those you killed!”
3And Elijah was afraid and ran for his life. When he came to Beersheba in Judah, he left his servant there,
4while he himself traveled on a day’s journey into the wilderness. He sat down under a broom tree and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough, LORD,” he said. “Take my life, for I am no better than my fathers.”
5Then he lay down under the broom tree and fell asleep. Suddenly an angel touched him and said, “Get up and eat.”
6And he looked around, and there by his head was a cake of bread baked over hot coals, and a jar of water. So he ate and drank and lay down again.
7A second time the angel of the LORD returned and touched him, saying, “Get up and eat, or the journey will be too much for you.”
