16 And Jeʹhu+ the grandson* of Nimʹshi+ you should anoint as king over Israel; and E·liʹsha*+ the son of Shaʹphat from Aʹbel-me·hoʹlah+ you should anoint as prophet in place of you.+

15 When the sons of the prophets that were at Jerʹi·cho saw him some way off, they began to say: “The spirit+ of E·liʹjah has settled down upon E·liʹsha.” Accordingly they came to meet him and bowed down*+ to him to the earth.
