So Ahab went off to eat and drink, but Elijah climbed to the top of Carmel, bent down to the ground and put his face between his knees.
"Go and look toward the sea," he told his servant. And he went up and looked. "There is nothing there," he said. Seven times Elijah said, "Go back."
The seventh time the servant reported, "A cloud as small as a man's hand is rising from the sea." So Elijah said, "Go and tell Ahab, 'Hitch up your chariot and go down before the rain stops you.' "
Meanwhile, the sky grew black with clouds, the wind rose, a heavy rain started falling and Ahab rode off to Jezreel.
亞哈就上去吃喝。以利亞上了迦密山頂，屈身在地，將臉伏在兩膝之中；
對僕人說：「你上去，向海觀看。」僕人就上去觀看，說：「沒有什麼。」他說：「你再去觀看。」如此七次。
第七次僕人說：「我看見有一小片雲從海裡上來，不過如人手那樣大。」以利亞說：「你上去告訴亞哈，當套車下去，免得被雨阻擋。」
霎時間，天因風雲黑暗，降下大雨。亞哈就坐車往耶斯列去了。

I love the Lord, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy.
Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.
我愛耶和華，因為他聽了我的聲音和我的懇求。
他既向我側耳，我一生要求告他。
