【王下2:1】 耶和华要用旋风接以利亚升天的时候,以利亚与以利沙从吉甲前往。
When the Lord was about to take Elijah up to heaven in a whirlwind, Elijah and Elisha were on their way from Gilgal.
【王下2:9】 过去之后,以利亚对以利沙说,我未曾被接去离开你,你要我为你作什么,只管求我。以利沙说,愿感动你的灵加倍地感动我。
When they had crossed, Elijah said to Elisha, 'Tell me, what can I do for you before I am taken from you?' 'Let me inherit a double portion of your spirit,' Elisha replied.
【王下2:10】 以利亚说,你所求的难得。虽然如此,我被接去离开你的时候,你若看见我,就必得着。不然,必得不着了。
'You have asked a difficult thing,' Elijah said, 'yet if you see me when I am taken from you, it will be yours-otherwise not.'
【王下2:11】 他们正走着说话,忽有火车火马将二人隔开,以利亚就乘旋风升天去了。
As they were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up to heaven in a whirlwind.
【王下2:12】 以利沙看见,就呼叫说,我父阿。我父阿。以色列的战车马兵阿。以后不再见他了。于是以利沙把自己的衣服撕为两片。
Elisha saw this and cried out, 'My father! My father! The chariots and horsemen of Israel!' And Elisha saw him no more. Then he took hold of his own clothes and tore them apart.
