A great rain comes, and Elijah runs before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel

큰 비가 내리고 엘리야가 이스르엘로 들어가는 곳까지 아합 앞에서 달려감

1 Kings 18:41–46: Elijah says to Ahab, “Get up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of abundance of rain.” So Ahab goes up to eat and to drink. Elijah goes up to the top of Carmel; and he bows himself down on the earth, and puts his face between his knees. He says to his servant, “Go up now and look toward the sea.” The servant goes up and looks, then says, “There is nothing.” He says, “Go again” seven times. On the seventh time, the servant says, “Behold, a small cloud, like a man’s hand, is rising out of the sea.” He says, “Go up, tell Ahab, ‘Get ready and go down, so that the rain doesn’t stop you.’” In a little while, the sky grows black with clouds and wind, and there is a great rain. Ahab rides, and goes to Jezreel. The text says, “The LORD’s hand was on Elijah; and he tucked his cloak into his belt and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.” WEB says “He” of the servant at 18:43–44 and of Elijah at 18:43–44 alike. The Korean Revised Version names the mountain at 18:42 (갈멜산 꼭대기, the top of Mount Carmel); puts the count inside Elijah’s words at 18:43 (일곱번까지 다시 가라, go again, up to seven times); names the chariot at 18:44 and 18:45 (마차를 갖추고 내려가소서; 아합이 마차를 타고, Ahab rode in a chariot); and reads 여호와의 능력, the LORD’s power, where WEB reads “The LORD’s hand” (18:46).
