2 So Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, ‘May the gods punish me and do so severely(A) if I don’t make your life like the life of one of them by this time tomorrow! ’
3 Then Elijah became afraid[a](B) and immediately ran for his life.(C) When he came to Beer-sheba(D) that belonged to Judah, he left his servant there,(E) 4 but he went on a day’s journey into the wilderness. He sat down under a broom tree(F) and prayed that he might die. He said, ‘I have had enough! Lord, take my life,(G) for I’m no better than my ancestors.’
