2 Kings 2:11

2:11 As they were walking along and talking, suddenly a fiery chariot 1  pulled by fiery horses appeared. 2  They went between Elijah and Elisha, 3  and Elijah went up to heaven in a windstorm.

2 Kings 2:14

2:14 He took the cloak that had fallen off Elijah, 4  hit the water with it, and said, “Where is the Lord, the God of Elijah?” When he hit the water, it divided and Elisha crossed over.

1 tn Though the noun is singular here, it may be collective, in which case it could be translated “chariots.”

2 tn Heb “look, a chariot of fire and horses of fire.”

3 tn Heb “and they made a division between the two of them.”

4 tn Heb “Elijah’s cloak, which had fallen off him.” The wording is changed slightly in the translation for the sake of variety of expression (see v. 13).
