1 Kings 18:12

Context
18:12 But when I leave you, the Lord’s spirit will carry you away so I can’t find you. 1  If I go tell Ahab I’ve seen you, he won’t be able to find you and he will kill me. 2  That would not be fair, 3  because your servant has been a loyal follower of 4  the Lord from my youth.

1 Kings 19:4

Context
19:4 while he went a day’s journey into the desert. He went and sat down under a shrub 5  and asked the Lord to take his life: 6  “I’ve had enough! Now, O Lord, take my life. After all, I’m no better than my ancestors.” 7
