1 Kings 19:15-16, 19-21

 

Then the Lord said to him, “Go, return on your way to the wilderness             of Damascus;  when you arrive, you shall anoint Hazael as king over Aram.  Alsoyou shall anoint Jehu son of Nimshi as king over Israel;             and you shall anoint Elisha son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah as              prophet in your place.

 

So he set out from there, and found Elisha son of Shaphat, who was     plowing.  There were twelve yoke of oxen ahead of him, and he was      with the twelfth.  Elijah passed by him and threw his mantle over him.   He left the oxen, ran after Elijah and said, “Let me kiss my father and     my mother, and then I will follow you.”  Then Elijah said to him, “Go      back again; for what have I done to you?”  He returned from following him,  took the yoke of oxen,  and slaughtered them; using the equipment from the oxen, he boiled their flesh, and gave it to the people, and they ate.  Then he set out and followed Elijah, and became his  servant.
