The Call of Elisha
19 So Elijah departed and found Elisha son of Shaphat. He was plowing with twelve teams [of oxen], and he was with the twelfth [team]. Elijah passed by him and threw his cloak around him.
20 So Elisha left the oxen, ran after Elijah, and said, “Please let me kiss my father and mother [goodbye], and then I will follow you.”
“Go on back,” [Elijah] replied “for what have I done to you?”
21 So [Elisha] turned back from him, took his pair of oxen, and slaughtered them. Using the oxen’s equipment [for fuel], he cooked the meat and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out to follow and serve Elijah.
