ויאמר לו אליהו אלישע שב נא פה כי יהוה שלחני יריחו ויאמר חי יהוה וחי נפשך אם אעזבך ויבאו יריחו
Biblia Hebrica Stuttgartensia (1967/77)
וַיֹּאמֶר֩ לֹ֨ו אֵלִיָּ֜הוּ אֱלִישָׁ֣ע ׀ שֵֽׁב־נָ֣א פֹ֗ה כִּ֤י יְהוָה֙ שְׁלָחַ֣נִי יְרִיחֹ֔ו וַיֹּ֕אמֶר חַי־יְהוָ֥ה וְחֵֽי־נַפְשְׁךָ֖ אִם־אֶעֶזְבֶ֑ךָּ וַיָּבֹ֖אוּ יְרִיחֹֽו ׃
Westminster Leningrad Codex
וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ אֵלִיָּהוּ אֱלִישָׁע ׀ שֵֽׁב־נָא פֹה כִּי יְהוָה שְׁלָחַנִי יְרִיחוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר חַי־יְהוָה וְחֵֽי־נַפְשְׁךָ אִם־אֶעֶזְבֶךָּ וַיָּבֹאוּ יְרִיחֹֽו ׃

As the Lord: 2 Kings 2:2, 2 Kings 4:30, Acts 2:42, Acts 11:23

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Elijah said unto him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee,.... At Bethel:

for the Lord hath sent me to Jericho; to the school of the prophets there, to strengthen, encourage, and advise them:

and he said, as the lord liveth, c using the same form of oath as before:

so they came to Jericho; together, which, as the above writer says i, was four miles from Bethel.

i Travels, &c. p. 205.
