1 Kings 19:19-21

[19] thence, and found  Elisha  the son  of Shaphat,  who was plowing  with twelve  yoke  of oxen before  him, and he with the twelfth:  and Elijah  passed  by him, and cast  his mantle  [20] And he left  the oxen,  and ran  after  Elijah,  and said,  Let me, I pray thee, kiss  my father  and my mother,  thee. And he said  again:  for what have I done  to thee? [21] And he returned back  from him,  and took  a yoke  of oxen,  and slew  them, and boiled  their flesh  with the instruments  of the oxen,  and gave  unto the people,  and they did eat.  Then he arose,  after  Elijah,  and ministered  unto him.
