And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he said, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.
The sons of the prophets at Bethel approached Elisha and asked if he knew that the Lord would take his master away today. Elisha replied affirmatively and told them not to say anything about it.
