וַיֵּ֣לֶךְ מִ֠שָּׁם וַיִּמְצָ֞א אֶת־אֱלִישָׁ֤ע בֶּן־שָׁפָט֙ וְה֣וּא חֹרֵ֔שׁ שְׁנֵים־עָשָׂ֤ר צְמָדִים֙ לְפָנָ֔יו וְה֖וּא בִּשְׁנֵ֣ים הֶעָשָׂ֑ר וַיַּעֲבֹ֤ר אֵלִיָּ֙הוּ֙ אֵלָ֔יו וַיַּשְׁלֵ֥ךְ אַדַּרְתּ֖וֹ אֵלָֽיו׃
איז ער אַװעקגעגאַנגען פֿון דאָרטן, און האָט געטראָפֿן אֶלישע דעם זון פֿון שָפֿטן װי ער אַקערט מיט צװעלף געשפּאַנען פֿאַר אים, און ער בײַם צװעלפֿטן. איז אֵלִיָהו אַריבערגעגאַנגען צו אים, און האָט אַרױפֿגעװאָרפֿן זײַן מאַנטל אױף אים.

“He set out from there and found Elisha, etc.” [19:19]. Elijah found Elisha, who was plowing with twelve pair of oxen. There were eleven servants who were guiding eleven pair of oxen and Elisha was guiding the twelfth pair of oxen. Elijah took his mantle and threw it over Elisha. That is to say, he laid his garment over him. He wanted that he should go with him, and Elijah took back his garment.3Radak, I Kings, 19:19.
