1 Kings 18

11  And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah `is here'.

12  And it will come to pass, as soon as I am gone from thee, that the Spirit of Jehovah will carry thee whither I know not; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he cannot find thee, he will slay me: but I thy servant fear Jehovah from my youth.

13  Was it not told my lord what I did when Jezebel slew the prophets of Jehovah, how I hid a hundred men of Jehovah's prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water?

14  And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah `is here'; and he will slay me.

15  And Elijah said, As Jehovah of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, I will surely show myself unto him to-day.

16  So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him; and Ahab went to meet Elijah.

17  And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Is it thou, thou troubler of Israel?

18  And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of Jehovah, and thou hast followed the Baalim.

19  Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the Asherah four hundred, that eat at Jezebel's table.

20  So Ahab sent unto all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together unto mount Carmel.
