1Kings:18:1-15
lesserot@1Kings:18:1 @ And it lasted many days, when the word of the Lord came to Elijah in the third year, saying, Go, show thyself unto Achab; and I will give rain upon the face of the earth.
lesserot@1Kings:18:2 @ And Elijah went to show himself unto Achab; and the famine was grievous in Samaria.
lesserot@1Kings:18:3 @ And Achab called Obadiah, who was the superintendent of the house; (now Obadiah feared the Lord greatly;
lesserot@1Kings:18:4 @ And it happened, when Izebel cut off the prophets of the Lord, that Obadiah took a hundred prophets, and hid them fifty each in one cave, and provided them with bread and water;)
lesserot@1Kings:18:5 @ And Achab said unto Obadiah, Go through the land, unto all the springs of water, and unto all the brooks, peradventure we may find grass and keep alive horse and mule, that we lose not all the cattle.
lesserot@1Kings:18:6 @ So they divided between them the land to pass through it: Achab went one way by himself alone, and Obadiah went another way by himself alone.
lesserot@1Kings:18:7 @ And as Obadiah was on the way, behold, Elijah came toward him; and he recognized him, and fell on his face, and said, Art thou here indeed, my Lord Elijah?
lesserot@1Kings:18:8 @ And he said unto him, I am: go, say unto thy Lord, Behold, Elijah is here.
lesserot@1Kings:18:9 @ And he said, What have I sinned, that thou wouldst deliver thy servant into the hand of Achab, to slay me?
lesserot@1Kings:18:10 @ As the Lord thy God liveth, there is not a nation or kingdom whither my Lord hath not sent to seek thee; and when they said, He is not here: he caused that kingdom and nation to take an oath, that no one could find thee.
lesserot@1Kings:18:11 @ And now thou sayest, Go, say unto thy Lord, Behold, here is Elijah.
lesserot@1Kings:18:12 @ And it may come to pass, that, when I go from thee, the spirit of the Lord may carry thee whither I know not; and when I come to inform Achab, and he cannot find thee, he will slay me; but I thy servant have feared the Lord from my youth.
lesserot@1Kings:18:13 @ Hath it not been told unto my Lord what I did when Izebel slew the prophets of the Lord, how I hid a hundred men of the prophets of the Lord, fifty each in one cave, and provided them with bread and water?
lesserot@1Kings:18:14 @ And now thou sayest, Go say to thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here: and he will slay me.
lesserot@1Kings:18:15 @ Then said Elijah, As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whom I have stood, surely today will I show myself unto him.
