1 Kings 18:1-16

And it came to pass [after] many
<07227>
days
<03117>_,
that the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came to Elijah
<0452>
in the third
<07992>
year
<08141>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go
<03212> (8798)_,
shew
<07200> (8734)
thyself unto Ahab
<0256>_;
and I will send
<05414> (8799)
rain
<04306>
upon
<06440>
the earth
<0127>_.
And Elijah
<0452>
went
<03212> (8799)
to shew
<07200> (8736)
himself unto Ahab
<0256>_.
And [there was] a sore
<02389>
famine
<07458>
in Samaria
<08111>_.
And Ahab
<0256>
called
<07121> (8799)
Obadiah
<05662>_,
which [was] the governor of [his] house
<01004>_.
(Now Obadiah
<05662>
feared
<03373>
the LORD
<03068>
greatly
<03966>_:
{Obadiah: Heb. Obadiahu} {the governor...: Heb. over his house}
For it was [so], when Jezebel
<0348>
cut off
<03772> (8687)
the prophets
<05030>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
that Obadiah
<05662>
took
<03947> (8799)
an hundred
<03967>
prophets
<05030>_,
and hid
<02244> (8686)
them by fifty
<0376> <02572>
in a cave
<04631>_,
and fed
<03557> (8773)
them with bread
<03899>
and water
<04325>.)
{Jezebel: Heb. Izebel}
And Ahab
<0256>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Obadiah
<05662>_,
Go
<03212> (8798)
into the land
<0776>_,
unto all fountains
<04599>
of water
<04325>_,
and unto all brooks
<05158>_:
peradventure
<0194>
we may find
<04672> (8799)
grass
<02682>
to save
<02421> (8762)
the horses
<05483>
and mules
<06505>
alive
<02421> (8762)_,
that we lose
<03772> (8686)
not all the beasts
<0929>_.
{that...: Heb. that we cut not off ourselves from the beasts}
So they divided
<02505> (8762)
the land
<0776>
between them to pass throughout
<05674> (8800)
it: Ahab
<0256>
went
<01980> (8804)
one
<0259>
way
<01870>
by himself, and Obadiah
<05662>
went
<01980> (8804)
another
<0259>
way
<01870>
by himself.
And as Obadiah
<05662>
was in the way
<01870>_,
behold, Elijah
<0452>
met
<07125> (8800)
him: and he knew
<05234> (8686)
him, and fell
<05307> (8799)
on his face
<06440>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
[Art] thou that my lord
<0113>
Elijah
<0452>_?
And he answered
<0559> (8799)
him, I [am]: go
<03212> (8798)_,
tell
<0559> (8798)
thy lord
<0113>_,
Behold, Elijah
<0452>
[is here].
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
What have I sinned
<02398> (8804)_,
that thou wouldest deliver
<05414> (8802)
thy servant
<05650>
into the hand
<03027>
of Ahab
<0256>_,
to slay
<04191> (8687)
me?
[As] the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
liveth
<02416>_,
there is no
<03426>
nation
<01471>
or kingdom
<04467>_,
whither
<0834>
my lord
<0113>
hath not sent
<07971> (8804)
to seek
<01245> (8763)
thee: and when they said
<0559> (8804)_,
[He is] not [there]; he took an oath
<07650> (8689)
of the kingdom
<04467>
and nation
<01471>_,
that they found
<04672> (8799)
thee not.
And now thou sayest
<0559> (8802)_,
Go
<03212> (8798)_,
tell
<0559> (8798)
thy lord
<0113>_,
Behold, Elijah
<0452>
[is here].
And it shall come to pass, [as soon as] I am gone
<03212> (8799)
from thee, that the Spirit
<07307>
of the LORD
<03068>
shall carry
<05375> (8799)
thee whither I know
<03045> (8799)
not; and [so] when I come
<0935> (8804)
and tell
<05046> (8687)
Ahab
<0256>_,
and he cannot find
<04672> (8799)
thee, he shall slay
<02026> (8804)
me: but I thy servant
<05650>
fear
<03372> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
from my youth
<05271>_.
Was it not told
<05046> (8717)
my lord
<0113>
what I did
<06213> (8804)
when Jezebel
<0348>
slew
<02026> (8800)
the prophets
<05030>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
how I hid
<02244> (8686)
an hundred
<03967>
men
<0376>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
prophets
<05030>
by fifty
<02572>
in a cave
<04631>_,
and fed
<03557> (8770)
them with bread
<03899>
and water
<04325>_?
And now thou sayest
<0559> (8802)_,
Go
<03212> (8798)_,
tell
<0559> (8798)
thy lord
<0113>_,
Behold, Elijah
<0452>
[is here]: and he shall slay
<02026> (8804)
me.
And Elijah
<0452>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
[As] the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
liveth
<02416>_,
before
<06440>
whom I stand
<05975> (8804)_,
I will surely shew
<07200> (8735)
myself unto him to day
<03117>_.
So Obadiah
<05662>
went
<03212> (8799)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
Ahab
<0256>_,
and told
<05046> (8686)
him: and Ahab
<0256>
went
<03212> (8799)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
Elijah
<0452>_.
