    1 And it came to pass after many days, that the word of Jehovah came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, Go, show thyself unto Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth.

    2 And Elijah went to show himself unto Ahab. And the famine was sore in Samaria.

    3 And Ahab called Obadiah, who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared Jehovah greatly:

    4 for it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of Jehovah, that Obadiah took a hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.)

    5 And Ahab said unto Obadiah, Go through the land, unto all the fountains of water, and unto all the brooks: peradventure we may find grass and save the horses and mules alive, that we lose not all the beasts.

    6 So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself.

    7 And as Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said, Is it thou, my lord Elijah?

    8 And he answered him, It is I: go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah [is here] .

    9 And he said, Wherein have I sinned, that thou wouldest deliver thy servant into the hand of Ahab, to slay me?

    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.
