1 Kings 18:7-14

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

8And he said to him, I [am he]: go, say to thy lord, Behold Elijah!

9And he said, What have I sinned, that thou givest thy servant into the hand of Ahab, to put me to death?

10As Jehovah thy 1God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom whither my lord has not sent to seek thee; and when they said, He is not [here], he took an oath of the kingdom or nation that they found thee not.

11And now thou sayest, Go, say to thy lord, Behold Elijah!

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

13Was 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 maintained them with bread and water?

14And now thou sayest, Go, say to thy lord, Behold Elijah! and he will kill me.
