1 Kings 18:4-11
4for 1when JezebelH348 2destroyedH3772 the prophetsH5030 of the LordH3068, ObadiahH5662 tookH3947 a hundredH3967 prophetsH5030 and hidH2244 them by fiftiesH2572 in a caveH4631, and 3providedH3557 them with breadH3899 and waterH4325.) 5Then AhabH256 saidH559 to ObadiahH5662, “GoH1980 through the landH776 to allH3605 the springsH4599 of waterH4325 and to allH3605 the valleysH5158; perhapsH194 we will findH4672 grassH2682 and keepH2421 the horsesH5483 and mulesH6505 aliveH2421, and not 4have to killH3772 someH4480 of the cattleH929.” 6So they dividedH2505 the landH776 between them to 5surveyH5674 it; AhabH256 wentH1980 oneH259 wayH1870 by himselfH905 and ObadiahH5662 wentH1980 anotherH259 wayH1870 by himselfH905.
7Now as ObadiahH5662 was on the wayH1870, beholdH2009, ElijahH452 6metH7122 him, 7and he recognizedH5234 him and fellH5307 on his faceH6440 and saidH559, “Is thisH2088 you, ElijahH452 my masterH113?” 8He saidH559 to him, “It is I. GoH1980, sayH559 to your masterH113, ‘BeholdH2009, ElijahH452 is here.’” 9He saidH559, “WhatH4100 8sinH2398 have I committedH2398, that you are givingH5414 your servantH5650 into the handH3027 of AhabH256 to putH4191 me to deathH4191? 109As the LordH3068 your GodH430 livesH2416, thereH3426 is noH518 nationH1471 or kingdomH4467 whereH834H8033 my masterH113 has not sentH7971 to searchH1245 for you; and when they saidH559, ‘He is not here,’ he made the kingdomH4467 or nationH1471 swearH7650 that they could not findH4672 you. 11And nowH6258 you are sayingH559, ‘GoH1980, sayH559 to your masterH113, “BeholdH2009, ElijahH452 is here.”’
