1 Kings 18:3 And Ahab called Obadiah, which was the governor of his house. (Now Obadiah feared the Lord greatly: MC VC

1 Kings 18:4 For it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the Lord, that Obadiah took an hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.) MC VC

1 Kings 18:5 And Ahab said unto Obadiah, Go into the land, unto all fountains of water, and unto all brooks: peradventure we may find grass to save the horses and mules alive, that we lose not all the beasts. MC VC

1 Kings 18:6 So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself. MC VC

1 Kings 18:7 And as Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said, Art thou that my lord Elijah? MC VC

1 Kings 18:8 And he answered him, I am: go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here. MC VC

1 Kings 18:9 And he said, What have I sinned, that thou wouldest deliver thy servant into the hand of Ahab, to slay me? MC VC

1 Kings 18:10 As the Lord thy God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee: and when they said, He is not there; he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they found thee not. MC VC

1 Kings 18:11 And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here. MC VC

1 Kings 18:12 And it shall come to pass, as soon as I am gone from thee, that the Spirit of the Lord shall carry thee whither I know not; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he cannot find thee, he shall slay me: but I thy servant fear the Lord from my youth. MC VC

1 Kings 18:13 Was it not told my lord what I did when Jezebel slew the prophets of the Lord, how I hid an hundred men of the Lord’s prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water? MC VC

1 Kings 18:14 And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here: and he shall slay me. MC VC

1 Kings 18:15 And Elijah said, As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, I will surely shew myself unto him to day. MC VC

1 Kings 18:16 So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him: and Ahab went to meet Elijah. MC VC
