1 Kings 18:5-10

⁵Ahab said to Obadiah, “Go through the land, to all the springs of water, and to all the brooks. Perhaps we may find grass and save the horses and mules alive, that we not lose all the animals.”

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

⁷As Obadiah was on the way, behold, Elijah met him. He recognised him, and fell on his face, and said, “Is it you, my lord Elijah?”

⁸He answered him, “It is I. Go, tell your lord, ‘Behold, Elijah is here!’”

⁹He said, “How have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me?

¹⁰As the LORD your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom where my lord has not sent to seek you. When they said, ‘He is not here,’ he took an oath of the kingdom and nation that they didn’t find you.
