3. And Ahab called Obadiah, who was the governor of his house. (Now Obadiah feared the Lord greatly,
4. for when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the Lord, Obadiah took one hundred prophets and hid them in groups of fifty in caves and sustained them with bread and water.)
5. And Ahab said unto Obadiah, Go through the land to all the fountains of water and to all the brooks; peradventure we may find herbage to save the horses and mules alive that we not lose all the beasts.
