New Testament

1 Kings 18:4-8 Modern English Version (MEV)

4. When Jezebel killed the prophets of the Lord, Obadiah took a hundred prophets and hid them in groups of fifty in a cave and fed them with bread and water.)

5. And Ahab said to Obadiah, “Go into the land, to all the springs of water and to all the brooks. Perhaps we will find grass to save the horses and mules, so that we do not lose all the beasts.”

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

7. As Obadiah was going along, he met Elijah, and he recognized him and fell on his face and said, “Is that you, my lord Elijah?”

8. And he answered him, “I am. Go, tell your lord, ‘Elijah is here.’ ”
