14 And now you say, Go and say to your Lord, Elijah is here; and he will put me to death.
15 And Elijah said, By the life of the Lord of armies, whose servant I am, I will certainly let him see me today.
16 So Obadiah went to Ahab and gave him the news; and Ahab went to see Elijah.
17 And when he saw Elijah, Ahab said to him, Is it you, you troubler of Israel?
18 Then he said in answer, I have not been troubling Israel, but you and your family; because, turning away from the orders of the Lord, you have gone after the Baals.
19 Now send, and get Israel together before me at Mount Carmel, with the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal who get their food at Jezebel's table.
20 So Ahab sent for all the children of Israel, and got the prophets together at Mount Carmel.
