7As Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him: and he knew 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, Wherein have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me?
10As Yahweh your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom, where my lord has not sent to seek you: and when they said, He is not here, he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they didn`t find you.
11Now you say, Go, tell your lord, Behold, Elijah [is here].
12It will happen, as soon as I am gone from you, that the Spirit of Yahweh will carry you I don`t know where; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he can`t find you, he will kill me: but I your servant fear Yahweh from my youth.
13Wasn`t it told my lord what I did when Jezebel killed the prophets of Yahweh, how I hid one hundred men of Yahweh`s prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water?
