14. and now thou art saying, Go, say to my lord, Lo, Elijah--and he hath slain me!'
15. And Elijah saith, `Jehovah of Hosts liveth, before whom I have stood, surely to-day I appear unto him.'
16. And Obadiah goeth to meet Ahab, and declareth [it] to him, and Ahab goeth to meet Elijah,
17. and it cometh to pass at Ahab's seeing Elijah, that Ahab saith unto him, `Art thou he--the troubler of Israel?'
18. And he saith, `I have not troubled Israel, but thou and the house of thy father, in your forsaking the commands of Jehovah, and thou goest after the Baalim;
19. and now, send, gather unto me all Israel, unto the mount of Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the shrine, four hundred--eating at the table of Jezebel.'
20. And Ahab sendeth among all the sons of Israel, and gathereth the prophets unto the mount of Carmel;
21. and Elijah cometh nigh unto all the people, and saith, `Till when are ye leaping on the two branches? --if Jehovah [is] God, go after Him; and if Baal, go after him;' and the people have not answered him a word.
