⮜ 1 Kings 17 | 1 Kings 19 ⮞

1 After many days, YHWH’s word came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, “Go, show yourself to Ahab; and I will send rain on the earth.” 1 Kings 18:1WEB
2 Elijah went to show himself to Ahab. The famine was severe in Samaria. 1 Kings 18:2WEB
3 Ahab called Obadiah, who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared YHWH greatly; 1 Kings 18:3WEB
4 for when Jezebel cut off YHWH’s prophets, Obadiah took one hundred prophets, and hid them fifty to a cave, and fed them with bread and water.) 1 Kings 18:4WEB
5 Ahab said to Obadiah, “Go through the land, to all the springs of water, and to all the brooks. Perhaps we may find grass and save the horses and mules alive, that we not lose all the animals.” 1 Kings 18:5WEB
6 So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it. Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself. 1 Kings 18:6WEB
7 As Obadiah was on the way, behold, Elijah met him. He recognized him, and fell on his face, and said, “Is it you, my lord Elijah?” 1 Kings 18:7WEB
8 He answered him, “It is I. Go, tell your lord, ‘Behold, Elijah is here!’” 1 Kings 18:8WEB
9 He said, “How have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me? 1 Kings 18:9WEB
10 As YHWH your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom where my lord has not sent to seek you. When they said, ‘He is not here,’ he took an oath of the kingdom and nation that they didn’t find you. 1 Kings 18:10WEB
11 Now you say, ‘Go, tell your lord, “Behold, Elijah is here.”’ 1 Kings 18:11WEB
12 It will happen, as soon as I leave you, that YHWH’s Spirit 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, have feared YHWH from my youth. 1 Kings 18:12WEB
13 Wasn’t it told my lord what I did when Jezebel killed YHWH’s prophets, how I hid one hundred men of YHWH’s prophets with fifty to a cave, and fed them with bread and water? 1 Kings 18:13WEB
14 Now you say, ‘Go, tell your lord, “Behold, Elijah is here”.’ He will kill me.” 1 Kings 18:14WEB
15 Elijah said, “As YHWH of Armies lives, before whom I stand, I will surely show myself to him today.” 1 Kings 18:15WEB
16 So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him; and Ahab went to meet Elijah. 1 Kings 18:16WEB
17 When Ahab saw Elijah, Ahab said to him, “Is that you, you troubler of Israel?” 1 Kings 18:17WEB
18 He answered, “I have not troubled Israel, but you and your father’s house, in that you have forsaken YHWH’s commandments and you have followed the Baals. 1 Kings 18:18WEB
19 Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel to Mount Carmel, and four hundred fifty of the prophets of Baal, and four hundred of the prophets of the Asherah, who eat at Jezebel’s table.” 1 Kings 18:19WEB
20 So Ahab sent to all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together to Mount Carmel. 1 Kings 18:20WEB
21 Elijah came near to all the people, and said, “How long will you waver between the two sides? If YHWH is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him.” The people didn’t say a word. 1 Kings 18:21WEB
22 Then Elijah said to the people, “I, even I only, am left as a prophet of YHWH; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred fifty men. 1 Kings 18:22WEB
23 Let them therefore give us two bulls; and let them choose one bull for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under; and I will dress the other bull, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under it. 1 Kings 18:23WEB
24 You call on the name of your god, and I will call on YHWH’s name. The God who answers by fire, let him be God.” All the people answered, “What you say is good.” 1 Kings 18:24WEB
25 Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, “Choose one bull for yourselves, and dress it first, for you are many; and call on the name of your god, but put no fire under it.” 1 Kings 18:25WEB
26 They took the bull which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, “Baal, hear us!” But there was no voice, and nobody answered. They leaped about the altar which was made. 1 Kings 18:26WEB
27 At noon, Elijah mocked them, and said, “Cry aloud, for he is a god. Either he is deep in thought, or he has gone somewhere, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he sleeps and must be awakened.” 1 Kings 18:27WEB
28 They cried aloud, and cut themselves in their way with knives and lances until the blood gushed out on them. 1 Kings 18:28WEB
29 When midday was past, they prophesied until the time of the evening offering; but there was no voice, no answer, and nobody paid attention. 1 Kings 18:29WEB
30 Elijah said to all the people, “Come near to me!”; and all the people came near to him. He repaired YHWH’s altar that had been thrown down. 1 Kings 18:30WEB
31 Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom YHWH’s word came, saying, “Israel shall be your name.” 1 Kings 18:31WEB
32 With the stones he built an altar in YHWH’s name. He made a trench around the altar large enough to contain two seahs of seed. 1 Kings 18:32WEB
33 He put the wood in order, and cut the bull in pieces and laid it on the wood. He said, “Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering and on the wood.” 1 Kings 18:33WEB
34 He said, “Do it a second time;” and they did it the second time. He said, “Do it a third time;” and they did it the third time. 1 Kings 18:34WEB
35 The water ran around the altar; and he also filled the trench with water. 1 Kings 18:35WEB
36 At the time of the evening offering, Elijah the prophet came near and said, “YHWH, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word. 1 Kings 18:36WEB
37 Hear me, YHWH, hear me, that this people may know that you, YHWH, are God, and that you have turned their heart back again.” 1 Kings 18:37WEB
38 Then YHWH’s fire fell and consumed the burnt offering, the wood, the stones, and the dust; and it licked up the water that was in the trench. 1 Kings 18:38WEB
39 When all the people saw it, they fell on their faces. They said, “YHWH, he is God! YHWH, he is God!” 1 Kings 18:39WEB
40 Elijah said to them, “Seize the prophets of Baal! Don’t let one of them escape!” They seized them; and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and killed them there. 1 Kings 18:40WEB
41 Elijah said to Ahab, “Get up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of abundance of rain.” 1 Kings 18:41WEB
42 So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he bowed himself down on the earth, and put his face between his knees. 1 Kings 18:42WEB
43 He said to his servant, “Go up now and look toward the sea.” He went up and looked, then said, “There is nothing.” He said, “Go again” seven times. 1 Kings 18:43WEB
44 On the seventh time, he said, “Behold, a small cloud, like a man’s hand, is rising out of the sea.” He said, “Go up, tell Ahab, ‘Get ready and go down, so that the rain doesn’t stop you.’” 1 Kings 18:44WEB
45 In a little while, the sky grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel. 1 Kings 18:45WEB
46 YHWH’s hand was on Elijah; and he tucked his cloak into his belt and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel. 1 Kings 18:46WEB
