| 1st-Kings 18:1 | Now after a long time, the word of the Lord came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, Go and let Ahab see you, so that I may send rain on the earth. | And it came to pass after many days, that the word of the LORD came to Elijah in the third year, saying, Go, show thyself to Ahab; and I will send rain upon the earth. | After many days the word of the Lord came to Elias, in the third year, saying: Go and shew thyself to Achab, that I may give rain upon the face of the earth. |
| 1st-Kings 18:2 | So Elijah went to let Ahab see him. Now there was no food to be had in Samaria. | And Elijah went to show himself to Ahab. And there was a grievous famine in Samaria. | And Elias went to shew himself to Achab, and there was a grievous famine in Samaria. |
| 1st-Kings 18:3 | And Ahab sent for Obadiah, the controller of the king's house. (Now Obadiah had the fear of the Lord before him greatly; | And Ahab called Obadiah who was the governor of his house.

| 1st-Kings 18:4 | For when Jezebel was cutting off the prophets of the Lord, Obadiah took a hundred of them, and kept them secretly in a hole in the rock, fifty at a time, and gave them bread and water.) | For it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the LORD, that Obadiah took a hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.) | For when Jezabel killed the prophets of the Lord, he took a hundred prophets and hid them by fifty and fifty in caves, and fed them with bread and water. |
| 1st-Kings 18:5 | And Ahab said to Obadiah, Come, let us go through all the country, to all the fountains of water and all the rivers, and see if there is any grass to be had for the horses and the transport beasts, so that we may be able to keep some of the beasts from destruction. | And Ahab said to Obadiah, Go into the land, to all fountains of water, and to all brooks: it may be we may find grass to save the horses and mules alive, that we lose not all the beasts. | And Achab said to Abdias: Go into the land unto all fountains of waters, and into all valleys, to see if we can find grass, and save the horses and mules, that the beasts may not utterly perish. |
| 1st-Kings 18:6 | So they went through all the country, covering it between them; Ahab went in one direction by himself, and Obadiah went in another by himself. | So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself. | And they divided the countries between them, that they might go round about them: Achab went one way, and Abdias another way by himself. |
| 1st-Kings 18:7 | And while Obadiah was on his way, he came face to face with Elijah; and seeing who it was, he went down on his face and said, Is it you, my lord Elijah? | And as Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said, Art thou that my lord Elijah? | And as Abdias was in the way, Elias met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said: Art thou my lord Elias? |
| 1st-Kings 18:8 | And Elijah in answer said, It is I; now go and say to your lord, Elijah is here. | And he answered him, I am: go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here. | And he answered: I am. Go, and tell thy master: Elias is here. |
| 1st-Kings 18:9 | And he said, What sin have I done, that you would give up your servant into the hand of Ahab, and be the cause of my death? | And he said, What have I sinned, that thou wouldest deliver thy servant into the hand of Ahab to slay me? | And he said: What have I sinned, that thou wouldst deliver me thy servant into the hand of Achab, that he should kill me? |
| 1st-Kings 18:10 | By the life of the Lord your God, there is not a nation or kingdom where my lord has not sent in search of you; and when they said, He is not here; he made them take an oath that they had not seen you. | As the LORD thy God liveth, there is no nation nor kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee: and when they said, He is not there; he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they found thee not. | As the Lord thy God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee : and when all answered: He is not here: he took an oath of every kingdom and nation, because thou wast not found. |
| 1st-Kings 18:11 | And now you say, Go, say to your lord, Elijah is here. | And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here. | And now thou sayest to me: Go, and tell thy master: Elias is here. |
| 1st-Kings 18:12 | And straight away, when I have gone from you, the spirit of the Lord will take you away, I have no idea where, so that when I come and give word to Ahab, and he sees you not, he will put me to death: though I, your servant, have been a worshipper of the Lord from my earliest years. | And it will come to pass, as soon as I have gone from thee, that the Spirit of the LORD will carry thee whither I know not; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he cannot find thee, he will slay me: but I thy servant fear the LORD from my youth. | And when I am gone from thee, the spirit of the Lord will carry thee into a place that I know not: and I shall go in and tell Achab, and he not finding thee, will kill me: but thy servant feareth the Lord from his infancy. |
| 1st-Kings 18:13 | Has my lord not had word of what I did when Jezebel was putting the Lord's prophets to death? how I kept a hundred of them in a secret hole in the rock, fifty at a time, and gave them bread and water? | Was it not told my lord what I did when Jezebel slew the prophets of the LORD, how I hid a hundred men of the LORD'S prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water? | Hath it not been told thee, my lord, what I did when Jezabel killed the prophets of the Lord, how I hid a hundred men of the prophets of the Lord, by fifty and fifty in caves, and fed them with bread and water? |
| 1st-Kings 18:14 | And now you say, Go and say to your Lord, Elijah is here; and he will put me to death. | And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here: and he will slay me. | And now thou sayest: Go, and tell thy master: Elias is here: that he may kill me. |
| 1st-Kings 18:15 | And Elijah said, By the life of the Lord of armies, whose servant I am, I will certainly let him see me today. | And Elijah said, As the LORD of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, I will surely show myself to him to-day. | And Elias said: As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whose face I stand, this day I will shew myself unto him. |

| 1st-Kings 18:18 | 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. | And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the LORD, and thou hast followed Baalim. | And he said: I have not troubled Israel, but thou and thy father's house, who have forsaken the commandments of the Lord, and have followed Baalim. |

| 1st-Kings 18:23 | Now, let them give us two oxen; and let them take one for themselves, and have it cut up, and put it on the wood, but put no fire under it; I will get the other ox ready, and put it on the wood, and put no fire under it. | Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: | Let two bullocks be given us, and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces and lay it upon wood, but put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under it. |
| 1st-Kings 18:24 | And do you make prayers to your god, and I will make a prayer to the Lord: and it will be clear that the one who gives an answer by fire is God.
