| 1st-Kings 18:1 | And the days are many, and the word of Jehovah hath been unto Elijah in the third year, saying, `Go, appear unto Ahab, and I give rain on the face of the ground;` | 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. | 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. |
| 1st-Kings 18:2 | and Elijah goeth to appear unto Ahab. And the famine is severe in Samaria, | And Elias went to shew himself to Achab, and there was a grievous famine in Samaria. | So Elijah went to let Ahab see him. Now there was no food to be had in Samaria. |
| 1st-Kings 18:3 | and Ahab calleth unto Obadiah, who [is] over the house and Obadiah hath been fearing Jehovah greatly, | And Achab called Abdias the governor of his house: now Abdias feared the Lord very much. | And Ahab sent for Obadiah, the controller of the king's house. (Now Obadiah had the fear of the Lord before him greatly; |
| 1st-Kings 18:4 | and it cometh to pass, in Jezebel`s cutting off the prophets of Jehovah, that Obadiah taketh a hundred prophets, and hideth them, fifty men in a cave, and hath sustained 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. | 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.) |
| 1st-Kings 18:5 | and Ahab saith unto Obadiah, `Go through the land, unto all fountains of waters, and unto all the brooks, if so be we find hay, and keep alive horse and mule, and do not cut off any of the cattle.` | 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. | 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. |
| 1st-Kings 18:6 | And they apportion to themselves the land, to pass over into it; Ahab hath gone in one way by himself, and Obadiah hath gone in 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. | 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. |
| 1st-Kings 18:7 | and Obadiah [is] in the way, and lo, Elijah to meet him; and he discerneth him, and falleth on his face, and saith, `Art thou he 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? | 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? |
| 1st-Kings 18:8 | And he saith to him, `I [am]; go, say to thy lord, Lo, Elijah.` | And he answered: I am. Go, and tell thy master: Elias is here. | And Elijah in answer said, It is I; now go and say to your lord, Elijah is here. |
| 1st-Kings 18:9 | And he saith, `What have I sinned, that thou art giving thy servant into the hand of Ahab to put me to death? | And he said: What have I sinned, that thou wouldst deliver me thy servant into the hand of Achab, that he should kill me? | 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? |
| 1st-Kings 18:10 | Jehovah thy God liveth, if there is a nation and kingdom whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee; and they said, He is not, then he caused the kingdom and the nation to swear, that it doth not find thee; | 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. | 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. |
| 1st-Kings 18:11 | and now, thou art saying, Go, say to thy lord, Lo, Elijah; | And now thou sayest to me: Go, and tell thy master: Elias is here. | And now you say, Go, say to your lord, Elijah is here. |
| 1st-Kings 18:12 | and it hath been, I go from thee, and the Spirit of Jehovah doth lift thee up, whither I know not, and I have come to declare to Ahab, and he doth not find thee, and he hath slain me; and thy servant is fearing Jehovah 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. | 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. |
| 1st-Kings 18:13 | `Hath it not been declared to my lord that which I have done in Jezebel`s slaying the prophets of Jehovah, that I hide of the prophets of Jehovah a hundred men, fifty by fifty in a cave, and sustained 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? | 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? |
| 1st-Kings 18:14 | and now thou art saying, Go, say to my lord, Lo, Elijah and he hath slain me!` | And now thou sayest: Go, and tell thy master: Elias is here: that he may kill me. | And now you say, Go and say to your Lord, Elijah is here; and he will put me to death. |
| 1st-Kings 18:15 | And Elijah saith, `Jehovah of Hosts liveth, before whom I have stood, surely to-day I appear unto him.` | And Elias said: As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whose face I stand, this day I will shew myself unto him. | And Elijah said, By the life of the Lord of armies, whose servant I am, I will certainly let him see me today. |
| 1st-Kings 18:16 | And Obadiah goeth to meet Ahab, and declareth [it] to him, and Ahab goeth to meet Elijah, | Abdias therefore went to meet Achab, and told him: and Achab came to meet Elias. | So Obadiah went to Ahab and gave him the news; and Ahab went to see Elijah. |
| 1st-Kings 18:17 | and it cometh to pass at Ahab`s seeing Elijah, that Ahab saith unto him, `Art thou he the troubler of Israel?` | And when he had seen him, he said: Art thou he that troublest Israel? | And when he saw Elijah, Ahab said to him, Is it you, you troubler of Israel? |
| 1st-Kings 18:18 | 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; | 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. | 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. |
| 1st-Kings 18:19 | 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.` | Nevertheless send now, and gather unto me all Israel, unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, who eat at Jezabel's table. | 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. |
| 1st-Kings 18:20 | And Ahab sendeth among all the sons of Israel, and gathereth the prophets unto the mount of Carmel; | Achab sent to all the children of Israel, and gathered together the prophets unto mount Carmel. | So Ahab sent for all the children of Israel, and got the prophets together at Mount Carmel. |
| 1st-Kings 18:21 | 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. | And Elias coming to all the people, said: How long do you halt between two sides? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people did not answer him a word. | And Elijah came near to all the people and said, How long will you go on balancing between two opinions? if the Lord is God, then give worship to him; but if Baal, give worship to him. And the people said not a word in answer. |
| 1st-Kings 18:22 | And Elijah saith unto the people, `I I have been left a prophet of Jehovah by myself; and the prophets of Baal [are] four hundred and fifty men; | And Elias said again to the people: I only remain a prophet of the Lord: but the prophets of Baal are four hundred and fifty men. | Then Elijah said to the people, I, even I, am the only living prophet of the Lord; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men. |
| 1st-Kings 18:23 | and let them give to us two bullocks, and they choose for themselves the one bullock, and cut it in pieces, and place [it] on the wood, and place no fire; and I I prepare the other bullock, and have put [it] on the wood, and fire I do not place; | 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. | 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. |
| 1st-Kings 18:24 | and ye have called in the name of your god, and I I call in the name of Jehovah, and it hath been, the god who answereth by fire He [is] the God.` And all the people answer and say, `Good [is] the word.` | Call ye on the names of your gods, and I will call on the name of my Lord: and the God that shall answer by fire, let him be God. And all the people answering said: A very good proposal. | 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. And all the people in answer said, It is well said. |
| 1st-Kings 18:25 | And Elijah saith to the prophets of Baal, `Choose for you the one bullock, and prepare first, for ye [are] the multitude, and call ye in the name of your god, and place no fire.` | Then Elias said to the prophets of Baal: Choose you one bullock and dress it first, because you are many: and call on the names of your gods, but put no fire under. | Then Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, Take one ox for yourselves and get it ready first, for there are more of you; and make your prayers to your god, but put no fire under. |
| 1st-Kings 18:26 | And they take the bullock that [one] gave to them, and prepare, and call in the name of Baal from the morning even till the noon, saying, `O Baal, answer us!` and there is no voice, and there is none answering; and they leap on the altar that one had made. | And they took the bullock which he gave them, and dressed it: and they called on the name of Baal from morning even till noon, saying: O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered: and they leaped over the altar that they had made. | So they took the ox which was given them, and made it ready, crying out to Baal from morning till the middle of the day, and saying, O Baal, give ear to us. But there was no voice and no answer. And they were jumping up and down before the altar they had made. |
| 1st-Kings 18:27 | And it cometh to pass, at noon, that Elijah playeth on them, and saith, `Call with a loud voice, for he [is] a god, for he is meditating, or pursuing, or on a journey; it may be he is asleep, an doth awake.` | And when it was now noon, Elias jested at them, saying: Cry with a louder voice: for he is a God, and perhaps he is talking, or is in an inn, or on a journey, or perhaps he is asleep, and must be awaked. | And in the middle of the day, Elijah made sport of them, saying, Give louder cries, for he is a god; he may be deep in thought, or he may have gone away for some purpose, or he may be on a journey, or by chance he is sleeping and has to be made awake. |
| 1st-Kings 18:28 | And they call with a loud voice, and cut themselves, according to their ordinance, with swords and with spears, till a flowing of blood [is] on them; | So they cried with a loud voice, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till they were all covered with blood. | So they gave loud cries, cutting themselves with knives and swords, as was their way, till the blood came streaming out all over them. |
| 1st-Kings 18:29 | and it cometh to pass, at the passing by of the noon, that they feign themselves prophets till the going up of the present, and there is no voice, and there is none answering, and there is none attending. | And after midday was past, and while they were prophesying, the time was come of offering sacrifice, and there was no voice heard, nor did any one answer, nor regard them as they prayed: | And from the middle of the day they went on with their prayers till the time of the offering; but there was no voice, or any answer, or any who gave attention to them. |
| 1st-Kings 18:30 | And Elijah saith to all the people, `Come nigh unto me;` and all the people come nigh unto him, and he repaireth the altar of Jehovah that is broken down; | Elias said to all the people: Come se unto me. And the people coming near unto him, he repaired the altar of the Lord, that was broken down: | Then Elijah said to all the people, Come near to me; and all the people came near. And he put up again the altar of the Lord which had been broken down. |
| 1st-Kings 18:31 | and Elijah taketh twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of Jehovah was, saying, `Israel is thy name;` | And he took twelve stones according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the Lord came, saying: Israel shall be thy name. | And Elijah took twelve stones, the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the Lord had said, Israel will be your name: |
| 1st-Kings 18:32 | and he buildeth with the stones an altar, in the name of Jehovah, and maketh a trench, as about the space of two measures of seed, round about the altar. | And he built with the stones an altar to the name of the Lord: and he made a trench for water, of the breadth of two furrows round about the altar. | And with the stones he made an altar to the name of the Lord; and he made a deep drain all round the altar, great enough to take two measures of seed. |
| 1st-Kings 18:33 | And he arrangeth the wood, and cutteth in pieces the bullock, and placeth [it] on the wood, and saith, `Fill ye four pitchers of water, and pour on the burnt-offering, and on the wood; | And he laid the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid it upon the wood. | And he put the wood in order, and, cutting up the ox, put it on the wood. Then he said, Get four vessels full of water and put it on the burned offering and on the wood. And he said, Do it a second time, and they did it a second time; |
| 1st-Kings 18:34 | and he saith, `Do [it] a second time;` and they do [it] a second time; and he saith, `Do [it] a third time;` and they do [it] a third time; | And he said: Fill four buckets with water, and pour it upon the burnt offering, and upon the wood. And again he said: Do the same the second time. And when they had done it the second time, he said: Do the same also the third time. And they did so the third time. | And he said, Do it a third time, and they did it a third time. |
| 1st-Kings 18:35 | and the water goeth round about the altar, and also, the trench he hath filled with water. | And the water run round about the altar, and the trench was filled with water. | And the water went all round the altar, till the drain was full. |

| 1st-Kings 18:37 | answer me, O Jehovah, answer me, and this people doth know that Thou [art] Jehovah God; and Thou hast turned their heart backward.` | Hear me, O Lord, hear me: that this people may learn, that thou art the Lord God, and that thou hast turned their heart again. | Give me an answer, O Lord, give me an answer, so that this people may see that you are God, and that you have made their hearts come back again. |

| 1st-Kings 18:39 | And all the people see, and fall on their faces, and say, `Jehovah, He [is] the God, Jehovah, He [is] the God.` | And when all the people saw this, they fell on their faces, and they said: The Lord he is God, the Lord he is God. | And when the people saw it, they all went down on their faces, and said, The Lord, he is God, the Lord, he is God. |
