And now thou sayest, Go, tell thy lord, Behold, Elijah {is here}: and he shall slay me.

And Elijah said, {As} the LORD of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, I will surely shew myself unto him to day.

And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, {Art} thou he that troubleth Israel?

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.
