1 Kings 18:13-15
New English Translation
13 Certainly my master is aware of what I did[a] when Jezebel was killing the Lord’s prophets. I hid 100 of the Lord’s prophets in two caves in two groups of fifty and I brought them food and water. 14 Now you say, ‘Go and say to your master, “Elijah is back,”’[b] but he will kill me.” 15 But Elijah said, “As certainly as the Lord of Heaven’s Armies[c] lives (whom I serve),[d] I will make an appearance before him today.”
