1 Reis 18:8 In-Context

6 Para isso dividiram o território que iam percorrer; Acabe foi numa direção e Obadias noutra.
7 Quando Obadias estava a caminho, Elias o encontrou. Obadias o reconheceu, inclinou-se até o chão e perguntou: “És tu mesmo, meu senhor Elias?”
8 “Sou”, respondeu Elias. “Vá dizer ao seu senhor: ‘Elias está aqui’.”
9 “O que eu fiz de errado”, perguntou Obadias, “para que entregues o teu servo a Acabe para ser morto?
10 Juro pelo nome do SENHOR, o teu Deus, que não há uma só nação ou reino aonde o rei, meu senhor, não enviou alguém para procurar por ti. E, sempre que uma nação ou reino afirmava que tu não estavas lá, ele os fazia jurar que não conseguiram encontrar-te.
