16 Abdia dunque andò a trovare Achab, e gli fece l’ambasciata; e Achab andò incontro ad Elia.

17 E, non appena Achab vide Elia, gli disse: "Sei tu colui che mette sossopra Israele?"

18 Elia rispose: "Non io metto sossopra Israele, ma tu e la casa di tuo padre, perché avete abbandonati i comandamenti dell’Eterno, e tu sei andato dietro ai Baali.
