- 8He answered him, It is I: go, tell your lord, Behold, Elijah [supplied: is here].
- 9He said, Wherein have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me?
- 10As Yahweh your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom, where my lord has not sent to seek you: and when they said, He is not here, he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they didn't find you.
