1 Kings 18:17-19
New King James Version
17 Then it happened, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said to him, (A)“Is that you, O (B)troubler of Israel?”
18 And he answered, “I have not troubled Israel, but you and your father’s house have, (C)in that you have forsaken the commandments of the Lord and have followed the Baals. 19 Now therefore, send and gather all Israel to me on (D)Mount Carmel, the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal, (E)and the four hundred prophets of [a]Asherah, who [b]eat at Jezebel’s table.”

You have abandoned(C) the Lord’s commands and have followed the Baals. 19 Now summon(D) the people from all over Israel to meet me on Mount Carmel.(E) And bring the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal and the four hundred prophets of Asherah, who eat at Jezebel’s table.”(F)
