1 Kings 18:3-5
Evangelical Heritage Version
3 Ahab had summoned his servant Obadiah, the palace administrator. Obadiah was devoted to serving[a] the Lord. 4 When Jezebel was exterminating the prophets of the Lord, Obadiah had taken one hundred prophets and kept them hidden in two caves, fifty in each cave, and he provided food and water for them.
5 Ahab said to Obadiah, “Go through the land to all the springs and all the streams. Maybe we will find enough grass so that we can keep the horses and mules alive, and we will not have to slaughter the cattle.”
