14 Et maintenant tu dis: Va, dis à ton maître: Voici Élie! Il me tuera.

15 Mais Élie dit: L’Éternel des armées, dont je suis le serviteur, est vivant! Aujourd’hui je me présenterai devant Achab.

16 Abdias, étant allé à la rencontre d’Achab, l’informa de la chose. Et Achab se rendit au-devant d’Élie.

17 A peine Achab aperçut-il Élie qu’il lui dit: Est-ce toi, qui jettes le trouble en Israël?

18 Élie répondit: Je ne trouble point Israël; c’est toi, au contraire, et la maison de ton père, puisque vous avez abandonné les commandements de l’Éternel et que tu es allé après les Baals.
