3 And Ahab called Obadiah (A)who was over the household. (Now Obadiah [a](B)feared Yahweh greatly. 4 And it happened that (C)when Jezebel was cutting down the prophets of Yahweh, Obadiah took one hundred prophets and hid them by fifties in a cave, and (D)sustained them with bread and water.) 5 Then Ahab said to Obadiah, “Go through the land to all the springs of water and to all the valleys; perhaps we will find grass and keep the horses and mules alive, and not have to cut down some of the cattle.”

3 and Ahab had summoned Obadiah, his palace administrator.(A) (Obadiah was a devout believer(B) in the Lord. 4 While Jezebel(C) was killing off the Lord’s prophets, Obadiah had taken a hundred prophets and hidden(D) them in two caves, fifty in each, and had supplied(E) them with food and water.) 5 Ahab had said to Obadiah, “Go through the land to all the springs(F) and valleys. Maybe we can find some grass to keep the horses and mules alive so we will not have to kill any of our animals.”(G)
