1 Kings 18:16-21

[16] So Obadiah  to meet  Ahab,  and told  him: and Ahab  to meet  Elijah.  [17] And it came to pass, when Ahab  saw  Elijah,  that Ahab  said  unto him, Art thou he that troubleth  Israel?  [18] And he answered,  I have not troubled  Israel;  but thou, and thy father's  house,  in that ye have forsaken  the commandments  of the LORD,  Baalim.  [19] Now therefore send,  and gather  to me all Israel  unto mount  Carmel,  and the prophets  of Baal  four  hundred  and fifty,  and the prophets  of the groves  four  hundred,  which eat  at Jezebel's  table.  [20] So Ahab  sent  unto all the children  of Israel,  the prophets  together  unto mount  Carmel.  [21] And Elijah  came  unto all the people,  and said,  How long  halt  ye between two  opinions?  if the LORD  be God,  follow him: but if Baal,  him. And the people  answered  him not a word.
