8And he answered him, I am: goe, tell thy lord, Behold, Eliiah is here. 9And he said, What haue I sinned, that thou wouldest deliuer thy seruant into the hand of Ahab, to slay mee? 10As the Lord thy God liueth, there is no nation or kingdome, whither my lord hath not sent to seeke thee: and when they said, He is not there, hee tooke an oath of the kingdome and nation, that they found thee not. 11And now thou sayest, Goe, tell thy lord, Behold, Eliiah is here. 12And it shall come to passe, as soone as I am gone from thee, that the spirit of the Lord shall cary thee whither I know not; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he cannot finde thee, he shall slay mee: but I thy seruant feare the Lord from my youth.
