Sure, here's the WEB translation of: 
1 Kings 18:1: 
It happened after many days, that the word of Yahweh came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, Go, show yourself to Ahab; and I will send rain on the earth.

1 Kings 18:2: 
Elijah went to show himself to Ahab. The famine was sore in Samaria.

1 Kings 18:3: 
Ahab called Obadiah, who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared Yahweh greatly:

1 Kings 18:4: 
for it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of Yahweh, that Obadiah took one hundred prophets, and hid them by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.)

1 Kings 18:5: 
Ahab said to Obadiah, Go through the land, to all the springs of water, and to all the brooks: peradventure we may find grass and save the horses and mules alive, that we not lose all the animals.

1 Kings 18:6: 
So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself.

1 Kings 18:7: 
As Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said, Is it you, my lord Elijah?

1 Kings 18:8: 
He answered him, It is I: go, tell your lord, Behold, Elijah [is here].

1 Kings 18:9: 
He said, Wherein have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me?

1 Kings 18:10: 
As Yahweh your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom, where my lord has not sent to seek you: and when they said, He is not here, he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they didn't find you.

1 Kings 18:11: 
Now you say, Go, tell your lord, Behold, Elijah [is here].

1 Kings 18:12: 
It will happen, as soon as I am gone from you, that the Spirit of Yahweh will carry you I don't know where; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he can't find you, he will kill me: but I your servant fear Yahweh from my youth.

1 Kings 18:13: 
Wasn't it told my lord what I did when Jezebel killed the prophets of Yahweh, how I hid one hundred men of Yahweh's prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water?

1 Kings 18:14: 
Now you say, Go, tell your lord, Behold, Elijah [is here]; and he will kill me.

1 Kings 18:15: 
Elijah said, As Yahweh of Hosts lives, before whom I stand, I will surely show myself to him today.

1 Kings 18:16: 
So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him; and Ahab went to meet Elijah.

1 Kings 18:17: 
It happened, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said to him, Is it you, you troubler of Israel?

1 Kings 18:18: 
He answered, I have not troubled Israel; but you, and your father's house, in that you have forsaken the commandments of Yahweh, and you have followed the Baals.

1 Kings 18:19: 
Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel to Mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred fifty, and the prophets of the Asherah four hundred, who eat at Jezebel's table.

1 Kings 18:20: 
So Ahab sent to all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together to Mount Carmel.

1 Kings 18:21: 
Elijah came near to all the people, and said, "How long will you waver between the two sides? If Yahweh is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him." The people answered him not a word.

1 Kings 18:22: 
Then Elijah said to the people, "I, even I only, am left a prophet of Yahweh; but Baal's prophets are four hundred fifty men.

1 Kings 18:23: 
Let them therefore give us two bulls; and let them choose one bull for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under; and I will dress the other bull, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under.

1 Kings 18:24: 
You call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of Yahweh; and the God who answers by fire, let him be God." All the people answered, "It is well said."

1 Kings 18:25: 
Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, "Choose one bull for yourselves, and dress it first; for you are many; and call on the name of your god, but put no fire under it."

1 Kings 18:26: 
They took the bull which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any who answered. They leaped about the altar which was made.

1 Kings 18:27: 
It happened at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud; for he is a god: either he is musing, or he is gone aside, or he is on a journey, or peradventure he sleeps and must be awakened.

1 Kings 18:28: 
They cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lances, until the blood gushed out on them.

1 Kings 18:29: 
It was so, when midday was past, that they prophesied until the time of the offering of the [evening] offering; but there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any who regarded.

1 Kings 18:30: 
Elijah said to all the people, Come near to me; and all the people came near to him. He repaired the altar of Yahweh that was thrown down.

1 Kings 18:31: 
Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of Yahweh came, saying, Israel shall be your name.

1 Kings 18:32: 
With the stones he built an altar in the name of Yahweh; and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed.

1 Kings 18:33: 
He put the wood in order, and cut the bull in pieces, and laid it on the wood. He said, Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering, and on the wood.

1 Kings 18:34: 
He said, Do it the second time; and they did it the second time. He said, Do it the third time; and they did it the third time.

1 Kings 18:35: 
The water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water.

1 Kings 18:36: 
It happened at the time of the offering of the [evening] offering, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, Yahweh, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that you are God in Israel, and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word.

1 Kings 18:37: 
Hear me, Yahweh, hear me, that this people may know that you, Yahweh, are God, and [that] you have turned their heart back again.

1 Kings 18:38: 
Then the fire of Yahweh fell, and consumed the burnt offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.

1 Kings 18:39: 
When all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, Yahweh, he is God; Yahweh, he is God.

1 Kings 18:40: 
and Elijah said to them, Take the prophets of Baal; don't let one of them escape. They took them; and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and killed them there.

1 Kings 18:41: 
Elijah said to Ahab, Get you up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of abundance of rain.

1 Kings 18:42: 
So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he bowed himself down on the earth, and put his face between his knees.

1 Kings 18:43: 
He said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. He went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. He said, Go again seven times.

1 Kings 18:44: 
It happened at the seventh time, that he said, "Behold, a small cloud, like a man's hand, is rising out of the sea." He said, Go up, tell Ahab, Make ready [your chariot], and get you down, that the rain not stop you.

1 Kings 18:45: 
It happened in a little while, that the sky grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel:

1 Kings 18:46: 
and the hand of Yahweh was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.
