In 1 Kings 21:17-29, especially verses 27-29, Ahab fasts and mourns over Elijah's prophecy concerning his posterity. God responds by not bringing about the calamity in Ahab's time.
Katika 1 Wafalme 21:17-29, hasa mistari ya 27-29, Ahabu anafunga na kuomboleza juu ya unabii wa Elia juu ya wazawa wake. Mungu anajibu kwa kutoleta msiba wakati Ahabu.
