The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine): Et ait rursus Elias ad populum : Ego remansi propheta Domini solus : prophetæ autem Baal quadringenti et quinquaginta viri sunt.
Septuagint (Swete): καὶ εἶπεν Ἠλειοὺ πρὸς τὸν λαόν Ἐγὼ ὑπολέλειμμαι προφήτης τοῦ κυρίου μονώτατος, καὶ οἱ προφῆται τοῦ Βάαλ τετρακόσιοι καὶ πεντήκοντα ἄνδρες, καὶ οἱ προφῆται τοῦ ἄλσους τετρακόσιοι·
Hebrew (WLC): וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֵלִיָּ֨הוּ֙ אֶל הָעָ֔ם אֲנִ֞י נוֹתַ֧רְתִּי נָבִ֛יא לַיהוָ֖ה לְבַדִּ֑י וּנְבִיאֵ֣י הַבַּ֔עַל אַרְבַּע מֵא֥וֹת וַחֲמִשִּׁ֖ים אִֽישׁ

Haydock's commentary

I. Hebrew repeats "I," to make the contrast more striking. Elias alone was present, in this assembly, as the prophet of the Lord. (Haydock)

He knew that Abdias had preserved 100: but they were concealed.

Men. The other 400 of Jezabel did not appear.
