וַיֹּאמֶר אַחְאָב אֶל־עֹבַדְיָהוּ לֵךְ בָּאָרֶץ אֶל־כָּל־מַעְיְנֵי הַמַּיִם וְאֶל כָּל־הַנְּחָלִים אוּלַי נִמְצָא חָצִיר וּנְחַיֶּה סוּס וָפֶרֶד וְלוֹא נַכְרִית מֵהַבְּהֵמָֽה
And Ahab said unto Obadiah: ‘Go through the land, unto all the springs of water, and unto all the brooks; peradventure we may find grass and save the horses and mules alive, that we lose not all the beasts.’
וַֽיְחַלְּקוּ לָהֶם אֶת־הָאָרֶץ לַֽעֲבָר־בָּהּ אַחְאָב הָלַךְ בְּדֶרֶךְ אֶחָד לְבַדּוֹ וְעֹֽבַדְיָהוּ הָלַךְ בְּדֶרֶךְ־אֶחָד לְבַדּֽוֹ
So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself.
וַיְהִי עֹבַדְיָהוּ בַּדֶּרֶךְ וְהִנֵּה אֵלִיָּהוּ לִקְרָאתוֹ וַיַּכִּרֵהוּ וַיִּפֹּל עַל־פָּנָיו וַיֹּאמֶר הַאַתָּה זֶה אֲדֹנִי אֵלִיָּֽהוּ
And as Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him; and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said: ‘Is it thou, my lord Elijah?’
וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ אָנִי לֵךְ אֱמֹר לַאדֹנֶיךָ הִנֵּה אֵלִיָּֽהוּ
And he answered him: ‘It is I; go, tell thy lord: Behold, Elijah is here.’
וַיֹּאמֶר מֶה חָטָאתִי כִּֽי־אַתָּה נֹתֵן אֶֽת־עַבְדְּךָ בְּיַד־אַחְאָב לַהֲמִיתֵֽנִי
And he said: ‘Wherein have I sinned, that thou wouldest deliver thy servant into the hand of Ahab, to slay me?
