5Ahab 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.
6So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it: Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself.
7As 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?
8He answered him, It is I: go, tell your lord, Behold, Elijah [is here].
9He said, Wherein have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me?
10As 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.
11Now you say, Go, tell your lord, Behold, Elijah [is here].
