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

Verse 6 is found in chapter 18 of 1 Kings. After a long period of drought, God commands Elijah to present himself to Ahab and announces that he will send rain. Ahab and Obadiah search for food for the horses and mules, while Obadiah has secretly protected the Lord’s prophets from Jezebel’s persecution. The scene shows that even within Ahab’s administration there are people who fear God and act to preserve his prophets.

Und sie teilten sich ins Land, daß sie es durchzogen. Ahab zog allein auf einem Wege und Obadja auch allein den andern Weg.
Y partieron entre sí el país para recorrerlo: Achâb fue de por sí por un camino, y Abdías fue separadamente por otro.
Se repartieron el país para recorrerlo. Acab fue solo por un camino, y Abdías fue solo por otro.
Ils se partagèrent le pays pour le parcourir; Achab alla seul par un chemin, et Abdias alla seul par un autre chemin.
Spartirono adunque fra loro il paese, per andare attorno per esso; Achab andò per un cammino da parte, e Abdia per un altro cammino da parte.
E repartiram entre si a terra, para a percorrerem: Acabe foi à parte por um caminho, e Obadias também foi sozinho por outro caminho.
於是二人分地巡查, 亞哈 獨自走一路, 俄巴底 獨自走另一路。
