1 Kings 18:5-7
Living Bible
5 That same day, while Elijah was on the way to see King Ahab,[a] the king said to Obadiah, “We must check every stream and brook to see if we can find enough grass to save at least some of my horses and mules. You go one way and I’ll go the other, and we will search the entire land.”
6 So they did, each going alone. 7 Suddenly Obadiah saw Elijah coming toward him! Obadiah recognized him at once and fell to the ground before him.
“Is it really you, my lord Elijah?” he asked.

1 Kings 18:5-7
New International Version
5 Ahab had said to Obadiah, “Go through the land to all the springs(A) and valleys. Maybe we can find some grass to keep the horses and mules alive so we will not have to kill any of our animals.”(B) 6 So they divided the land they were to cover, Ahab going in one direction and Obadiah in another.
7 As Obadiah was walking along, Elijah met him. Obadiah recognized(C) him, bowed down to the ground, and said, “Is it really you, my lord Elijah?”
