1 Kings 18:7 in Context — 1 Kings 18

5 Achab dit à Abdias: Va par le pays vers toutes les sources d’eau et vers tous les torrents; peut-être se trouvera-t-il de l’herbe, et nous conserverons la vie aux chevaux et aux mulets, et nous n’aurons pas besoin d’abattre du bétail.

6 Ils se partagèrent le pays pour le parcourir; Achab alla seul par un chemin, et Abdias alla seul par un autre chemin.

7 Comme Abdias était en route, voici, Élie le rencontra. Abdias, l’ayant reconnu, tomba sur son visage, et dit: Est-ce toi, mon seigneur Élie?

8 Il lui répondit: C’est moi; va, dis à ton maître: Voici Élie!

9 Et Abdias dit: Quel péché ai-je commis, pour que tu livres ton serviteur entre les mains d’Achab, qui me fera mourir?
