And they divided the countries between them, that they might go round about them: Achab went one way, and Abdias another way by himself.

And they apportion to themselves the land, to pass over into it; Ahab hath gone in one way by himself, and Obadiah hath gone in another way by himself;

So they went through all the country, covering it between them; Ahab went in one direction by himself, and Obadiah went in another by himself.

So they divided the land between them to explore it; Ahab went one way alone, and Obadiah went another way alone.

And they divided the regions among themselves, so that they might travel through them. Ahab went one way alone, and Obadiah went another way by himself.

So they divided the land between them, to pass through it,.... And one took one part, and the other the other part:
Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself; Ahab not caring to trust any but Obadiah, who he knew was a faithful man, lest they should be bribed by those that had grass not to discover it.
