21:17-22 Elijah delivered the Lord’s sentence against Ahab just as he was about to take possession of the vineyard.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
Have you found me, my enemy?
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Ahab to/towards ʼĒliy\sup yāh\sup* the,found,me enemy,my and=he/it_said found because sold,you for=doing the,evil in/on=both_eyes_of YHWH )
Ahab uses this question to express anger toward Elijah. That Elijah “found” Ahab likely refers to Elijah discovering Ahab’s actions, not to finding his physical location. Alternate translation: “You have found me, my enemy!” or “You have discovered what I have done, my enemy!” (See also: figs-explicit)
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
you have sold yourself to do what is evil
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Ahab to/towards ʼĒliy\sup yāh\sup* the,found,me enemy,my and=he/it_said found because sold,you for=doing the,evil in/on=both_eyes_of YHWH )
A person being committed to doing what is evil is spoken of as if that person had sold himself to evil. Alternate translation: “you have dedicated yourself to doing what is evil”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
what is evil in the sight of Yahweh
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said Ahab to/towards ʼĒliy\sup yāh\sup* the,found,me enemy,my and=he/it_said found because sold,you for=doing the,evil in/on=both_eyes_of YHWH )
The phrase, “in the sight of” refers to someone’s opinion. See how you translated this in 1 Kings 11:6. Alternate translation: “what Yahweh considers to be evil”
