Exegesis

The conjunction ki {כִּי | kî} marks the result clause, where the participle noten {נֹתֵן | nō-ˈṯēn} ‘giving’ with attah {אַתָּה | ʾă-ˈtā} ‘you’ emphasizes ongoing agency.

The direct object marker et {אֶת | ʾet} foregrounds avdekha {עַבְדְּךָ | ʿaḇ-dĕ-ˈkā} ‘your servant’, highlighting Obadiah’s humility.

In context1 Kings 18:9

And he said, “What have I sinned , that you are giving your servant into the hand of Ahab to put me to death?”
