1 مُلُوك 17
| وَقَالَ إِيلِيَّا التَّشْبِيُّ مِنْ أَهْلِ جِلْعَادَ لأَخْآبَ: «حَيٌّ هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِي أَخْدُمُهُ، إِنَّهُ لَنْ يَهْطِلَ نَدىً وَلا مَطَرٌ فِي هَذِهِ السِّنِينَ، إِلّا حِينَ أُعْلِنُ ذَلِكَ». | ١ 1 |
Then said Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gil'ad, unto Achab, As the Lord the God of Israel liveth, before whom I have stood, there shall not be in these years dew or rain, except according to my word.
| وَأَمَرَ الرَّبُّ إِيلِيَّا: | ٢ 2 |
And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,
| «امْضِ مِنْ هُنَا وَاتَّجِهْ نَحْوَ الْمَشْرِقِ، وَاخْتَبِئْ عِنْدَ نَهْرِ كَرِيثَ الْمُقَابِلِ لِنَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ، | ٣ 3 |
Go away from here, and turn thyself eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Kerith, which is to the east of the Jordan.
| فَتَشْرَبَ مِنْ مِيَاهِهِ وَتَقْتَاتَ مِمَّا تُحْضِرُهُ لَكَ الْغِرْبَانُ الَّتِي أَمَرْتُهَا أَنْ تَعُولَكَ هُنَاكَ». | ٤ 4 |
And it shall be, that out of the brook shalt thou drink; and the ravens have I ordained to sustain thee there.
| فَانْطَلَقَ وَنَفَّذَ أَمْرَ الرَّبِّ، وَأَقَامَ عِنْدَ نَهْرِ كَرِيثَ مُقَابِلَ نَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ، | ٥ 5 |
And he went and did according to the word of the Lord; and he went and remained by the brook Kerith, that is to the east of the Jordan.
| فَكَانَتِ الْغِرْبَانُ تُحْضِرُ إِلَيْهِ الْخُبْزَ وَاللَّحْمَ صَبَاحاً وَمَسَاءً، وَكَانَ يَشْرَبُ مِنْ مَاءِ النَّهْرِ. | ٦ 6 |
And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening: and out of the brook he used to drink.
| وَمَا لَبِثَ أَنْ جَفَّ النَّهْرُ بَعْدَ زَمَنٍ، لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَهْطِلْ مَطَرٌ عَلَى الأَرْضِ. | ٧ 7 |
And it came to pass after a while that the brook dried up; because there had been no rain in the land.
| فَخَاطَبَ الرَّبُّ إِيلِيَّا: | ٨ 8 |
And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,
| «قُمْ وَتَوَجَّهْ إِلَى صِرْفَةَ التَّابِعَةِ لِصِيدُونَ، وَامْكُثْ هُنَاكَ، فَقَدْ أَمَرْتُ هُنَاكَ أَرْمَلَةً أَنْ تَتَكَفَّلَ بِإِعَالَتِكَ». | ٩ 9 |
Arise, go unto Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and remain there: behold, I have ordained there a widow-woman to sustain thee.
| فَذَهَبَ إِلَى صِرْفَةَ. وَعِنْدَمَا وَصَلَ إِلَى بَوَّابَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ شَاهَدَ امْرَأَةً تَجْمَعُ حَطَباً، فَقَالَ لَهَا: «هَاتِي لِي بَعْضَ الْمَاءِ فِي إِنَاءٍ لأَشْرَبَ». | ١٠ 10 |
So he arose and went to Zarephath; and when he came to the gate of the city, behold, there was there a widow-woman gathering sticks of wood: and he called her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
| وَفِيمَا هِيَ ذَاهِبَةٌ لِتُحْضِرَهُ نَادَاهَا ثَانِيَةً وَقَالَ: «هَاتِي لِي كِسْرَةَ خُبْزٍ مَعَكِ». | ١١ 11 |
And as she went to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thy hand.
| فَأَجَابَتْهُ: «حَيٌّ هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَدَيَّ كَعْكَةٌ، إِنَّمَا حَفْنَةُ دَقِيقٍ فِي الْجَرَّةِ، وَقَلِيلٌ مِنَ الزَّيْتِ فِي قَارُورَةٍ. وَهَا أَنَا أَجْمَعُ بَعْضَ عِيدَانِ الْحَطَبِ لِآخُذَهَا وَأُعِدَّ لِي ولاِبْنِي طَعَاماً نَأْكُلُهُ ثُمَّ نَمُوتُ». | ١٢ 12 |
And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have nothing baked, but a handful of meal in a jar, and a little oil in a cruise: and, behold, I am gathering a couple of sticks, that I may go in and prepare it for me and my son; and when we have eaten it, we shall have to die.
| فَقَالَ لَهَا إِيلِيَّا: «لا تَخَافِي. امْضِي وَاصْنَعِي كَمَا قُلْتِ، وَلَكِنْ أَعِدِّي لِي مِنْهُ كَعْكَةً صَغِيرَةً أَوَّلاً وَأَحْضِرِيهَا لِي، ثُمَّ اعْمَلِي لَكِ ولاِبْنِكِ أَخِيراً، | ١٣ 13 |
And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said; but make me thereof a little cake at first, and bring it out unto me, and for thee and for thy son shalt thou prepare [something] afterward.
| لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: إِنَّ جَرَّةَ الدَّقِيقِ لَنْ تَفْرُغَ، وَقَارُورَةَ الزَّيْتِ لَنْ تَنْقُصَ، إِلَى الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي يُرْسِلُ فِيهِ الرَّبُّ مَطَراً عَلَى وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ». | ١٤ 14 |
For thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, The jar of meal shall not fail, neither shall the cruise of oil diminish, until the day that the Lord giveth rain upon the face of the earth.
| فَرَاحَتْ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهَا وَنَفَّذَتْ كَلامَ إِيلِيَّا، فَتَوَافَرَ لَهَا طَعَامٌ لِتَأْكُلَ هِيَ وَابْنُهَا وَإِيلِيَّا لِمُدَّةٍ طَوِيلَةٍ. | ١٥ 15 |
And she went and did according to the word of Elijah: and she, and he, and her household, did eat [many] days.
| جَرَّةُ الدَّقِيقِ لَمْ تَفْرُغْ، وَقَارُورَةُ الزَّيْتِ لَمْ تَنْقُصْ، تَمَاماً كَمَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ عَلَى لِسَانِ إِيلِيَّا. | ١٦ 16 |
The jar of meal failed not, nor did the cruise of oil diminish, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken through means of Elijah.
| وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ زَمَنٍ أَنَّ ابْنَ الْمَرْأَةِ صَاحِبَةِ الْبَيْتِ اشْتَدَّ عَلَيْهِ الْمَرَضُ، وَمَاتَ، | ١٧ 17 |
And it came to pass after these events, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness became very severe, until that at length there was no breath left in him.
| فَقَالَتْ لإِيِليَّا: «أَيُّ ذَنْبٍ جَنَيْتُهُ بِحَقِّكَ يَا رَجُلَ اللهِ؟ هَلْ جِئْتَ إِليَّ لِتُذَكِّرَنِي بِإِثْمِي وَتُمِيتَ ابْنِي؟» | ١٨ 18 |
And she said unto Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O man of God? thou art come unto me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son!
| فَقَالَ لَهَا: «أَعْطِينِي ابْنَكِ». وَأَخَذَهُ مِنْهَا وَصَعِدَ بِهِ إِلَى الْعُلِّيَّةِ الَّتِي كَانَ مُقِيماً فِيهَا وَأَضْجَعَهُ عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ، | ١٩ 19 |
And he said unto her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into the upper chamber, in which he abode, and he laid him upon his own bed.
| وَاسْتَغَاثَ بِالرَّبِّ مُتَضَرِّعاً: «أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهِي، أَإِلَى الأَرْمَلَةِ الَّتِي أَنَا نَازِلٌ عِنْدَهَا تُسِيءُ أَيْضاً وَتُمِيتُ ابْنَهَا؟» | ٢٠ 20 |
And he called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son?
| ثُمَّ تَمَدَّدَ إِيلِيَّا عَلَى جُثَّةِ الْوَلَدِ ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَابْتَهَلَ إِلَى الرَّبِّ: «يَا رَبُّ إِلَهِي، أَرْجِعْ نَفْسَ هَذَا الْوَلَدِ إِلَيْهِ». | ٢١ 21 |
And he stretched himself out over the child three times, and called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, let, I pray thee, the soul of this child return again within him.
| فَاسْتَجَابَ الرَّبُّ دُعَاءَ إِيلِيَّا، وَرَجَعَتْ نَفْسُ الْوَلَدِ إِلَيْهِ فَعَاشَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And the Lord listened to the voice of Elijah: and the soul of the child returned into him, and he revived.
| فَأَخَذَ إِيلِيَّا الْوَلَدَ وَنَزَلَ بِهِ مِنَ الْعُلِّيَّةِ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ، وَسَلَّمَهُ إِلَى أُمِّهِ، وَقَالَ لَهَا: «انْظُرِي، إِنَّ ابْنَكِ حَيٌّ» | ٢٣ 23 |
And Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the upper chamber into the house, and gave him unto his mother; and Elijah said, See, thy son liveth.
| فَقَالَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ لإِيلِيَّا: «الآنَ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ رَجُلُ اللهِ، وَأَنَّ اللهَ يَنْطِقُ عَلَى لِسَانِكَ بِالْحَقِّ». | ٢٤ 24 |
And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this do I know, that thou art a man of God, and the word of the Lord in thy mouth is truth.
