1 Phat chomkhat jou, gojuh louna kum thum alhin phat in, Pakajin Elijah kom’ah, “Chenlang Ahab lengpa kom’ah, ‘Pakaiyin ajuhsah vahding ahitai gatin,” ati.
Baada ya muda mrefu, katika mwaka wa tatu, neno la Bwana likamjia Eliya kusema, “Nenda ukajionyeshe kwa Ahabu na mimi nitanyesha mvua juu ya nchi.”
2 Hichun Elijah jong Ahab kom’ah achen ahi. A langkhat na Samaria khopia chun kel ana khoh lheh jing in ahi.
Kwa hiyo Eliya akaenda kujionyesha kwa Ahabu. Wakati huu njaa ilikuwa kali sana katika Samaria,
3 Hijeh chun Ahab chun khopi vesuija pang Obadiah chu ana kouvin ahi. Amachu chu Pakai nungjui dih tah ahi.
naye Ahabu alikuwa amemwita Obadia ambaye alikuwa msimamizi wa jumba lake la kifalme. (Obadia alimcha Bwana sana.
4 Jezebel’in Pakai themgao jouse tha gam sohkei ding ana got laichun, hiche Obadiah kitipa hin songko mun nia themgao jakhat ana huhdoh in ahi. Aman songko khatna mi som nga nga in ana sellin ama ho chu an le twi ana pen ahi.
Wakati Yezebeli alipokuwa akiwaua manabii wa Bwana, Obadia alikuwa amewachukua manabii mia moja na kuwaficha katika mapango mawili, hamsini kwenye kila moja na akawa akiwapa chakula na maji.)
5 Ahab in Obadiah kom’ah, “Chen lang gamsung jouse ga kholsoh kei jin twinah jouse gaven chuleh phaicham jouse jong gachon soh keijin, ijeh nem itileh ham hing pouna munkhat beh imudoh uva ka sakol holeh sakol pol phabep beh i-hinso thei khat diuham,” ati.
Ahabu alikuwa amemwambia Obadia, “Nenda katika nchi yote kwenye vijito vyote na mabonde. Huenda tunaweza kupata majani ya kuwalisha farasi na nyumbu wapate kuishi ili tusilazimike kuwaua hata mmoja wa wanyama wetu.”
6 Hitichun amani chu gamsung khol ding chun akihom khen lhonin, Ahab jong amatah akipan in gamkai lang khat cheh jonin aki homkhen lhon tan ahi.
Kwa hiyo wakagawanya nchi waliyokusudia kutafuta majani, Ahabu akaenda upande mmoja na Obadia upande mwingine.
7 Hitia chu Obadiah avale leh, photlot louvin Elijah chu ama komlang ahin jonin ahi. Obadiah chun amachu ahe peijing in, a angsung’ah abohkhup in ahi. Aman ajah’a, “Kapu Elijah na hilou haimo?” atileh,
Wakati Obadia alipokuwa akitembea njiani, Eliya akakutana naye. Obadia akamtambua, akamsujudia hadi nchi na kusema, “Je, hivi kweli ni wewe, bwana wangu Eliya?”
8 Elijah in, “Ka hinai tun chen lang napupa kom’ah, ‘Elijah hikom’ah aum’e’ ga tin,” ati.
Eliya akamjibu, “Ndiyo, nenda ukamwambie bwana wako Ahabu, ‘Eliya yuko hapa.’”
9 Ahivangin Obadiah chun, “Ipi pen tah’a koiman chonset na kaneiya, nangman na sohpa keima hi, Ahab khutna nei peh doh’a ama thasah ding neiti ham?” ati.
Obadia akamuuliza, “Ni kosa gani nimefanya, hata ukaamua kumkabidhi mtumishi wako mkononi mwa Ahabu ili aniue?
10 “Hingjing Pakai na Pathen min’a kasei ahi, kapu Ahab in nangma holnan leiset chunga lenggam jouse le nam jouse hi kolkim vella ahol soh ahitai. Elijah hikom ah aumpoi tihi ama kom alhut teng ule hiche lenggam mite chu aki hahsel sahji ahi.
Hakika kama Bwana Mungu wako aishivyo, hakuna taifa hata moja au ufalme ambapo bwana wangu hajamtuma mtu kukutafuta. Kila wakati taifa au ufalme walipodai kwamba haupo huko, aliwafanya waape kwamba hawakuweza kukupata.
11 Ahinla tun nangman napupa jah’a, ‘Elijah hikom ah aum’e’ ga tin neitin.
Lakini sasa unaniambia niende kwa bwana wangu na kusema, ‘Eliya yuko hapa.’

Sijui ni wapi Roho wa Bwana ataamua kukupeleka wakati nitakapokuacha. Kama nikienda kumwambia Ahabu na asikupate, ataniua. Hata hivyo mimi mtumishi wako nimemwabudu Bwana tangu ujana wangu.
13 Jezebel lengnun Pakai Themgao te thagam dia agot laiya, thilsoh chu koiman na jah’a aseilou ham? Keiman themgao ho jakhat chu songko nia kana seldoh’a an le twi kana peh ahi.
Je, hukusikia, bwana wangu, nilifanya nini wakati Yezebeli alipokuwa akiua manabii wa Bwana? Niliwaficha manabii wa Bwana mia moja katika mapango mawili, hamsini katika kila moja, nami nikawapatia chakula na maji.
14 Ahin tun nangin chenlang napupa jaha, ‘Elijah hikom ah aum’e,’ gatin nati. Hepu, hichu ka seileh Ahab in eitha teitei ding ahi,” ati.
Nawe sasa unaniambia niende kwa bwana wangu na kumwambia, ‘Eliya yuko hapa.’ Yeye ataniua!”
15 Ahinlah Elijah in, “Keima a-angsung’a kadin jing, Pakai thanei pen minna kihahsel’a kasei ahi, tuni tah’a hi Ahab chu keiman ka kimupi tei ding ahi,” ati.
Eliya akasema, “Kama Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote aishivyo, yeye ninayemtumikia, hakika nitajionyesha kwa Ahabu leo.”
16 Hijeh chun Obadiah in Ahab kom’ah, “Elijah ahung’e,” aga tin ahileh, Ahab chu Elijah toh kimuto dingin achen ahi.
Basi Obadia akaenda kukutana na Ahabu na kumwambia, naye Ahabu akaenda kukutana na Eliya.
17 Ahab in amuphat in ahin samin, “Israel suboi jingpa nangma na hung hinam?” atin ahi.
Ahabu alipomwona Eliya, akamwambia, “Je, ni wewe, mtaabishaji wa Israeli?”
18 Elijah in adonbut in, “Keiman Israel kasuboi poi, nangma le na insung mite in na suhboi ahibouve, ajeh chu nangin Pakai thupeh nitlouvin, Baal semthu Pathen joh na hou uvin ahi.
Eliya akamjibu, “Mimi sijaitaabisha Israeli. Lakini wewe na jamaa ya baba yako ndio mnaofanya hivyo. Mmeziacha amri za Bwana na mkafuata Mabaali.
19 Tun Israelte jouse Carmel mol’ah khom in, Baal themgao jali le somnga toh Asherah themgao jali Jazebel in avah ho chu kouvin,” ati.
Sasa waite watu kutoka Israeli yote tukutane nao juu ya Mlima Karmeli. Nawe uwalete hao manabii wa Baali mia nne na hamsini na hao manabii mia nne wa Ashera, walao chakula mezani mwa Yezebeli.”
20 Hiti chun Ahab in Israel mipi hole themgao hochu Carmel mol ah akou khom in ahi.
Ndipo Ahabu akatuma ujumbe katika Israeli yote na kuwakusanya manabii hao juu ya mlima Karmeli.
21 Hichun Elijah chu amaho masang ah ading doh in, “Phat i-chanpi hi lunggel khenna nei louva lungni pu’a naum jom jing nahlai diuham? Pakai hi Pathen ahi natiu leh jui jeng’un, ahinla Baal hi pathen ahi natiu leh jui jeng’un,” atin ahi. Ahinlah mipi chu athipchet jeng un ahi.
Eliya akasimama mbele ya watu na kusema, “Mtasitasita katika mawazo mawili hadi lini? Ikiwa Bwana ndiye Mungu, mfuateni yeye; lakini ikiwa Baali ni Mungu, basi mfuateni yeye.” Lakini watu hawakusema kitu.
22 Hijou chun Elijah in amaho kom’ah asei tai, “Pakai themgao aki hinghoiya keima changbou kahi tai, Baal doi themgao ho vang jali le somnga alhing uve.
Kisha Eliya akawaambia, “Ni mimi peke yangu nabii wa Bwana aliyebaki, lakini Baali ana manabii mia nne na hamsini.
23 Tun bongchal ni hin kailut uvin lang, amahon bongchal khat kilhen masat uvintin, that’u henlang, asemtel jou teng uleh thinglom chung’a khun koi uhen, meivang ati theilou diu ahi. Kenjong bongchal khat joh chu that ing ting thinglom chunga koi jing tin ama vang mei kati lou ding ahi.
Leteni mafahali wawili. Wao na wajichagulie mmoja, wamkate vipande vipande na waweke juu ya kuni lakini wasiiwashie moto. Nitamwandaa huyo fahali mwingine na kumweka juu ya kuni lakini sitawasha moto.
24 Hijou teng chuleh na pathen’u min kou un, chule keiman ka Pakai min kakou ding ahi. Hiteng chuleh mei konga hin donbut pen penchu, Pathen dih ahi ti hetna ahi jenge,” ati. Hichu mipi hon a-nop peh tauvin ahi.
Kisha mliitie jina la mungu wenu, nami nitaliitia jina la Bwana Mungu yule ambaye atajibu kwa moto, huyo ndiye Mungu.” Kisha watu wote wakasema, “Hilo unalosema ni jema.”
25 Hichun Elijah in Baal themgao ho kom ah, “Nangho atamjo nahiuvin, bol masauvin,” ati. Hichun bongchal khat joh chu kilhen unlang kisem un, na pathen’u chu kou’un, amavang thinglom chung’a chun mei tih hih un,” ati.
Eliya akawaambia manabii wa Baali, “Chagueni mmoja kati ya hawa mafahali na mwe wa kwanza kumwandaa, kwa kuwa ninyi mko wengi sana. Liitieni jina la mungu wenu, lakini msiwashe moto.”
26 Hiti chun amahon bongchal khat chu alheng un, athat un, asem toh un, maicham chung achun akoiyun, jingkah’a pat sun gei jin, “O Baal neihouvun” tin apeng peng jeng tauvin ahi. Hijou chun amaho alam’un, maicham vella chun asuh chop atou chop jing un ahi.
Kwa hiyo wakamchukua yule fahali waliyepewa, nao wakamwandaa. Kisha wakaliitia jina la Baali kutoka asubuhi hadi adhuhuri, wakapiga kelele, “Ee Baali, utujibu!” Lakini hapakuwa na jibu; hakuna aliyejibu. Nao wakacheza kuizunguka madhabahu waliyoijenga.
27 Sun kim ahung hi phat’in, Elijah chun amaho chu atot in, “Na hasap jep’u ngai inte ajeh chu ama pathen ahin, asun imut phat ahi loule, aki choldo phat ahilou leh akhol jin pet ahiloule, a imut pet hija suhkhah ngai himai thei ahi,” ati peh’e.
Wakati wa adhuhuri, Eliya akaanza kuwadhihaki, akisema, “Pigeni kelele zaidi! Hakika yeye ni mungu! Labda amezama katika mawazo mazito, au ana shughuli nyingi, au amesafiri. Labda amelala usingizi mzito, naye ni lazima aamshwe.”
28 Hijeh chun amahon, ahasap cheh, aha sap cheh jeng un chuleh achon na’u dungjuijin chemcha le chamjam in athi’u ahung kikhodoh masang sen aki at-chen chen jeng un ahi.
Kwa hiyo wakapiga kelele zaidi na kama ilivyokuwa desturi yao wakajichanja wenyewe kwa visu na vyembe, mpaka damu ikachuruzika.
29 Hiti chun nilhah lam kilhai phatdon geiyin akap’un apengun, ahivangin, ogin ima la aja pouvin i-macha donbut na amu deh pouvin ahi.
Adhuhuri ikapita, nao wakaendelea na utabiri wao wa kiwazimu mpaka wakati wa dhabihu ya jioni. Lakini hapakuwa na jibu, hakuna aliyejibu, hakuna aliyeangalia.
30 Chutah chun Elijah jong chun mipi jouse jah’a, “Nei hin nai lut uvin,” atileh mipi abonchauvin ahenga ahung ki khinlut soh tauve. Hichun Elijah chun Pakai maicham akivo chimsa chu asem phan ahi.
Kisha Eliya akawaambia watu wote, “Sogeeni karibu nami.” Watu wote wakamkaribia, naye akakarabati madhabahu ya Bwana, ambayo ilikuwa imevunjwa.
31 Hichun aman Israel phungkhat cheh thalheng dingin songtum somle ni ana lhoh khom’in ahi.
Eliya akachukua mawe kumi na mawili, moja kwa ajili ya kila kabila la wana wa Yakobo, ambaye neno la Bwana lilimjia, likisema, “Jina lako litakuwa Israeli.”
32 Chuleh song tumho chunga chun Pakai min in maicham anathah semin ahi.
Kwa mawe hayo, akajenga madhabahu katika jina la Bwana, na akachimba handaki kuizunguka, ukubwa wa kutosha vipimo viwili vya mbegu.
33 Elijah chun thinglom jong chu agol gol in ajamin chuin bongchal chu asemtel tel’in, thinglom chunga chun ajamtan ahi. Hichun Elijah in asei jin, “Twi dimset set bel li gadom uvin lang, pumgo thilto chung le thinglom chunga chun chap kot sohkei jun,” ati.
Akapanga kuni, akamkata yule fahali vipande vipande na kuvipanga juu ya kuni. Kisha akawaambia, “Jazeni mapipa manne maji na kuyamwaga juu ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa na juu ya kuni.”
34 Hichu aboljou un, Elijah in, “Bol kit uvin,” atin ahileh ama hon avellin abolkit tauve. Aman asol kit’in, “Thumvei lhin nan ga bol kit uvin,” atia ahileh mihon jong athumvei lhinan abolkit tauve.
Akawaambia, “Fanyeni hivyo tena.” Nao wakafanya hivyo tena. Akaagiza, “Fanyeni kwa mara ya tatu.” Nao wakafanya hivyo kwa mara ya tatu.
35 Hiti chun maicham kimvel a chun twi along dimset tan, twilam jong chu twi adimset tan ahi.
Maji yakatiririka kuizunguka madhabahu na hata kujaza lile handaki.
36 Nilhah lang pumgo thilto phat donin, Elijah themgao pachu maicham muna akal touvin atao tan ahi. “Vo Pakai Abraham Pathen, Isaac Pathen, Jacob Pathen tuni nikho’a hin nangma hi Israel Pathen nahina leh keima hi nasohpa kahina hinphong doh in, hicheho jouse hi nangma thupeh’a kana bol ahi jong hi hinphong doh in.
Wakati wa kutoa dhabihu ya jioni, nabii Eliya akasogea mbele na kuomba, akisema: “Ee Bwana, Mungu wa Abrahamu, na Isaki na Israeli, ijulikane leo kwamba wewe ndiye Mungu katika Israeli na ya kwamba mimi ni mtumishi wako na nimefanya mambo haya yote kwa neno lako.
37 “Vo Pakai neihin donbut in! Hiche mite hin nangma hi Pakai Pathen na hin chule nang in alungthim’u hi nanga dinga nale heipeh’u ahitai tihi ahet doh diu ahi,” ati.
Unijibu mimi, Ee Bwana, nijibu mimi, ili watu hawa wajue kwamba wewe, Ee Bwana, ndiwe Mungu, na kwamba unaigeuza mioyo yao ikurudie tena.”
38 Chutah chun Pakaiya konin meikong ahung lenglhan, pumgo thilto bongchal sa chu aka vam jengin, thinglom jong akavam jeng in, leivui jong aleo go jengin, twilam’a twivei jeng jong chu ahul go hel jing in ahi.
Kisha moto wa Bwana ukashuka na kuiteketeza ile dhabihu, zile kuni, yale mawe, ule udongo, na pia kuramba yale maji yaliyokuwa ndani ya handaki.
39 Mipin hiche thilsoh hi amudoh phat uvin, amai’u tol’ah asulut cheh uvin hitin aseitauve, “Pakai amahi Pathen ahi, ahiye, Pakai hi Pathen ahi,” atiuve.
Wakati watu wote walipoona hili, wakaanguka kifudifudi na kulia, “Bwana: yeye ndiye Mungu! Bwana: yeye ndiye Mungu!”
40 Hijou chun Elijah in mipi ho chu thu apen, “Baal themgao hochu man’un, khatcha jong lhaso hih’un,” ati. Hichun mipi hon amaho chu aman’un, Elijah in Kishon phaichama apui suh in abonchauvin athat gam tan ahi.
Kisha Eliya akawaamuru, “Wakamateni hao manabii wa Baali. Msimwache hata mmoja atoroke!” Wakawakamata, naye Eliya akawaleta mpaka Bonde la Kishoni na kuwachinja huko.
41 Chuin Elijah chun Ahab komah, “Chenlang an ga nen lang twi ga don tan ajeh chu keiman gojuh na dinga van kithin husa kajatai,” ati.
Eliya akamwambia Ahabu, “Nenda, ukale na kunywa, kwa kuwa kuna sauti ya mvua kubwa.”
42 Hitichun Ahab jong achen an anen twi adon in ahi. Ahinla Elijah chu Carmel molchunga akaldoh in, tol achun akun chah kheh in, akhup teni kikah’a amai asulut in, akun kheh in ahi.
Hivyo Ahabu akaondoka ili kula na kunywa. Lakini Eliya akapanda kileleni mwa Karmeli, akasujudu na akaweka kichwa chake katikati ya magoti yake.
43 Chuin asohpa jah’a, “Chen lang twikhanglen lam khu gave tan,” ati. Hichun asohpa jong achen agaven, Elijah kom a ahung kile kit in “Ima kamupoi” ati. Sagivei jen Elijah chun achea aga vet ding'in anasollin ahi.
Akamwambia mtumishi wake, “Nenda ukatazame kuelekea bahari.” Akaenda na kutazama. Akasema, “Hakuna kitu chochote huko.” Mara saba Eliya akasema, “Nenda tena.”
44 Asagi vei channa chun asoh pan hitin aseiye, “Vetan, meilhang neo cha mihem khut phang tibep khat hi twikhanglen na konin ahung ki tung doh’e,” ati. Chuphat in Elijah chun asohpa jah’a, “Ahab kom achun cheloijin lang hitin hin ga seipeh in, ‘Na sakol kangtalai ah chun kaldoh inlang na inlanga cheloijin achuti louva ahile geisang le chun gojuh in na lap ding, nache theilou ding ahi, ga tipeh in,” ati.
Mara ya saba, mtumishi akaleta taarifa, “Wingu dogo kama mkono wa mwanadamu linainuka kutoka baharini.” Hivyo Eliya akasema, “Nenda ukamwambie Ahabu, ‘Tandika gari lako na ushuke kabla mvua haijakuzuia.’”
45 Hichejou jou chun, van ahung thimcheh cheh jengin, meilom ahung kikhom khom jeng tan hui ahung nungpan tai, chuin go ha juh in ahung jun ahi. Ahab chu asakol kangtalai akitol in Jezreel henglam’ah gangtah in achetan ahi.
Wakati ule ule anga likawa jeusi kwa mawingu, upepo ukainuka na mvua kubwa ikanyesha, naye Ahabu akaenda zake Yezreeli.
46 Hichun Pakaiyin Elijah chu thahatna jat chombeh apen, aman jong atai akigah in, Ahab masang’ah ana kheltan in Jezreel kot phunga a ana lam tin kittan ahi.
Nguvu za Bwana zikamjia Eliya, naye akajikaza viuno, akakimbia mbele ya Ahabu njia yote hadi maingilio ya Yezreeli.
