1 Kings 17
1 And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the sojourners of Gilead, said to Ahab, As Jehovah, the God of Israel, lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.
ギレアデに居住れるテシベ人エリヤ、アハブに言ふ吾事ふるイスララエルの神ヱホバは活くわが言なき時は數年雨露あらざるべしと
2 And the word of Jehovah came to him, saying,
ヱホバの言彼に臨みて曰く
3 Get thee from here, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith that is before the Jordan.
爾此より往て東に赴きヨルダンの前にあるケリテ川に身を匿せ
4 And it shall be, that thou shall drink of the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.
爾其川の水を飮べし我鴉に命じて彼處にて爾を養はしむと
5 So he went and did according to the word of Jehovah, for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith that is before the Jordan.
彼往てヱホバの言の如く爲り即ち往てヨルダンの前にあるケリテ川に住り
6 And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening, and he drank of the brook.
彼の所に鴉朝にパンと肉亦夕にパンと肉を運べり彼は川に飮り
7 And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up because there was no rain in the land.
しかるに國に雨なかりければ數日の後其川涸ぬ
8 And the word of Jehovah came to him, saying,
ヱホバの言彼に臨みて曰
9 Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to sustain thee.
起てシドンに屬するザレバテに往て其處に住め視よ我彼處の嫠婦に命じて爾を養はしむと
10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, a widow was there gathering sticks. And he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel that I may drink.
彼起てザレパテに往けるが邑の門に至れる時一人の嫠婦の其處に薪を採ふを見たり乃ち之を呼て曰けるは請ふ器に少許の水を我に携來りて我に飮せよと
11 And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thy hand.
彼之を携きたらんとて往る時エリヤ彼を呼て言けるは請ふ爾の手に一口のパンを我に取きたれと
12 And she said, As Jehovah thy God lives, I do not have a cake, but a handful of meal in the jar, and a little oil in the cruse. And, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son that we may eat it, and die.
彼いひけるは爾の神ヱホバは活く我はパン無し只桶に一握の粉と瓶に少許の油あるのみ觀よ我は二の薪を採ふ我いりてわれとわが子のために調理て之をくらひて死んとす
13 And Elijah said to her, Fear not, go and do as thou have said. But make me of it a little cake first, and bring it forth to me, and afterward make for thee and for thy son.
エリヤ彼に言ふ懼るるなかれ往て汝がいへる如くせよ但し先其をもてわが爲に小きパン一を作りて我に携きたり其後爾のためと爾の子のために作るべし
14 For thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel, The jar of meal shall not be used up, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that Jehovah sends rain upon the earth.
其はヱホバの雨を地の面に降したまふ日までは其桶の粉は竭ず其瓶の油は絶ずとイスラエルの神ヱホバ言たまへばなりと
15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah. And she, and he, and her house, ate many days.
彼ゆきてエリヤの言るごとくなし彼と其家及びエリヤ久く食へり
16 The jar of meal was not used up, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of Jehovah, which he spoke by Elijah.
ヱホバのエリヤに由て言たまひし言のごとく桶の粉は竭ず瓶の油は絶ざりき
17 And it came to pass after these things, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick, and his sickness was so severe that there was no breath left in him.
是等の事の後其家の主母なる婦の子疾に罹しが其病甚だ劇くして氣息其中に絶て無きに至れり
18 And she said to Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? Thou have come to me to bring my sin to remembrance, and to kill my son!
婦エリアに言けるは神の人よ汝なんぞ吾事に關渉るべけんや汝はわが罪を憶ひ出さしめんため又わが子を死しめんために我に來れるか
19 And he said to her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into the chamber where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed.
エリヤ彼に爾の子を我に授せと言て之を其懐より取り之を己の居る桜に抱のぼりて己の牀に臥しめ
20 And he cried to Jehovah, and said, O Jehovah my God, have thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn by slaying her son?
ヱホバに呼はりていひけるは吾神ヱホバよ爾は亦吾ともに宿る嫠に菑をくだして其子を死しめたまふやと
21 And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried to Jehovah, and said, O Jehovah my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again.
而して三度身を伸して其子の上に伏しヱホバに呼はりて言ふわが神ヱホバ願くは此子の魂を中に歸しめたまへと
22 And Jehovah hearkened to the voice of Elijah, and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.
ヱホバ、エリヤの聲を聽いれたまひしかば其子の魂中にかへりて生たり
23 And Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the chamber into the house, and delivered him to his mother. And Elijah said, See, thy son lives.
エリヤ乃ち其子を取て之を桜より家に携くだり其母に與していひけるは視よ爾の子は生くと
24 And the woman said to Elijah, Now I know that thou are a man of God, and that the word of Jehovah in thy mouth is truth.
婦エリヤにいひけるは此に縁て我は爾が神の人にして爾の口にあるヱホバの言は眞實なるを知ると
