1 Kings 18
1 After many days, the LORD’s word came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, “Go, show yourself to Ahab; and I will send rain on the earth.”
Oo wakhti dheer dabadiis waxay noqotay in sannaddii saddexaad eraygii Rabbigu Eliiyaah u yimid oo uu ku yidhi, Tag oo Axaab istus, oo anna roob baan dhulka ku soo daynayaa.
2 Elijah went to show himself to Ahab. The famine was severe in Samaria.
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu u tegey inuu Axaab istuso. Oo abaartuna aad bay ugu xumayd Samaariya.
3 Ahab called Obadiah, who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared the LORD greatly;
Markaasaa Axaab wuxuu u yeedhay Cobadyaah oo shuqulkii guriga u sarreeyey. (Haddaba Cobadyaah Rabbiga aad buu uga cabsan jiray,
4 for when Jezebel cut off the LORD’s prophets, Obadiah took one hundred prophets, and hid them fifty to a cave, and fed them with bread and water.)
waayo, markay Yesebeel baabbi'isay nebiyadii Rabbiga ayaa Cobadyaah kaxeeyey boqol nebi, oo kontonba god buu ku qariyey, oo wuxuu ku quudin jiray kibis iyo biyo.)
5 Ahab said to Obadiah, “Go through the land, to all the springs of water, and to all the brooks. Perhaps we may find grass and save the horses and mules alive, that we not lose all the animals.”
Markaasaa Axaab wuxuu Cobadyaah ku yidhi, Bal tag, oo dalka oo dhan dhex mar, ilaa ilaha biyaha oo dhan, iyo durdurrada oo dhan, waaba intaasoo aynu daaq helnaa, si aynu fardaha iyo baqlaha u noolayno, oo ayan cuudka oo dhammu nooga dhammaan.
6 So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it. Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself.
Sidaas daraaddeed dhulkii way qaybsadeen inay soo wada dhex maraan; Axaab keligiis dhan buu u sahamiyey, Cobadyaahna dhankii kaluu keligiis u sahamiyey.
7 As Obadiah was on the way, behold, Elijah met him. He recognized him, and fell on his face, and said, “Is it you, my lord Elijah?”
Oo bal eeg, Cobadyaah intuu jidkii sii socday ayaa waxaa ka hor yimid Eliiyaah; oo wuu aqooday, markaasuu wejiga dhulka saaray, oo wuxuu yidhi, Eliiyaahow sayidkaygiiyow, ma adigii baa?
8 He answered him, “It is I. Go, tell your lord, ‘Behold, Elijah is here!’”
Markaasuu ugu jawaabay, Haah, waa anigii; haddaba tag oo sayidkaagii waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, War Eliiyaah halkanuu joogaa.
9 He said, “How have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me?
Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, War maxaan ku dembaabay, oo aad u doonaysaa anoo addoonkaaga ah inaad Axaab ii gacangeliso inuu i dilo aawadeed?
10 As the LORD your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom where my lord has not sent to seek you. When they said, ‘He is not here,’ he took an oath of the kingdom and nation that they did not find you.
Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah noloshiisaan ku dhaartaye inaan la arag quruun iyo boqortooyo uusan sayidkaygu cid u dirin si uu kaaga goobo; oo markay yidhaahdeen, Halkan ma joogo, ayuu boqortooyo kasta iyo quruun kastaba dhaariyey inay ku waayeen.
11 Now you say, ‘Go, tell your lord, “Behold, Elijah is here.”’
Oo imminka waxaad leedahay, Tag, oo sayidkaagii u sheeg in Eliiyaah halkan joogo.
12 It will happen, as soon as I leave you, that the LORD’s Spirit will carry you I do not know where; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he cannot find you, he will kill me. But I, your servant, have feared the LORD from my youth.
Oo bal eeg waxay noqon doontaa markaan kaa tago in Ruuxa Rabbigu kuu qaadi doona meel aanan aqoon, oo sidaas daraaddeed markaan Axaab u tago oo kuu soo sheego, oo uu ku waayo aniguu i dilayaa; laakiinse anigoo addoonkaaga ah Rabbiga waan ka cabsan jiray tan iyo dhallinyaranimadaydii.
13 Was not it told my lord what I did when Jezebel killed the LORD’s prophets, how I hid one hundred men of the LORD’s prophets with fifty to a cave, and fed them with bread and water?
Oo sayidkaygiiyow, miyaan laguu sheegin wixii aan sameeyey markii Yesebeel laysay nebiyadii Rabbiga, iyo sidaan u qariyey boqol nin oo Rabbiga nebiyadiisii ah, oo aan kontonba god geliyey, oo aan kibis iyo biyo ku quudiyey?
14 Now you say, ‘Go, tell your lord, “Behold, Elijah is here”.’ He will kill me.”
Oo hadda waxaad igu leedahay, Tag oo sayidkaagii u sheeg in Eliiyaah halkan joogo; oo isna wuu i dilayaa.
15 Elijah said, “As the LORD of Armies lives, before whom I stand, I will surely show myself to him today.”
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Waxaan ku dhaartay Rabbiga ciidammada ee aan hor taagnahay noloshiisa inaan xaqiiqa maanta isaga isu muujinayo.
16 So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him; and Ahab went to meet Elijah.
Sidaas daraaddeed Cobadyaah wuxuu u tegey inuu Axaab la kulmo, wuuna u soo sheegay; markaasaa Axaab u tegey inuu Eliiyaah la kulmo.
17 When Ahab saw Elijah, Ahab said to him, “Is that you, you troubler of Israel?”
Oo markuu Axaab arkay Eliiyaah ayuu ku yidhi, War ma adigii baa kii dadkii Israa'iil dhibayayow?
18 He answered, “I have not troubled Israel, but you and your father’s house, in that you have forsaken the LORD’s commandments and you have followed the Baals.
Markaasuu u jawaabay, oo ku yidhi, Anigu dadkii Israa'iil ma aanan dhibin, laakiinse waxaa dhibay adiga iyo reerka aabbahaa, waayo, waxaad ka tagteen amarradii Rabbiga, oo weliba waxaad raacday Bacaliim.
19 Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel to Mount Carmel, and four hundred fifty of the prophets of Baal, and four hundred of the prophets of the Asherah, who eat at Jezebel’s table.”
Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed u cid dir, oo dadkii Israa'iil oo dhan, iyo Bacal nebiyadiisa ah afarta boqol iyo konton, iyo geedihii Asheeraah nebiyadooda ah afar boqol oo miiska Yesebeel wax ka cuna, kulli ku soo wada ururi Buur Karmel.
20 So Ahab sent to all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together to Mount Carmel.
Sidaas daraaddeed Axaab wuxuu u cid diray dadkii Israa'iil oo dhan, oo nebiyadiina wuxuu ku soo wada ururiyey Buur Karmel.
21 Elijah came near to all the people, and said, “How long will you waver between the two sides? If the LORD is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him.” The people did not say a word.
Markaasaa Eliiyaah u soo dhowaaday dadkii oo dhan, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War ilaa goormaad laba ra'yi u dhexaynaysaan? War haddii Rabbigu Ilaah yahay isaga raaca, laakiinse haddii Bacal Ilaah yahay isaga raaca. Oo dadkiina isagii xataa eray keliya uguma jawaabin.
22 Then Elijah said to the people, “I, even I only, am left as a prophet of the LORD; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred fifty men.
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu haddana dadkii ku yidhi, Anigoo keliya ayaa ka hadhay nebiyadii Rabbiga, laakiinse Bacal nebiyadiisu waa afar boqol iyo konton nin.
23 Let them therefore give us two bulls; and let them choose one bull for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under; and I will dress the other bull, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under it.
Haddaba bal laba dibi ha naloo keeno, oo iyagu dibi ha doorteen, oo ha jarjareen, oo qoryaha ha dul saareen, oo innaba dab yay hoosta ka gelin; oo anna dibiga kalaan qalayaa, oo qoryahaan dul saarayaa, oo innaba dab hoosta ka gelin maayo.
24 You call on the name of your god, and I will call on the LORD’s name. The God who answers by fire, let him be God.” All the people answered, “What you say is good.”
Oo markaas idinku u yeedha magaca ilaahiinna, oo anna waxaan u yeedhanayaa magaca Rabbiga; oo markaas Ilaahii dab ku soo jawaabaa ha ahaado Ilaah. Markaasaa dadkii oo dhammu jawaabeen oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Kaasu waa hadal wanaagsan.
25 Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, “Choose one bull for yourselves, and dress it first, for you are many; and call on the name of your god, but put no fire under it.”
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu nebiyadii Bacal ku yidhi, Bal idinku dibi doorta oo marka hore qala, dabse hoosta ha ka gelinina, oo idinku waad badan tihiine marka hore u yeedha magaca ilaahiinna.
26 They took the bull which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, “Baal, hear us!” But there was no voice, and nobody answered. They leaped about the altar which was made.
Markaasay qaateen dibigii la siiyey, wayna qaleen, oo aroortii ilaa duhurkii ayay u yeedhanayeen magicii Bacal, oo waxay lahaayeen, Bacalow, na maqal! Laakiinse cod iyo wax iyaga u jawaabay toona ma jirin. Oo meeshii allabariga oo la dhisay hareeraheeda ayay boodboodayeen.
27 At noon, Elijah mocked them, and said, “Cry aloud, for he is a god. Either he is deep in thought, or he has gone somewhere, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he sleeps and must be awakened.”
Oo waxay duhurkii noqotay inuu Eliiyaah iyagii ku majaajilooday oo ku yidhi, War aad u qayliya; waayo, waa ilaah, oo mindhaa wuu isla tashanayaa, ama gees buu u leexday, ama socdaal buu ku maqan yahay, ama mindhaa wuu iska hurdaa oo waa in la toosiyaa.
28 They cried aloud, and cut themselves in their way with knives and lances until the blood gushed out on them.
Markaasay aad u qayliyeen, oo sidii caadadoodu ahayd waxay isku jareen mindiyo iyo eebooyin ilamaa dhiig ka soo burqaday.
29 When midday was past, they prophesied until the time of the evening offering; but there was no voice, no answer, and nobody paid attention.
Oo markii hadhkii la dhaafay ayay sidii nebi wax sii sheegayeen ilaa wakhtigii la bixin jiray allabarigii fiidnimada, laakiinse cod iyo wax u jawaaba iyo wax ka dan leh midna ma jirin.
30 Elijah said to all the people, “Come near to me!”; and all the people came near to him. He repaired the LORD’s altar that had been thrown down.
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu dadkii oo dhan ku yidhi, Haddaba ii soo dhowaada; kolkaasaa dadkii oo dhammu u soo dhowaadeen, dabadeedna meeshii allabariga ee Rabbiga ee la dumiyey ayuu hagaajiyey.
31 Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the LORD’s word came, saying, “Israel shall be your name.”
Oo wuxuu Eliiyaah soo qaaday laba iyo toban dhagax oo ka dhigan intii qabiilooyinkii wiilashii Yacquub tiradoodu ahayd, kaasoo eraygii Rabbigu u yimid oo ku yidhi, Magacaagu wuxuu ahaan doonaa Israa'iil.
32 With the stones he built an altar in the LORD’s name. He made a trench around the altar large enough to contain two seahs of seed.
Oo dhagxantii wuxuu meel allabari ugu dhisay magaca Rabbiga, oo meeshii allabariga hareeraheeda wuxuu ka qoday meel ku wareegsan oo qaadi karta laba qiyaas oo midho ah.
33 He put the wood in order, and cut the bull in pieces and laid it on the wood. He said, “Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering and on the wood.”
Oo qoryihiina si hagaagsan buu u saaray, oo dibigiina intuu jarjaray ayuu qoryihii dul saaray. Markaasuu yidhi, Afar barmiil biyo ka soo buuxiya oo ku dul shuba qurbaanka la gubo iyo qoryahaba.
34 He said, “Do it a second time;” and they did it the second time. He said, “Do it a third time;” and they did it the third time.
Oo haddana wuxuu ku yidhi, Sidii oo kale mar labaad yeela, iyana way yeeleen mar labaad. Oo haddana wuxuu ku yidhi, Sidii oo kale mar saddexaad yeela, oo iyana way yeeleen mar saddexaad.
35 The water ran around the altar; and he also filled the trench with water.
Oo biyihii waxay qulquleen meeshii allabariga hareeraheeda, oo xataa meeshii la qodayna wuxuu ka buuxshay biyo.
36 At the time of the evening offering, Elijah the prophet came near and said, “LORD, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word.
Oo markii la gaadhay wakhtigii la bixin jiray allabarigii fiidnimada, Nebi Eliiyaah waa soo dhowaaday, oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiyow, Ibraahim iyo Isxaaq iyo Israa'iil Ilaahoodiiyow, maanta dalka Israa'iil ha lagu dhex ogaado inaad adigu Ilaah tahay, oo aan anna ahay addoonkaaga, iyo inaan waxyaalahan oo dhan eraygaaga ku sameeyey.
37 Hear me, LORD, hear me, that this people may know that you, LORD, are God, and that you have turned their heart back again.”
Rabbiyow, i maqal oo i maqal, inay dadkanu ogaadaan inaad adigu Ilaah tahay Rabbiyow, iyo inaad qalbigooda soo celisay.
38 Then the LORD’s fire fell and consumed the burnt offering, the wood, the stones, and the dust; and it licked up the water that was in the trench.
Markaasaa Rabbiga dabkiisii soo dhacay oo wuxuu gubay allabariga la gubo, iyo qoryihii, iyo dhagxantii, iyo boodhkii, oo xataa biyihii godka ku jirayna ololkii baa leefay.
39 When all the people saw it, they fell on their faces. They said, “The LORD, he is God! The LORD, he is God!”
Oo markii dadkii taas arkay ayay wejiga u wada dhaceen; oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Rabbigu isagu waa Ilaah, Rabbigu isagu waa Ilaah.
40 Elijah said to them, “Seize the prophets of Baal! Do not let one of them escape!” They seized them; and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and killed them there.
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Nebiyada Bacal qabta oo midna yuusan ka baxsan. Oo iyana way soo qabteen; markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu iyagii keenay durdurka Qiishoon agtiisa, oo halkaasuu iyagii ku laayay.
41 Elijah said to Ahab, “Get up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of abundance of rain.”
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu Axaab ku yidhi, War kac oo wax cun, oo wax cab, waayo, waxaa sanqadhaya roob badan!
42 So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he bowed himself down on the earth, and put his face between his knees.
Markaasaa Axaab u kacay inuu wax cuno oo wax cabbo. Oo Eliiyaahna wuxuu fuulay Buur Karmel dusheeda, oo intuu foororsaday ayuu dhulka ku sujuuday oo wejigiisiina wuxuu geliyey lowyihiisa dhexdooda.
43 He said to his servant, “Go up now and look toward the sea.” He went up and looked, then said, “There is nothing.” He said, “Go again” seven times.
Markaasuu midiidinkiisii ku yidhi, Bal tag oo badda xaggeeda fiiri. Kolkaasuu tegey oo wax fiiriyey, oo wuxuu yidhi, Waxba lama arko. Oo haddana wuxuu ku yidhi, Ku noqo toddoba jeer.
44 On the seventh time, he said, “Behold, a small cloud, like a man’s hand, is rising out of the sea.” He said, “Go up, tell Ahab, ‘Get ready and go down, so that the rain does not stop you.’”
Oo waxaa dhacday inuu markii toddobaad yidhi, Waxaa badda ka kacday daruur yar oo nin gacantiis le'eg. Isna wuxuu yidhi, Orod oo waxaad Axaab ku tidhaahdaa, War, gaadhifaraskaaga diyaarso oo dhaadhac, yaan roobku ku joojine.
45 In a little while, the sky grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel.
Oo wakhti yar dabadiis cirkii ayaa daruuro iyo dabayl la madoobaaday, oo waxaa jiray roob weyn. Oo Axaabna gaadhifaraskiisii buu fuulay, oo wuxuu tegey Yesreceel.
46 The LORD’s hand was on Elijah; and he tucked his cloak into his belt and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.
Oo Eliiyaah waxaa la jiray gacantii Rabbiga, oo intuu guntigiisii dhexda ku giigsaday ayuu Axaab hor ordayay ilaa meeshii Yesreceel laga galo.
