< 1 Kings 18 >
1 Now after a long time, the word of the Lord came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, Go and let Ahab see you, so that I may send rain on the earth.
Isu a kalpasan ti adu nga aldaw, immay ti sao ni Yahweh kenni Elias, iti maikatlo a tawen ti tikag a kunana, “Mapanka dumatag kenni Ahab ket iyegkonto iti tudo iti daga.”
2 So Elijah went to let Ahab see him. Now there was no food to be had in Samaria.
Napan dimmatag ni Elias kenni Ahab; ita, nakaro unay ti panagbisin idiay Samaria.
3 And Ahab sent for Obadiah, the controller of the king's house. (Now Obadiah had the fear of the Lord before him greatly;
Inayaban ni Ahab ni Abdias a mayordomo ti palasio. Ita, raraemen unay ni Abdias ni Yahweh,
4 For when Jezebel was cutting off the prophets of the Lord, Obadiah took a hundred of them, and kept them secretly in a hole in the rock, fifty at a time, and gave them bread and water.)
ta idi patpatayn ni Jezebel dagiti profeta ni Yahweh, inkuyog ni Abdias ti sangagasut a profeta ket inlemmengna ida iti dua a kueba, limapulo a profeta ti inlemmengna iti tunggal kueba ket pinakanna ida iti tinapay ken danum.
5 And Ahab said to Obadiah, Come, let us go through all the country, to all the fountains of water and all the rivers, and see if there is any grass to be had for the horses and the transport beasts, so that we may be able to keep some of the beasts from destruction.
Kinuna ni Ahab kenni Abdias, “Sursorenta ti daga, iti amin nga ubbog ken waig. Bareng makasarakta kadagiti ruot ken maispalta dagiti kabalio ken mulo, tapno saan a matay amin dagiti ayup.”
6 So they went through all the country, covering it between them; Ahab went in one direction by himself, and Obadiah went in another by himself.
Nagnumoanda ngarud no ania a daga ti sursuren ti tunggal maysa kadakuada tapno agbirok iti danum ket nagsinada iti turongen.
7 And while Obadiah was on his way, he came face to face with Elijah; and seeing who it was, he went down on his face and said, Is it you, my lord Elijah?
Bayat nga adda ni Abdias iti dalan, nairana a nasabat isuna ni Elias. Nabigbig ni Abdias isuna ket nagrukob iti daga. Kinunana, “Sika kadi dayta, apok nga Elias?”
8 And Elijah in answer said, It is I; now go and say to your lord, Elijah is here.
Simmungbat ni Elias kenkuana, “Siak. Mapanmo ibaga iti apom, 'Kitaem, adda ditoy ni Elias.'”
9 And he said, What sin have I done, that you would give up your servant into the hand of Ahab, and be the cause of my death?
Simmungbat ni Abdias, “Ania ti nagbasolak ta iyawatmo ti adipenmo iti ima ni Ahab, tapno patayennak?
10 By the life of the Lord your God, there is not a nation or kingdom where my lord has not sent in search of you; and when they said, He is not here; he made them take an oath that they had not seen you.
Iti nagan ni Yahweh a Diosmo nga adda iti agnanayon, awan ti nasion wenno pagarian a saan a nangibaonan ti apok kadagiti tattaona tapno birukendaka. Tunggal ibaga ti nasion wenno pagarian, ‘Awan ditoy ni Elias,' pagsapataen ida ni Ahab nga ikarida a saandaka a mabirukan.
11 And now you say, Go, say to your lord, Elijah is here.
Ngem ita ibagam a, “Mapanka ket ibagam iti apom nga adda ditoy ni Elias.'
12 And straight away, when I have gone from you, the spirit of the Lord will take you away, I have no idea where, so that when I come and give word to Ahab, and he sees you not, he will put me to death: though I, your servant, have been a worshipper of the Lord from my earliest years.
Apaman a makaadayoak kenka, ipannaka ti Espiritu ni Yahweh iti lugar a saanko nga ammo. Ket inton mapanko ibaga kenni Ahab, ket saannaka a mabirukan, patayennakto. Ngem siak nga adipenmo, dinaydayawko ni Yahweh manipud iti kinaagtutubok.
13 Has my lord not had word of what I did when Jezebel was putting the Lord's prophets to death? how I kept a hundred of them in a secret hole in the rock, fifty at a time, and gave them bread and water?
Saan kadi a naibaga kenka apok, ti inaramidko idi pinatay ni Jezebel dagiti profeta ni Yahweh, no kasano nga inlemmengko ti sangagasut a profeta ni Yahweh babaen iti panangbingayko kadakuada iti saglilimapulo iti tunggal kueba ken pinakanko ida iti tinapay ken danum?
14 And now you say, Go and say to your Lord, Elijah is here; and he will put me to death.
Ket ita ibagam, ‘Mapanka ket ibagam iti apom nga adda ditoy ni Elias,' tapno patayennak ni Ahab.”
15 And Elijah said, By the life of the Lord of armies, whose servant I am, I will certainly let him see me today.
Ket simmungbat ni Elias, “Iti nagan ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, a pagserserbiak, awan duadua a dumatagak kenni Ahab ita nga aldaw.”
16 So Obadiah went to Ahab and gave him the news; and Ahab went to see Elijah.
Isu a napan ni Abdias tapno sarakenna ni Ahab; imbagana kenni Ahab ti imbilin ni Elias kenkuana ket napan ni Ahab tapno sabatenna ni Elias.
17 And when he saw Elijah, Ahab said to him, Is it you, you troubler of Israel?
Idi nakita ni Ahab ni Elias, kinunana kenkuana, “Sika kadi dayta, sika a mangrirriribuk iti Israel?”
18 Then he said in answer, I have not been troubling Israel, but you and your family; because, turning away from the orders of the Lord, you have gone after the Baals.
Simmungbat ni Elias, “Saanko a riniribuk ti Israel, ngem sika ken ti pamilia ti amam ti mangrirriribuk babaen iti panangtallikudyo kadagiti bilin ni Yahweh ken babaen iti panangsurotyo kadagiti Baal a didiosen.
19 Now send, and get Israel together before me at Mount Carmel, with the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal who get their food at Jezebel's table.
Ita ngarud, mangibaonka iti mapan mangibaga ket ummungem ti entero nga Israel idiay Bantay Carmel iti sangoanak agraman dagiti uppat a gasut ket limapulo a profeta ni Baal ken ti uppat a gasut a profeta ni Asera a ti pangpangananda ket iti lamisaan ni Jezebel.”
20 So Ahab sent for all the children of Israel, and got the prophets together at Mount Carmel.
Isu a pinaayaban amin ni Ahab dagiti tattao iti Israel ket inummongda dagiti profeta idiay Bantay Carmel.
21 And Elijah came near to all the people and said, How long will you go on balancing between two opinions? if the Lord is God, then give worship to him; but if Baal, give worship to him. And the people said not a word in answer.
Immasideg ni Elias kadagiti amin a tattao ket kinunana, “Kasano pay kabayag ti panagduaduayo? No ni Yahweh ti Dios, surotenyo isuna. Ngem no ni Baal ti Dios, surotenyo ngarud isuna.” Ngem saan a simmungbat kenkuana dagiti tattao.
22 Then Elijah said to the people, I, even I, am the only living prophet of the Lord; but Baal's prophets are four hundred and fifty men.
Ket kinuna ni Elias kadagiti tattao, “Siak, siak laengen ti nabati a profeta ni Yahweh, ngem dagiti profeta ni Baal ket uppat a gasut ket lima pulo a tattao.
23 Now, let them give us two oxen; and let them take one for themselves, and have it cut up, and put it on the wood, but put no fire under it; I will get the other ox ready, and put it on the wood, and put no fire under it.
Ipaayandakami ngarud iti dua a baka. Bay-anyo a mangpilida iti maysa a baka a para kadakuada ket partienda daytoy sada iparabaw kadagiti kayo, ngem saanda a pasgedan daytoy. Kalpasanna, partiek ti sabali pay a baka ket iparabawko iti kayo, ket saanko a pasgedan daytoy.
24 And do you make prayers to your god, and I will make a prayer to the Lord: and it will be clear that the one who gives an answer by fire is God. And all the people in answer said, It is well said.
Kalpasanna, umawagkayo iti nagan ti diosyo, ket umawagakto met iti nagan ni Yahweh, ket ti Dios a sumungbat babaen iti apuy, isuna ti Dios.” Isu a simmungbat amin dagiti tattao ket kinunada, “Nasayaat daytoy.”
25 Then Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, Take one ox for yourselves and get it ready first, for there are more of you; and make your prayers to your god, but put no fire under.
Kinuna ngarud ni Elias kadagiti profeta ni Baal, “Mangpilikayo iti maysa a baka ket umunakayo a mangisagana iti daytoy, ta adukayo a tattao. Kalpasanna, umawagkayo iti nagan ti diosyo, ngem saanyo a pasgedan ti nakaiparabawan dagiti karne ti baka.”
26 So they took the ox which was given them, and made it ready, crying out to Baal from morning till the middle of the day, and saying, O Baal, give ear to us. But there was no voice and no answer. And they were jumping up and down before the altar they had made.
Innalada ti baka a naited kadakuada ket pinartida, ket immawagda iti nagan ni Baal manipud iti bigat agingga iti tengnga ti aldaw a kunkunada, “Baal, denggendakami.” Ngem awan ti timek, wenno siasinoman a simmungbat. Nagsalsalada iti aglawlaw ti altar nga inaramidda.
27 And in the middle of the day, Elijah made sport of them, saying, Give louder cries, for he is a god; he may be deep in thought, or he may have gone away for some purpose, or he may be on a journey, or by chance he is sleeping and has to be made awake.
Idi katengngaan ti aldaw, rinabak ida ni Elias ket kinunana, “Pigsaanyo ti umasug! Maysa isuna a dios! Nalabit nga agpanpanunot isuna, wenno agpabpabang-ar, wenno agdaldaliasat, wenno nalabit a matmaturog isuna a nasken a riingen.”
28 So they gave loud cries, cutting themselves with knives and swords, as was their way, till the blood came streaming out all over them.
Isu nga impigpigsada ti panagasugda ket sinugsugatda dagiti bagbagida a kas iti kadawyan nga ar-aramidenda babaen kadagiti kampilan ken gayang agingga a nagayus dagiti darada kadagiti bagbagida.
29 And from the middle of the day they went on with their prayers till the time of the offering; but there was no voice, or any answer, or any who gave attention to them.
Limmabas ti katengngaan ti aldaw, ket umas-asugda latta agingga iti tiempo ti panagidaton iti pangrabii a daton, ngem awan ti timek wenno siasinoman a simmungbat; awan ti siasinoman a nangipangag kadagiti panagas-asugda.
30 Then Elijah said to all the people, Come near to me; and all the people came near. And he put up again the altar of the Lord which had been broken down.
Ket kinuna ni Elias kadagiti amin a tattao, “Umasidegkayo kaniak,” ket immasideg kenkuana dagiti tattao. Ket tinarimaanna ti narba nga altar ni Yahweh.
31 And Elijah took twelve stones, the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the Lord had said, Israel will be your name:
Nangala ni Elias iti sangapulo ket dua a bato, ibagbagi ti tunggal bato dagiti sangapulo ket dua a tribu dagiti annak ni Jacob—ni Jacob ti immayan ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana, “Ti naganmonto ket Israel.”
32 And with the stones he made an altar to the name of the Lord; and he made a deep drain all round the altar, great enough to take two measures of seed.
Babaen kadagiti batbato, nangaramid isuna iti altar iti nagan ni Yahweh, ket nangkali isuna iti kanal iti lawlaw ti altar a makalaon iti sangapulo ket lima a litro ti bukbukel.
33 And he put the wood in order, and, cutting up the ox, put it on the wood. Then he said, Get four vessels full of water and put it on the burned offering and on the wood. And he said, Do it a second time, and they did it a second time;
Ket inkabilna dagiti kayo a pagsungrod ken pinartina ti baka, ket imparabawna dagiti karne ti baka kadagiti kayo. Ket kinunana, “Punnoenyo dagiti uppat a karamba iti danum ket ibukbokyo iti mapuoran a daton ken iti kayo.”
34 And he said, Do it a third time, and they did it a third time.
Ket kinunana, “Piduaenyo,” ket piniduada. Ket kinunana, “Maminsan pay,” ket inaramidda ti imbilinna nga aramidenda.
35 And the water went all round the altar, till the drain was full.
Nagayus ti danum iti likmut ti altar ket napno ti kanal.
36 Then at the time of the offering, Elijah the prophet came near and said, O Lord, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be seen this day that you are God in Israel, and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things by your order.
Idi dumteng ti oras a panagidaton iti pangrabii a daton, immasideg ni Elias ket kinunana, “O Yahweh a Dios ni Abraham, ni Isaac, ken Israel, ipakaammom ita nga aldaw a sika ti Dios iti Israel, ken siak ti adipenmo, ken inaramidko amin dagitoy a banbanag nga imbilinmo.
37 Give me an answer, O Lord, give me an answer, so that this people may see that you are God, and that you have made their hearts come back again.
Denggennak, O Yahweh, denggennak, tapno maammoan dagitoy a tattao, a sika O Yahweh, ket Dios, ken insublim manen dagiti pusoda kenka.”
38 Then the fire of the Lord came down, burning up the offering and the wood and the stones and the dust, and drinking up the water in the drain.
Ket nagtinnag ti apuy ni Yahweh ket inkisapna ti daton a mapuoran, agraman dagiti kayo, dagiti batbato, ken ti tapok ken pinagmagana dagiti danum nga adda iti kanal.
39 And when the people saw it, they all went down on their faces, and said, The Lord, he is God, the Lord, he is God.
Idi nakita dagiti amin a tattao daytoy, nagpaklebda ket kinunada, “Ni Yahweh ti Dios! Ni Yahweh ti Dios!”
40 And Elijah said to them, Take the prophets of Baal, let not one of them get away. So they took them, and Elijah made them go down to the stream Kishon, and put them to death there.
Isu a kinuna ni Elias kadakuada, “Tiliwenyo dagiti profeta ni Baal. Saanyo nga ipalubos nga adda uray maysa a makalibas kadakuada.” Innalada ngarud ida ket inyapan ni Elias dagiti profeta ni Baal iti waig ti Kison ket pinatayna ida sadiay.
41 Then Elijah said to Ahab, Up! take food and drink, for there is a sound of much rain.
Kinuna ni Elias kenni Ahab, “Tumakderka, manganka ken uminomka, ta mangngegko ti daranudor ti napigsa a tudo.”
42 So Ahab went up to have food and drink, while Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he went down on the earth, putting his face between his knees.
Isu a napan ni Ahab tapno mangan ken uminom. Ket simmang-at ni Elias iti tuktok ti Carmel, indumogna ti rupana iti nagbaetan dagiti tumengna.
43 And he said to his servant, Go now, and take a look in the direction of the sea. And he went up, and after looking said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times; and he went seven times.
Kinuna ni Elias iti adipenna, “Sumang-atka ita, tannawagam ti baybay.” Simmang-at ti adipenna ket kimmita ket kinunana, “Awan pulos ti nakitak.” Isu a kinuna ni Elias, “Mapanka manen, iti maminpito a daras.”
44 And the seventh time he said, I see a cloud coming up out of the sea, as small as a man's hand. Then he said, Go up and say to Ahab, Get your carriage ready and go down or the rain will keep you back.
Iti maikapito a daras, kinuna ti adipen, “Kitaem, adda ulep nga agpangpangato manipud iti baybay, a kas iti kabassit ti dakulap ti maysa a tao.” Insungbat ni Elias, “Sumang-atka ket ibagam kenni Ahab, 'Isaganam ti karwahem ket sumalogkan sakbay a pasardengennaka ti tudo iti panagawidmo.'”
45 And after a very little time, the heaven became black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab went in his carriage to Jezreel.
Ket napasamak nga iti apagbiit, nanglangeb ti tangatang nga addaan kadagiti ulep ken angin, ket nagtudo iti napigsa. Limmugan ni Ahab ket napan idiay Jezreel,
46 And the hand of the Lord was on Elijah; and he made himself strong, and went running before Ahab till they came to Jezreel.
ngem adda kenni Elias ti pannakabalin ni Yahweh. Binareksanna ti kagayna ket nagtaray agingga a naun-unaanna ni Ahab a dimmanon iti pagserkan ti Jezreel.
