1 Kings 17
1 And Elijah the Tishbite, from the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, “As the Lord lives, the God of Israel, in whose sight I stand, there shall not be dew or rain during these years, except by the words of my mouth.”
Tada reèe Ahavu Ilija Tesviæanin, jedan od naseljenika Galadskih: tako da je živ Gospod Bog Izrailjev, pred kojim stojim, ovijeh godina neæe biti rose ni dažda dokle ja ne reèem.
2 And the word of the Lord came to him, saying:
Potom doðe njemu rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
3 “Withdraw from here, and go toward the east, and hide at the torrent Cherith, which is opposite the Jordan.
Idi odavde, i obrati se na istok, i sakrij se kod potoka Horata prema Jordanu.
4 And there you shall drink from the torrent. And I have instructed the ravens to feed you there.”
I iz onoga potoka pij, a gavranima sam zapovjedio da te hrane ondje.
5 Therefore, he went and acted in accord with the word of the Lord. And going away, he settled by the torrent Cherith, which is opposite the Jordan.
I on otide i uèini po rijeèi Gospodnjoj, i otišav stani se kod potoka Horata, koji je prema Jordanu.
6 And the ravens carried bread and flesh to him in the morning, and likewise bread and flesh in the evening. And he drank from the torrent.
I ondje mu gavrani donošahu hljeba i mesa jutrom i veèerom, a iz potoka pijaše.
7 But after some days, the torrent dried up. For it had not rained upon the earth.
Ali poslije godinu dana presahnu potok, jer ne bješe dažda u zemlji.
8 Then the word of the Lord came to him, saying:
Tada doðe njemu rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
9 “Rise up, and go to Zarephath of the Sidonians, and dwell there. For I have instructed a widowed woman there to feed you.”
Ustani, idi u Sareptu Sidonsku, i sjedi ondje; evo zapovjedio sam ondje ženi udovici da te hrani.
10 He rose up and went away to Zarephath. And when he had arrived at the gate of the city, he saw the widowed woman collecting wood, and he called to her. And he said to her, “Give me a little water in a vessel, so that I may drink.”
I ustavši otide u Sareptu; i kad doðe na vrata gradska, gle, žena udovica kupljaše ondje drva; i on je dozva i reèe joj: donesi mi malo vode u sudu da se napijem.
11 And as she was going to bring it, he called out after her, saying, “Bring me also, I beg you, a morsel of bread in your hand.”
I ona poðe da donese; a on je viknu i reèe: donesi mi i hljeba malo.
12 And she responded: “As the Lord your God lives, I have no bread, except a handful of flour in a jar, and a little oil in a bottle. See, I am collecting a couple of sticks, so that I may go in and make it for myself and my son, so that we may eat it and die.”
A ona reèe: tako da je živ Gospod Bog tvoj, nemam peèena hljeba do grst brašna u zdjeli i malo ulja u krèagu; i eto kupim drvaca da otidem i zgotovim sebi i sinu svojemu, da pojedemo, pa onda da umremo.
13 And Elijah said to her: “Do not be afraid. But go and do as you have said. Yet truly, first make for me, from the same flour, a little bread baked under ashes, and bring it to me. Then afterward, make some for yourself and for your son.
A Ilija joj reèe: ne boj se, idi, zgotovi kako si rekla; ali umijesi prvo meni jedan kolaèiæ od toga, i donesi mi, pa poslije gotovi sebi i sinu svojemu.
14 For thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: ‘The jar of flour will not fail, nor the bottle of oil be diminished, until the day when the Lord will grant rain upon the face of the earth.’”
Jer ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: brašno se iz zdjele neæe potrošiti niti æe ulja u krèagu nestati dokle ne pusti Gospod dažda na zemlju.
15 She went and acted in accord with the word of Elijah. And he ate, and she and her household ate. And from that day,
I ona otide i uèini kako reèe Ilija; i jede i ona i on i dom njezin godinu dana;
16 the jar of flour did not fail, and the bottle of oil was not diminished, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by the hand of Elijah.
Brašno se iz zdjele ne potroši niti ulja u krèagu nesta po rijeèi Gospodnjoj, koju reèe preko Ilije.
17 Now it happened that, after these things, the son of the woman who was the mother of the family became ill. And the sickness was very powerful, so that no breath remained in him.
A poslije toga razbolje se sin ženi domaæici, i bolest njegova bi vrlo teška, tako da izdahnu.
18 Therefore, she said to Elijah: “What is there between you and me, O man of God? Have you entered to me, so that my iniquities would be remembered, and so that you would put to death my son?”
I ona reèe Iliji: šta je tebi do mene, èovjeèe Božji? Jesi li došao k meni da spomeneš bezakonje moje i da mi umoriš sina?
19 And Elijah said to her, “Give your son to me.” And he took him from her bosom, and he carried him to an upper room, where he himself was staying. And he placed him on his own bed.
A on joj reèe: daj mi sina svojega. I uzev ga iz naruèja njezina odnese ga u gornju klijet, gdje on sjeðaše, i položi ga na postelju svoju.
20 And he cried out to the Lord, and he said, “O Lord, my God, have you even afflicted the widow by whom I am, in a sense, sustained, so that you would put to death her son?”
Tada zavapi ka Gospodu i reèe: Gospode Bože moj, zar si i ovu udovicu kod koje sam gost tako ucvijelio umorivši joj sina?
21 And he stretched himself out beside the boy three times. And he cried out to the Lord and said, “O Lord, my God, let the soul of this boy, I beg you, return to his body.”
I pruživ se nad djetetom tri puta zavapi ka Gospodu govoreæi: Gospode Bože moj, neka se povrati u dijete duša njegova.
22 And the Lord heeded the voice of Elijah. And the soul of the boy returned to him, and he revived.
I Gospod usliši glas Ilijin, te se povrati u dijete duša njegova, i oživje.
23 And Elijah took the boy, and he brought him down from the upper room to the lower part of the house. And he gave him to his mother. And he said to her, “See, your son lives.”
A Ilija uzev dijete snese ga iz gornje klijeti u kuæu, i dade ga materi njegovoj, i reèe Ilija: vidi, živ je tvoj sin.
24 And the woman said to Elijah: “By this, I now realize that you are a man of God, and that the word of the Lord in your mouth is true.”
A žena reèe Iliji: sada znam da si èovjek Božji i da je rijeè Gospodnja u tvojim ustima istina.
