1 Kings 17
1 And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, As Jehovah the God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, except by my word.
To, Iliya mutumin Tishbe, daga Tishbe a Gileyad, ya ce wa Ahab, “Muddin Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila wanda nake bauta wa yana a raye, ba za a yi raɓa ko ruwan sama a’yan shekaru masu zuwa ba, sai ko na faɗa haka.”
2 And the word of Jehovah came to him saying,
Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa Iliya, ta ce,
3 Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the torrent Cherith, which is before the Jordan.
“Ka bar nan, ka nufi wajajen gabas, ka ɓuya a Rafin Kerit, gabas da Urdun.
4 And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the torrent; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.
Za ka sha daga rafin, zan kuma umarci hankaki su ciyar da kai a can.”
5 And he went and did according to the word of Jehovah; he went and abode by the torrent Cherith, which is before the Jordan.
Saboda haka sai Iliya ya yi abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa masa. Ya tafi Rafin Kerit, gabas da Urdun, ya zauna a can.
6 And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the torrent.
Hankaki suka riƙa kawo masa abinci da nama, safe da yamma, ya kuma sha daga rafin.
7 And it came to pass after a while that the torrent dried up, for there had been no rain in the land.
Ana nan sai rafin ya bushe saboda ba a yi ruwan sama a ƙasar ba.
8 And the word of Jehovah came to him saying,
Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa Iliya cewa,
9 Arise, go to Zarephath, which is by Zidon, and abide there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to maintain thee.
“Je ka, nan take, zuwa Zarefat na Sidon, ka zauna a can. Na umarci wata gwauruwa a can tă ciyar da kai.”
10 And he arose and went to Zarephath; and when he came to the entrance of the city, behold, a widow woman 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.
Saboda haka sai ya tafi Zarefat. Sa’ad da ya isa ƙofar gari, sai ga wata gwauruwa tana tattara’yan itace. Sai ya kira ta, ya ce, “Ki kawo mini ɗan ruwa a tulu don in sha.”
11 And she went to fetch [it], and he called to her and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thy hand.
Da ta kama hanya za tă tafi tă kawo, sai ya sāke kiranta ya ce, “Ina roƙonki, ki kuma kawo mini ɗan abinci.”
12 And she said, As Jehovah thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but a handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a 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.
Sai ta ce masa, “Na rantse da Ubangiji Allahnka, ba ni da wani abinci, sai dai ɗan gari hannu guda a tulu, da kuma ɗan mai a kwalaba. Ina tattara’yan itacen nan ne don in kai gida in yi abinci wa kaina da ɗana, don mu ci, mu mutu.”
13 And Elijah said to her, Fear not; go, do as thou hast said; but make me thereof a little cake first; and bring it to me; and afterwards make for thee and for thy son.
Iliya ya ce mata, “Kada ki ji tsoro. Ki tafi gida, ki yi yadda kika ce. Amma da farko ki yi mini’yar wainar burodi daga abin da kike da shi ki kawo mini, sa’an nan ki yi wani abu wa kanki da kuma ɗanki.
14 For thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: The meal in the barrel shall not waste, neither shall the oil in the cruse fail, until the day that Jehovah sendeth rain upon the face of the earth!
Gama abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce, ‘Tulun garin ba zai ƙare ba, kwalabar man kuma ba zai bushe ba sai ranar da Ubangiji ya bayar da ruwan sama a ƙasar.’”
15 And she went and did according to the word of Elijah; and she, and he, and her house, ate a whole year.
Sai ta tafi, ta yi yadda Iliya ya faɗa mata. Saboda haka aka kasance da abinci kowace rana wa Iliya da kuma don macen da iyalinta.
16 The meal in the barrel did not waste, neither did the oil in the cruse fail, according to the word of Jehovah which he had spoken through Elijah.
Gama tulun garin bai ƙare ba, kwalabar man kuma bai bushe ba, kamar yadda Ubangiji ya faɗa wa Iliya.
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.
Ana nan sai ɗan matan, wato, gwauruwan nan ya fara ciwo. Ciwon ya ƙara muni, daga ƙarshe sai ya daina numfashi.
18 And she said to Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? art thou come to me to call mine iniquity to remembrance, and to slay my son?
Sai ta ce wa Iliya, “Mutumin Allah, yaya haka? Ka zo ne domin ka nuna wa Allah zunubaina, ka kuma jawo mutuwar ɗana?”
19 And he said to her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into the upper chamber where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed.
Iliya ya ce, “Ki miƙa mini ɗanki.” Sai ya ɗauke shi daga hannuwanta, ya kai shi ɗakin sama inda yake zama, ya kwantar da shi a gadonsa.
20 And he cried to Jehovah and said, Jehovah, my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son?
Sa’an nan ya yi kuka ga Ubangiji ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji Allahna, don me ka kawo wannan masifa a kan gwauruwan nan? Kai ka ce in zauna tare da ita, ga shi yanzu ɗanta ya mutu.”
21 And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried to Jehovah and said, Jehovah, my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again!
Sai ya kwanta, ya miƙe kansa a kan yaron sau uku, ya kuma yi kuka ga Ubangiji ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji Allahna, ka mai da ran yaron nan!”
22 And Jehovah heard the voice of Elijah, and the soul of the child came into him again, and he lived.
Ubangiji kuwa ya ji kukan Iliya, sai ran yaron ya dawo masa, ya kuma rayu.
23 And Elijah took the child, and brought him down from the upper chamber into the house, and delivered him to his mother; and Elijah said, See, thy son lives.
Iliya ya ɗauki yaron ya sauko da shi daga ɗakin sama zuwa cikin gida. Ya ba da shi ga mahaifiyarsa, ya ce, “Duba, ɗanki yana da rai!”
24 And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this I know that thou art a man of God, and that the word of Jehovah in thy mouth is truth.
Sai matar ta ce wa Iliya, “Yanzu na san cewa kai mutumin Allah ne, Ubangiji kuma yana magana ta wurinka.”
