1 Kings 17
1 And Elias the Thesbite of the inhabitants of Galaad said to Achab: As the Lord liveth the God of Israel, in whose sight I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to the words of my mouth.
基列寄居的提斯比人以利亚对亚哈说：“我指着所事奉永生耶和华—以色列的 神起誓，这几年我若不祷告，必不降露，不下雨。”
2 And the word of the Lord came to him, saying:
耶和华的话临到以利亚说：
3 Get thee hence, and go towards the east and hide thyself by the torrent of Carith, which is over against the Jordan,
“你离开这里往东去，藏在约旦河东边的基立溪旁。
4 And there thou shalt drink of the torrent: and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.
你要喝那溪里的水，我已吩咐乌鸦在那里供养你。”
5 So he went, and did according to the word of the Lord: and going, he dwelt by the torrent Carith, which is over against the Jordan.
于是以利亚照着耶和华的话，去住在约旦河东的基立溪旁。
6 And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening, and he drank of tile torrent.
乌鸦早晚给他叼饼和肉来，他也喝那溪里的水。
7 But after some time the torrent was dried up, for it had not rained upon the earth.
过了些日子，溪水就干了，因为雨没有下在地上。
8 Then the word of the Lord came to him, saying:
耶和华的话临到他说：
9 Arise, and go to Sarephta of the Sidonians, and dwell there: for I have commanded a widow woman there to feed thee.
“你起身往西顿的撒勒法去，住在那里；我已吩咐那里的一个寡妇供养你。”
10 He arose, and went to Sarephta. And when he was come to the gate of the city, he saw the widow woman gathering sticks, and he called her, and said to her: Give me a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
以利亚就起身往撒勒法去。到了城门，见有一个寡妇在那里捡柴，以利亚呼叫她说：“求你用器皿取点水来给我喝。”
11 And when she was going to fetch it he called after her, saying: Bring me also, I beseech thee, a morsel of bread in thy hand.
她去取水的时候，以利亚又呼叫她说：“也求你拿点饼来给我！”
12 And she answered: As the Lord thy God liveth, I have no bread, but only a handful of meal in a pot, and a little oil in a cruse: 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.
她说：“我指着永生耶和华—你的 神起誓，我没有饼，坛内只有一把面，瓶里只有一点油；我现在找两根柴，回家要为我和我儿子做饼；我们吃了，死就死吧！”
13 And Elias said to her: Fear not, but go, and do as thou hast said: but first make for me of the same meal a little hearth cake, and bring it to me: and after make for thyself and thy son.
以利亚对她说：“不要惧怕！可以照你所说的去做吧！只要先为我做一个小饼拿来给我，然后为你和你的儿子做饼。
14 For thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: The pot of meal shall not waste, nor the cruse of oil be diminished, until the day wherein the Lord will give rain upon the face of the earth.
因为耶和华—以色列的 神如此说：坛内的面必不减少，瓶里的油必不缺短，直到耶和华使雨降在地上的日子。”
15 She went and did according to the word of Elias: and he ate, and she, and her house: and from that day
妇人就照以利亚的话去行。她和她家中的人，并以利亚，吃了许多日子。
16 The pot of meal wasted not, and the cruse of oil was not diminished, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke in the hand of Elias.
坛内的面果不减少，瓶里的油也不缺短，正如耶和华借以利亚所说的话。
17 And it came to pass after this that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick, and the sickness was very grievous, so that there was no breath left in him.
这事以后，作那家主母的妇人，她儿子病了；病得甚重，以致身无气息。
18 And she said to Elias: What have I to do with thee, thou man of God? art thou come to me that my iniquities should be remembered, and that thou shouldst kill my son?
妇人对以利亚说：“神人哪，我与你何干？你竟到我这里来，使 神想念我的罪，以致我的儿子死呢？”
19 And Elias said to her: Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him into the upper chamber where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed.
以利亚对她说：“把你儿子交给我。”以利亚就从妇人怀中将孩子接过来，抱到他所住的楼中，放在自己的床上，
20 And he cried to the Lord, and said: O Lord my God, hast thou afflicted also the widow, with whom I am after a so maintained, so as to kill her son?
就求告耶和华说：“耶和华—我的 神啊，我寄居在这寡妇的家里，你就降祸与她，使她的儿子死了吗？”
21 And he stretched, and measured himself upon the child three times, and cried to the Lord, and said: O Lord my God, let the soul of this child, I beseech thee, return into his body.
以利亚三次伏在孩子的身上，求告耶和华说：“耶和华—我的 神啊，求你使这孩子的灵魂仍入他的身体！”
22 And the Lord heard the voice of Elias: and the soul of the child returned into him, and he revived.
耶和华应允以利亚的话，孩子的灵魂仍入他的身体，他就活了。
23 And Elias took the child, and brought him down from the upper chamber to the house below, and delivered him to his mother, and said to her: Behold thy son liveth.
以利亚将孩子从楼上抱下来，进屋子交给他母亲，说：“看哪，你的儿子活了！”
24 And the woman said to Elias: Now, by this I know that thou art a man of God, and the word of the Lord in thy mouth is true.
妇人对以利亚说：“现在我知道你是神人，耶和华借你口所说的话是真的。”
