< 1 Kings 19 >

1 Ahab told Jezebel everything that Elijah had done and that he had killed all the prophets of Baal with the sword.
Tokosra Ahab el srumun nu sel Jezebel, mutan kial, ke ma nukewa ma Elijah el oru, ac ke el tuh uniya nufon mwet palu lal Baal.
2 Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah to say, “May the gods do as much to me and more if by tomorrow I haven't made your life like the lives of those you killed!”
Na Jezebel el sapla nu sel Elijah ac fahk, “Nga fin tia folokin nu sum, ke pacl se inge lutu, ke ouiya se na ma kom oru nu sin mwet palu ma kom uniya ah, lela god uh in uniyuwi ngan misa!”
3 Elijah was afraid and ran for his life. When he arrived in Beersheba in Judah, he left his servant there
Elijah el sangeng ac kaing in suk moul lal. El eis mwet kulansap se lal ac som nu Beersheba in acn Judah. El filiya mwet kulansap sac we,
4 and traveled another day's journey into the desert. He sat down under a broom tree and asked to die. “I've had enough now, Lord,” he said. “Take my life! I'm no better than my forefathers.”
ac el fahsr ke len fon se uten acn uh. El muta mongla ye lulin sak soko ac kena elan misa. El pre ac fahk, “LEUM GOD, arulana upala! Eisla moul luk! Fal na ngan misa!”
5 He lay down and fell asleep under the broom tree. All of a sudden an angel touched him and said, “Get up, and eat.”
El ona ye sak soko ac motulla. In kitin pacl ah na sie lipufan lun LEUM GOD kahlilya ac fahk, “Tukakek mongo.”
6 He looked around, and there beside his head was some bread baking over hot coals, and a jar of water. He ate and drank and lay down again.
El ngutalik, ngetot ngetma nwe liyauk srukwal in flao se manman fin eot fol, ac sufa in kof soko oan apkuran nu ke sifal. El mongoi ac nimkofi ac sifilpa ona.
7 The angel of the Lord returned a second time and touched him, and said, “Get up and eat, otherwise the journey will be too much for you.”
Lipufan sac el sifil foloko, ac oaksalak pacl se akluo ac fahk, “Tukakek mongoi, mweyen kom fin tia, ac arulana upa nu sum in fahsr.”
8 So he got up and ate and drank, and with the strength the food gave him he was able to walk forty days and forty nights to Mount Horeb, the mountain of God.
Elijah el tukakek ac mongoi ac nimkofi, na mongoi lal ah sang ku lal in fahsr len angngaul nu fineol mutal Sinai.
9 There he entered a cave and spent the night. The Lord spoke to Elijah, and asked him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
Ke el sun acn we, el utyak nu in sie luf in motulla we ke fong se. In pacl sac na, LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sel ac fahk, “Elijah, mea kom oru inge uh?”
10 “I have worked passionately for the Lord God Almighty,” he replied. “But the Israelites have abandoned your agreement, torn down your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword. I am the only one who's left, and they are trying to kill me as well.”
El topuk, “LEUM GOD Kulana, kom mukena pa nga kulansupu in pacl nukewa. Tusruktu mwet Israel elos pilesrala wulela lalos yurum, ac kunausla loang lom uh, ac uniya mwet palu lom nukewa. Nga mukena pa lula sin mwet palu uh, ac elos suk pac in uniyuwi!”
11 Then the Lord told him, “Go out and stand on the mountain before the Lord.” Right then the Lord passed by. A tremendously powerful wind ripped into the mountains and smashed rocks before the Lord, but the Lord wasn't in the wind. After the wind there came an earthquake, but the Lord wasn't in the earthquake.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Illa ac tu ye mutuk fin mangon eol uh.” Ouinge LEUM GOD El fahla alukela, ac supwama eng na upa se, ac fulungya eol uh ac fukulya eot uh, a LEUM GOD El wangin in eng uh. Ke eng uh tui, na kusrusr se sikyak, tuh LEUM GOD El wangin pac in kusrusr sac.
12 After the earthquake there came a fire, but the Lord wasn't in the fire. And after the fire came a voice speaking in a gentle whisper.
Tukun kusrusr sac, na oasr e se, tuh LEUM GOD El wangin in e sac. Ac tukun e sac, oasr pusra na srisrik ac fisrasr se.
13 When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his cloak around his face and went out and stood at the cave entrance. Immediately a voice spoke to him and asked, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
Ke Elijah el lohng, el afinya mutal ke nuknuk lik lal, ac el illa ac tu ke mutun luf sac. Na pusra se fahk nu sel, “Elijah, mea kom oru inge uh?”
14 “I have worked passionately for the Lord God Almighty,” he replied. “But the Israelites have abandoned your agreement, torn down your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword. I am the only one who's left, and they are trying to kill me as well.”
El topuk, “LEUM GOD Kulana, kom mukena pa nga kulansupu in pacl nukewa. Tusruktu mwet Israel elos pilesrala wulela lalos yurum, ac kunausla loang lom uh, ac uniya mwet palu lom nukewa. Nga mukena pa lula sin mwet palu uh, ac elos suk pac in uniyuwi.”
15 The Lord told him, “Go back the way you came to the desert of Damascus. When you get there, go and anoint Hazael king of Aram.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Folokla nu yen turangang uten acn Damascus, ac utyak nu in siti uh, ac mosrwella Hazael elan tokosra lun Syria.
16 Also anoint Jehu, son of Nimshi, king of Israel and Elisha, son of Shaphat, from Abel-meholah, to take over from you as prophet.
Mosrwella Jehu wen natul Nimshi elan tokosra lun Israel, ac mosrwella Elisha wen natul Shaphat mwet Abel Meholah tuh elan mwet palu aol kom.
17 Jehu will execute anyone who escapes the sword of Hazael, and Elisha will execute anyone who escapes the sword of Jehu.
Kutena mwet su kaingla ac tia anwuki sel Hazael ac fah anwuki sel Jehu, a mwet su kaingla lukel Jehu, ac fah anwuki sel Elisha.
18 I still have seven thousand left in Israel, all those who have not bowed their knees to worship and whose mouths have not kissed him.”
Tusruktu nga ac fah likiya mwet itkosr tausin in moulna fin acn Israel, aok elos nukewa su inse pwaye nu sik ac tia alu nu sel Baal, ku ngok mutun ma sruloala lal.”
19 So Elijah left, and went and found Elisha, son of Shaphat. He was plowing with twelve pairs of oxen, and he was with the twelfth pair. Elijah went over to him and threw his cloak around him.
Elijah el som tuh konalak Elisha ke el kihling ima lal ke plau. Oasr u in ox singoul sie fahsr meet lukel, kais lukwa ox ke u se, ac Elisha el orekmakin u se ma fahsr oetok. Elijah el eisla nuknuk se afinyal ac filiya facl Elisha.
20 Elisha left the oxen, ran after Elijah, and said, “Please let me go and kiss my father and mother goodbye, and then I will follow you.” “Go on home,” Elijah replied. “I've never done anything for you.”
Elisha el filiya ox natul, ac kasrusr tokol Elijah ac fahk, “Kom ku in soaneyu ngan som wilkas nu sel papa ac nina, na nga fah tuku wi kom.” Ac Elijah el fahk, “Wona. Folokot, nga tia ikol kom!”
21 Elisha left him, took his pair of oxen, and slaughtered them. Using the wood of the oxen's yoke as fuel, he cooked the meat and gave it to the people, and they ate it. Then he left to follow and serve Elijah.
Na Elisha el som nu ke ox lukwa natul ac uniya, ac etongkin mwe palpal kac in sang akmoulyela ikwa uh, na el sang kiteya mwet uh. Toko el som welul Elijah in mwet kasru lal.
