1 Kings 17
1 And Eliiah the Tishbite one of the inhabitats of Gilead sayde vnto Ahab, As the Lord God of Israel liueth, before whom I stand, there shall be neither dewe nor rayne these yeeres, but according to my worde.
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 worde of the Lord came vnto him, saying,
耶和华的话临到以利亚说：
3 Go hence, and turne thee Eastwarde, and hide thy selfe in the riuer Cherith, that is ouer against Iorden,
“你离开这里往东去，藏在约旦河东边的基立溪旁。
4 And thou shalt drinke of the riuer: and I haue comanded the rauens to feede 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 vnto the word of the Lord: for he went, and remained by the riuer Cherith that is ouer against Iorden.
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 rauens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the euening, and he dranke of the riuer.
乌鸦早晚给他叼饼和肉来，他也喝那溪里的水。
7 And after a while the riuer dryed vp, because there fell no rayne vpon the earth.
过了些日子，溪水就干了，因为雨没有下在地上。
8 And the worde of the Lord came vnto him, saying,
耶和华的话临到他说：
9 Vp, and get thee to Zarephath, which is in Zidon, and remaine there: beholde, I haue commanded a widow there to sustaine 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 So he arose, and went to Zarephath: and when he came to the gate of the citie, beholde, the widowe was there gathering stickes: and he called her, and sayde, Bring me, I pray thee, a litle water in a vessel, that I may drinke.
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 as she was going to fet it, he called to her, and sayde, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsell of bread in thine 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 shee sayde, As the Lord thy God liueth, I haue not a cake, but euen an handfull of meale in a barrel, and a litle oyle in a cruse: and behold, I am gathering a fewe stickes for to go in, and dresse it for me and my sonne, that we may eate it, and dye.
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 Eliiah said vnto her, Feare not, come, do as thou hast sayd, but make me thereof a litle cake first of all, and bring it vnto mee, and afterward make for thee, and thy sonne.
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 God of Israel, The meale in the barrel shall not be wasted, neither shall the oyle in the cruse be diminished, vnto the time that the Lord send rayne vpon 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 So she went, and did as Eliiah sayd, and she did eate: so did he and her house for a certaine time.
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 barrell of the meale wasted not, nor the oyle was spent out of the cruse, according to the worde of the Lord, which he spake by the hand of Eliiah.
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 after these things, the sonne of the wife of the house fell sicke, and his sicknesse was so sore, 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 vnto Eliiah, What haue I to do with thee, O thou man of God? art thou come vnto me to call my sinne to remembrance, and to slay my sonne?
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 he said vnto her, Giue me thy sonne. and he tooke him out of her bosome, and caryed him vp into a chamber, where he abode, and laid him vpon his owne 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 Then he called vnto the Lord, and sayde, O Lord my God, hast thou punished also this widowe, with whome I soiourne, by killing her sonne?
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 himselfe vpon the childe three times, and called vnto the Lord, and saide, O Lord my God, I pray thee, let this childes soule come into him againe.
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 Then the Lord heard the voyce of Eliiah, and the soule of the child came into him againe, and he reuiued.
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 Eliiah tooke the childe, and brought him downe out of the chamber into the house, and deliuered him vnto his mother, and Eliiah sayd, Behold, thy sonne liueth.
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 saide vnto Eliiah, Now I knowe that thou art a man of God, and that the worde 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。”
