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.
Ilija Tišbijac, iz Tišbe Gileadske, reče Ahabu: “Živoga mi Jahve, Boga Izraelova, komu služim, neće ovih godina biti ni rose ni kiše, osim na moju zapovijed.”
2 And the worde of the Lord came vnto him, saying,
Upućena mu je riječ Jahvina ovako:
3 Go hence, and turne thee Eastwarde, and hide thy selfe in the riuer Cherith, that is ouer against Iorden,
“Idi odavde i kreni na istok i sakrij se na potoku Keritu, koji je nasuprot Jordanu.
4 And thou shalt drinke of the riuer: and I haue comanded the rauens to feede thee there.
Pit ćeš iz potoka, a gavranima sam zapovjedio da te ondje hrane.”
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.
Ode on i učini po riječi Jahvinoj i nastani se na potoku Keritu, nasuprot Jordanu.
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.
Gavrani su mu jutrom donosili kruha, a večerom mesa; iz potoka je pio.
7 And after a while the riuer dryed vp, because there fell no rayne vpon the earth.
Ali poslije nekog vremena presuši potok, jer nije bilo kiše u svoj zemlji.
8 And the worde of the Lord came vnto him, saying,
Tada Iliji dođe riječ Jahvina:
9 Vp, and get thee to Zarephath, which is in Zidon, and remaine there: beholde, I haue commanded a widow there to sustaine thee.
“Ustani, idi u Sarfatu Sidonsku i ondje ostani. Evo, ondje sam zapovjedio jednoj udovici da te hrani.”
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.
Ustade on i krenu u Sarfatu. Kada je stigao do gradskih vrata, neka je udovica onuda skupljala drva; on joj se obrati i reče: “Donesi mi malo vode u vrču da pijem!”
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.
Kad je pošla da donese, on viknu za njom i reče joj: “Donesi mi i malo kruha u ruci!”
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.
Ona odgovori: “Živoga mi Jahve, tvoga Boga, ja nemam pečena kruha, nemam do pregršti brašna u ćupu i malo ulja u vrču. I evo kupim drva, pa ću otići i ono pripremiti sebi i svome sinu da pojedemo i da umremo.”
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.
Ali joj Ilija reče: “Ništa se ne boj. Idi i uradi kako si rekla; samo najprije umijesi meni kolačić, pa mi donesi; a onda zgotovi za sebe i za svoga sina.
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.
Jer ovako govori Jahve, Bog Izraelov: 'U ćupu neće brašna nestati ni vrč se s uljem neće isprazniti sve dokle Jahve ne pusti da kiša padne na zemlju.'”
15 So she went, and did as Eliiah sayd, and she did eate: so did he and her house for a certaine time.
Ode ona i učini kako je rekao Ilija; i za mnoge dane imadoše jela, ona, on i njen sin.
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.
Brašno se iz ćupa nije potrošilo i u vrču nije nestalo ulja, po riječi koju je Jahve rekao preko svoga sluge Ilije.
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.
Poslije ovih događaja razbolio se sin domaćičin i bolest se njegova jako pogoršala, tako te u njemu nije ostalo daha.
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?
Tada ona reče Iliji: “Što ja imam s tobom, čovječe Božji? Zar si došao k meni da me podsjetiš na moj grijeh i da mi usmrtiš sina!”
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.
On joj reče: “Daj mi svoga sina!” Tada ga uze iz njezina naručja, odnese ga u gornju sobu gdje je stanovao i položi ga na svoju postelju.
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?
Tada zavapi Jahvi i reče: “Jahve, Bože moj, zar zaista želiš udovicu koja me ugostila uvaliti u tugu umorivši joj sina?”
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.
Zatim se tri puta pružio nad dječakom zazivajući Jahvu: “Jahve, Bože, učini da se u ovo dijete vrati duša njegova!”
22 Then the Lord heard the voyce of Eliiah, and the soule of the child came into him againe, and he reuiued.
Jahve je uslišio molbu Ilijinu, u dijete se vratila duša i ono oživje.
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.
Ilija ga uze, siđe iz gornje sobe u kuću i dade ga njegovoj materi; i reče Ilija: “Evo, tvoj sin živi!”
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.
Žena mu reče: “Sada znam da si ti čovjek Božji i da je riječ Jahvina u tvojim ustima istinita!”
