Kings III 17
1 And Eliu the prophet, the Thesbite of Thesbae of Galaad, said to Achaab, As the Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel, lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be these years dew nor rain, except by the word of my mouth.
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 the Lord came to Eliu, [saying],
Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa Iliya, ta ce,
3 Depart hence eastward, and hide you by the brook of Chorrath, that is before Jordan.
“Ka bar nan, ka nufi wajajen gabas, ka ɓuya a Rafin Kerit, gabas da Urdun.
4 And it shall be [that] you shall drink water of the brook, and I will charge the ravens to feed you there.
Za ka sha daga rafin, zan kuma umarci hankaki su ciyar da kai a can.”
5 And Eliu did according to the word of the Lord, and he sat by the brook of Chorrath before 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 loaves in the morning, and flesh in the evening and he drank water of the brook.
Hankaki suka riƙa kawo masa abinci da nama, safe da yamma, ya kuma sha daga rafin.
7 And it came to pass after some time, that the brook was dried up, because there had been no rain upon the earth.
Ana nan sai rafin ya bushe saboda ba a yi ruwan sama a ƙasar ba.
8 And the word of the Lord came to Eliu, [saying],
Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa Iliya cewa,
9 Arise, and go to Sarepta of the Sidonian [land]: behold, I have there commanded a widow-woman to maintain you.
“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 Sarepta, and came to the gate of the city: and, behold, a widow-woman was there gathering sticks; and Eliu cried after her, and said to her, Fetch me, I pray you, 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 Eliu cried after her, and said, Bring me, I pray you, a morsel of the bread that is in your 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 the woman said, [As] the Lord your God lives, I have not a cake, but only a handful of meal in the pitcher, and a little oil in a cruse, and, behold, I am going to gather two sticks, and I shall go in and dress it for myself and my children, and we shall 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 Eliu said to her, Be of good courage, go in and do according to your word: but make me thereof a little cake, and you shall bring [it] out to me first, and you shall make [some] for yourself and your children last.
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 says the Lord, The pitcher of meal shall not fail, and the cruse of oil shall not diminish, until the day that the Lord gives rain upon 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 the woman went and did [so], and did eat, she, and he, and her children.
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 And the pitcher of meal failed not, and the cruse of oil was not diminished, according to the word of the Lord which he spoke by the hand of Eliu.
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 afterward, that the son of the woman the mistress of the house was sick; and his sickness was very severe, until 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 Eliu, What have I to do with you, O man of God? have you come in to me to bring my sins to remembrance, and to kill 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 Eliu said to the woman, Give me your son. And he took him out of her bosom, and took him up to the chamber in which he himself lodged, and laid him on the 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 Eliu cried aloud, and said, Alas, O Lord, the witness of the widow with whom I sojourn, you have wrought evil [for her] in 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 breathed on the child thrice, and called on the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, let, I pray you, the soul of this child return to him.
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 it was so, and the child cried out,
Ubangiji kuwa ya ji kukan Iliya, sai ran yaron ya dawo masa, ya kuma rayu.
23 and he brought him down from the upper chamber into the house, and gave him to his mother; and Eliu said, See, your 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 Eliu, Behold, I know that you [are] a man of God, and the word of the Lord in your mouth [is] true.
Sai matar ta ce wa Iliya, “Yanzu na san cewa kai mutumin Allah ne, Ubangiji kuma yana magana ta wurinka.”
