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.
Elijah ará Tiṣibi láti Tiṣbi ní Gileadi wí fún Ahabu pé, “Bí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli ti wà, ẹni tí èmi ń sìn, kì yóò sí ìrì tàbí òjò ní ọdún díẹ̀ tí ń bọ̀ bí kò ṣe nípa ọ̀rọ̀ mi.”
2 And the word of the Lord came to Eliu, [saying],
Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Elijah wá pé,
3 Depart hence eastward, and hide you by the brook of Chorrath, that is before Jordan.
“Kúrò níhìn-ín, kọjú sí ìhà ìlà-oòrùn, kí o sì fi ara rẹ pamọ́ níbi odò Keriti, tí ń bẹ níwájú Jordani.
4 And it shall be [that] you shall drink water of the brook, and I will charge the ravens to feed you there.
Ìwọ yóò mu nínú odò náà, mo sì ti pàṣẹ fún àwọn ẹyẹ ìwò láti máa bọ́ ọ níbẹ̀.”
5 And Eliu did according to the word of the Lord, and he sat by the brook of Chorrath before Jordan.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti sọ fún un. Ó sì lọ sí ẹ̀bá odò Keriti, tí ń bẹ níwájú Jordani, ó sì dúró síbẹ̀.
6 And the ravens brought him loaves in the morning, and flesh in the evening and he drank water of the brook.
Àwọn ẹyẹ ìwò sì mú àkàrà àti ẹran wá fún un ní òwúrọ̀, àti àkàrà àti ẹran ní alẹ́, ó sì ń mu nínú odò náà.
7 And it came to pass after some time, that the brook was dried up, because there had been no rain upon the earth.
Ó sì ṣe lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ díẹ̀, odò náà sì gbẹ nítorí kò sí òjò ní ilẹ̀ náà.
8 And the word of the Lord came to Eliu, [saying],
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ̀ ọ́ wá wí pé,
9 Arise, and go to Sarepta of the Sidonian [land]: behold, I have there commanded a widow-woman to maintain you.
“Lọ nísinsin yìí sí Sarefati ti Sidoni, kí o sì dúró síbẹ̀. Èmi ti pàṣẹ fún obìnrin opó kan níbẹ̀ láti máa bọ́ ọ.”
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.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì lọ sí Sarefati. Nígbà tí ó sì dé ibodè ìlú náà, obìnrin opó kan ń ṣa igi jọ níbẹ̀. Ó sì ké sí i, ó sì béèrè pé, “Ǹjẹ́ o lè bu omi díẹ̀ fún mi wá nínú ohun èlò kí èmi kí ó lè mu?”
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.
Bí ó sì ti ń lọ bù ú wá, ó ké sí i pé, “Jọ̀ ọ́, mú òkèlè oúnjẹ díẹ̀ fún mi wá lọ́wọ́ rẹ.”
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.
Obìnrin opó náà sì dá a lóhùn wí pé, “Bí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ ti wà, èmi kò ní àkàrà, bí kò ṣe ìkúnwọ́ ìyẹ̀fun nínú ìkòkò àti òróró díẹ̀ nínú kólòbó. Èmi ń ṣa igi díẹ̀ jọ láti kó lọ ilé, kí èmi kí ó sì pèsè rẹ̀ fún mi àti fún ọmọ mi, kí àwa lè jẹ ẹ́: kí a sì kú.”
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.
Elijah sì wí fún un pé, “Má ṣe bẹ̀rù. Lọ, kí o sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ti wí. Ṣùgbọ́n kọ́kọ́ ṣe àkàrà kékeré kan fún mi nínú rẹ̀ ná, kí o sì mú fún mi wá, lẹ́yìn náà, kí o ṣe tìrẹ àti ti ọmọ rẹ.
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.
Nítorí báyìí ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí: ‘Ìkòkò ìyẹ̀fun náà kì yóò ṣófo, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kólòbó òróró náà kì yóò gbẹ, títí di ọjọ́ tí Olúwa yóò rọ òjò sí orí ilẹ̀.’”
15 And the woman went and did [so], and did eat, she, and he, and her children.
Ó sì lọ, ó sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Elijah ti sọ fún un. Oúnjẹ sì wà fún Elijah àti obìnrin náà àti ilé rẹ̀ ní ojoojúmọ́.
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.
Nítorí ìkòkò ìyẹ̀fun náà kò ṣófo, kólòbó òróró náà kò gbẹ, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ó ti ipa Elijah sọ.
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.
Ó sì ṣe lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí, ọmọ obìnrin tí ó ni ilé náà ṣe àìsàn, àìsàn náà sì le tó bẹ́ẹ̀, tí ó fi kú.
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?
Obìnrin náà sì wí fún Elijah pé, “Kí lo ní sí mi, ènìyàn Ọlọ́run? Ìwọ ha tọ̀ mí wá láti mú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi wá sí ìrántí, àti láti pa mí ní ọmọ?”
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.
Elijah sì wí fún un pé, “Gbé ọmọ rẹ fún mi.” Ó sì yọ ọ́ jáde ní àyà rẹ̀, ó sì gbé e lọ sí iyàrá òkè ilé níbi tí òun ń gbé, ó sì tẹ́ ẹ sí orí ibùsùn tirẹ̀.
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.
Nígbà náà ni ó sì ké pe Olúwa wí pé, “Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi, ìwọ ha mú ibi wá bá opó náà pẹ̀lú lọ́dọ̀ ẹni tí èmi ń ṣe àtìpó, nípa pípa ọmọ rẹ̀?”
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.
Nígbà náà ni ó sì na ara rẹ̀ lórí ọmọdé náà ní ẹ̀ẹ̀mẹta, ó sì ké pe Olúwa pé, “Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi, jẹ́ kí ẹ̀mí ọmọdé yìí kí ó tún padà tọ̀ ọ́ wá!”
22 And it was so, and the child cried out,
Olúwa sì gbọ́ igbe Elijah, ẹ̀mí ọmọdé náà sì tún padà tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó sì sọjí.
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.
Elijah sì mú ọmọdé náà, ó sì gbé e sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti inú yàrá òkè náà wá sínú ilé. Ó sì fi lé ìyá rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́; Elijah sì wí pé, “Wò ó, ọmọ rẹ yè!”
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.
Obìnrin náà sì wí fún Elijah pé, “Nísinsin yìí mo mọ̀ pé ènìyàn Ọlọ́run ni ìwọ ń ṣe, àti pé òtítọ́ ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ní ẹnu rẹ.”
