1 Kings 17
1 Then said Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gil'ad, unto Achab, As the Lord the God of Israel liveth, before whom I have stood, there shall not be in these years dew or rain, except according to my word.
गिलादको तिश्बेका तिश्बी एलियाले आहाबलाई भने, “इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभु जसको सामु म खडा छु, उहाँको नाउँमा म भन्दछु कि मैले नभनेसम्म पानी पर्ने छैन वा शीत पर्ने छैन ।”
2 And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,
परमप्रभुको वचन एलियाकहाँ आयो,
3 Go away from here, and turn thyself eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Kerith, which is to the east of the Jordan.
“यस ठाउँलाई छाडेर पूर्वतिर जा । यर्दनको पूर्वमा पर्ने करीत खोलामा लुकेर बस् ।
4 And it shall be, that out of the brook shalt thou drink; and the ravens have I ordained to sustain thee there.
तैँले त्यही खोलाबाट पानी पिउने छस्, र मैले तँलाई खुवाउन कागहरूलाइ आज्ञा गरेको छु ।”
5 And he went and did according to the word of the Lord; and he went and remained by the brook Kerith, that is to the east of the Jordan.
एलिया गए, र परमप्रभुले आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ तिनले गरे । तिनी यर्दनको पूर्वमा पर्ने केरीत खोलानेर बस्न गए ।
6 And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening: and out of the brook he used to drink.
कागहरूले तिनलाई बिहान र बेलुका रोटी र मासु ल्याए, अनि तिनले खोलाबाट पानी पिए ।
7 And it came to pass after a while that the brook dried up; because there had been no rain in the land.
तर देशमा पानी नपरेकोले केही समय बितेपछि खोला सुक्यो ।
8 And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,
परमप्रभुको वचन तिनीकहाँ आयो,
9 Arise, go unto Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and remain there: behold, I have ordained there a widow-woman to sustain thee.
“उठेर सीदोनको सारपातमा जा, र त्यही बस् । हेर्, तेरो खानाको बन्दोवस्त मिलाउन मैले त्यहाँ एउटी विधवालाई आज्ञा दिएको छु ।”
10 So he arose and went to Zarephath; and when he came to the gate of the city, behold, there was there a widow-woman gathering sticks of wood: and he called her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
त्यसैले तिनी उठेर सारपातमा गए । तिनी सहरको मुल ढोकामा आइपुग्दा एउटी विधवाले दाउरा बटुल्दै थिइन् । तिनले उनलाई डाकेर भने, “मलाई पिउनलाई यो भाँडोमा थोरै पानी ल्याइदिनुहुन्छ कि?”
11 And as she went to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thy hand.
उनी पानी लिन जाँदै गर्दा तिनले उनलाई भने, “तपाईंको हातमा रोटीको टुक्रा पनि ल्याइदिनुहोस् ।”
12 And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have nothing baked, but a handful of meal in a jar, and a little oil in a cruise: and, behold, I am gathering a couple of sticks, that I may go in and prepare it for me and my son; and when we have eaten it, we shall have to die.
उनले भनिन्, “परमप्रभु तपाईंका परमेश्वरको नाउँमा म भन्दछु, कि मसित कुनै रोटी छैन, तर भाँडामा एक मुट्ठी पिठो र ढुङ्ग्रोमा अलकति तेल छ । हेर्नुहोस्, म र मेरो छोरोको लागि खाना बनाई खाएर हामी नमरूँ भनी मैले दुईचार टुक्रा दाउरा बटुल्दै छु ।”
13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said; but make me thereof a little cake at first, and bring it out unto me, and for thee and for thy son shalt thou prepare [something] afterward.
एलियाले उनलाई भने, “नडराऊ । गएर मैले भनेझैँ गर, तर पहिले मेरो निम्ति सानो रोटी बनाएर ल्याऊ । त्यसपछि तिमी र तिम्रो छोरोको निम्ती केही रोटी बनाऊ ।
14 For thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, The jar of meal shall not fail, neither shall the cruise of oil diminish, until the day that the Lord giveth rain upon the face of the earth.
किनकि इस्राएलका परमेश्वर परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, 'परमप्रभुले पृथ्वीमा वृष्टि नपठाउञ्जेलसम्म पिठोको भाँडो रित्तो हुने छैन, न त ढुङ्ग्रोबाट तेल आउन रोकिने छ ।”
15 And she went and did according to the word of Elijah: and she, and he, and her household, did eat [many] days.
त्यसैले उनले एलियाले भनेझैँ गरिन् । उनी र एलियालगायत उनको घरानाले धेरै दिनसम्म खाए ।
16 The jar of meal failed not, nor did the cruise of oil diminish, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken through means of Elijah.
परमप्रभुले एलियाद्वारा बोल्नुभएको वचनले भनेझैँ पिठोको भाँडो रित्तो भएन, न त ढुङ्ग्रोबाट तेल आउन रोकियो ।
17 And it came to pass after these events, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness became very severe, until that at length there was no breath left in him.
यी कुरापछि ती स्त्री अर्थात् त्यस घरको मालिक्नीको छोरो बिरामी पर्यो । त्यसको रोग यति गम्भीर थियो कि त्यसले सास फेर्नै छोड्यो ।
18 And she said unto Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O man of God? thou art come unto me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son!
त्यसैले त्यसकी आमाले एलियालाई भनिन्, “हे परमेश्वरका जन, मेरो विरुद्धमा तपाईंसित के छ? के तपाईं मेरो पापलाई स्मरण गराई मेरो छोरोलाई मार्न आउनुभएको हो?”
19 And he said unto her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into the upper chamber, in which he abode, and he laid him upon his own bed.
तब एलियाले उनलाई जवाफ दिए, “तपाईंको छोरो मलाई दिनुहोस् ।” तिनले उनका पाखुराबाट शरीरलाई लिई आफू बसेको कोठामा लगे, र आफ्नै ओछ्यानमा सुताए ।
20 And he called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son?
तिनले परमप्रभुलाई पुकारे, “हे परमप्रभु मेरा परमेश्वर, के तपाईंले म जुन विधवासित बसिरहेको छु, उनको छोरोलाई मारेर उनीमाथि विपत्ति ल्याउनुभएको हो?”
21 And he stretched himself out over the child three times, and called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, let, I pray thee, the soul of this child return again within him.
त्यसपछि एलिया त्यस बालकमाथि तिन पटक लम्पसार परेर सुते । तिनले परमप्रभुलाई पुकारे, “हे परमप्रभु मेरा परमेश्वर, यो बालकको जीवन फर्कोस् भनी म तपाईंलाई बिन्ती गर्दछु ।”
22 And the Lord listened to the voice of Elijah: and the soul of the child returned into him, and he revived.
परमप्रभुले एलियाको कुरा सुन्नुभयो । बालकको जीवन फर्केर आयो र त्यो जीवित भयो ।
23 And Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the upper chamber into the house, and gave him unto his mother; and Elijah said, See, thy son liveth.
एलियाले बालकलाई लिई कोठाबाट बाहिर ल्याए । बालकलाई त्यसकी आमाको जिम्मा लगाएर तिनले भने, “हेर, तिम्रो छोरो बाँचेको छ ।”
24 And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this do I know, that thou art a man of God, and the word of the Lord in thy mouth is truth.
ती स्त्रीले एलियालाई भनिन्, “अब मलाई थाहा भयो, कि तपाईं परमेश्वरका जन हुनुहुँदोरहेछ र तपाईंको बोलीमा भएको परमप्रभुको वचन तपाईंको मुखमा साँचो रहेछ ।”
