1 Kings 17
1 And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, says to Ahab, “YHWH, God of Israel, lives, before whom I have stood, there is not dew and rain these years, except according to my word.”
Gilead gamsung, Tishbe khoa akona hung Elijah in Ahab lengpa kom ah, “Akin ka toh jing, hing jing Pakai Israel Pathen min’a ka sei ahi, ‘Keiman thu kapeh to kahse’a kum phabep sunga hi gotwi leh daitwi lha lou ding ahi,” ati.
2 And the word of YHWH is to him, saying,
Hijou chun Pakaiyin Elijah kom ah hitin ahin sei tai,
3 “Go from this [place]; and you have turned for yourself eastward, and been hidden by the Brook of Cherith that [is] on the front of the Jordan,
“Hiche mun hi dalhan lang, nisolam jonin Jordan luigal niso lam, Kerith vadung koma khun gakiseltan,
4 and it has been [that] you drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to sustain you there.”
Hiche vadung’a twihi don inlang chuleh va-ahten ahin poh hochu nejing in, ajeh chu keiman an nahin poh peh ding’a ka nganse ahi,” ati.
5 And he goes and does according to the word of YHWH, indeed, he goes and dwells by the Brook of Cherith, that [is] on the front of the Jordan,
Elijah chun Pakaiyin aseipeh bang bangin abol in, Jordan solang Kerith vadung pang’a chun apansa tan ahi.
6 and the ravens are bringing bread and flesh to him in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening, and he drinks from the brook.
Va-ah techun jingkah nilhah in anneh ding chang lhah le sa ahin pohpeh jin chuleh vacha twi chu adonjin ahi.
7 And it comes to pass, at the end of [the] days, that the brook dries up, for there has been no rain in the land,
Ahin chomkhat jouvin hiche vadung jong chu akang tan ahi, ajeh chu gamsung’a go ana ju tapon ahi.
8 and the word of YHWH is to him, saying,
Hijou chun Pakaiyin Elijah kom’a thu hitin ahin seiye,
9 “Rise, go to Zarephath, that [belongs] to Sidon, and you have dwelt there; behold, I have commanded a widow woman to sustain you there.”
“Nangma chen lang Sidon khopi kom’a Zarephath khoa ga che tan,” ati.
10 And he rises, and goes to Zarephath, and comes to the opening of the city, and behold, there [is] a widow woman gathering sticks, and he calls to her and says, “Please bring a little water to me in a vessel, and I drink.”
Ama Zarephath ah achen, akhosung kelkot phung agah lhunphat in, meithai khat in thing go ana chom amun amanu koma chun, “Lungset tah in khon khat’a twi themkhat nei hinpe thei dem?” atin ahile,
11 And she goes to bring [it], and he calls to her and says, “Please bring a morsel of bread to me in your hand.”
Amanu chun twi agaso got leh, aman, “Changlhah themkhat jong neihin choi peh in,” ati.
12 And she says, “Your God YHWH lives, I do not have a cake, but the fullness of the hand of meal in a pitcher, and a little oil in a dish; and behold, I am gathering two sticks, and have gone in and prepared it for myself, and for my son, and we have eaten it—and died.”
Ahin amanun jong ajah’a, “Pakai na Pathen mina kihahsel’a kasei ahi, insung’a changlhah hal khatcha jong ka neipoi, belsung’a changbong khut dim khatseh ka neitan, hai sunga thao themcha bou kanei tai, tua thingkang themkhat kachom jong hi hiche changbong hile thao hi ka suhto’a keile ka chapa ding’a ka kan’a, ka nehjou lhon teng ka athi dinga ka gellhah lhon ahitai,” ati.
13 And Elijah says to her, “Do not fear, go, do according to your word, only make a little cake for me there, in the first place, and you have brought [it] out to me; and for you and for your son make [it] last;
Ahinlah Elijah in amanu koma chun, “Lunggim hih in! Na seichu boljengin, ahinla changlhah themkhat kei dingin hinbol masan, chujoutengle aval chu nang le nachapa neh dingin kibol lhon nan nate,” ati.
14 for thus said YHWH, God of Israel: The pitcher of meal is not consumed, and the dish of oil is not lacking, until the day of YHWH’s giving a shower on the face of the ground.”
“Ajeh chu hiche hi Pakai Israel Pathen in asei ahi, belsung’a changbong chun beitih anei louhel ding, haisung’a thaotwi jong chu beitih neilouva um ding, gamsung’a Pakaiyin gotwi ahin juhsah masangsea hitia chu neng jing jeng ding ahi, tin aseiye,” ati.
15 And she goes, and does according to the word of Elijah, and she eats, she and he and her household [for many] days;
Hichun meithainu jong achen Elijah seibang bangin agabol tai, amanu ahin Elijah ahin, chuleh amanu insung mi ahiuvin an chu ni sottah aneuvin ahi.
16 the pitcher of meal was not consumed, and the dish of oil did not lack, according to the word of YHWH that He spoke by the hand of Elijah.
Belsung’a an jong chu abeithei tapon, hai sunga thaotwi jong chu alhasam kha tapoi, Pakaiyin Elijah jah’a aseibang bang in aum tai.
17 And it comes to pass, after these things, the son of the woman, mistress of the house, has been sick, and his sickness is very severe until no breath has been left in him.
Phat chomkhat jouvin hiche numei nu chapa chu ahung dammo tai. Ama dammo chu ahungkhoh cheh cheh jeng tan, achaina in ahung thitan ahi.
18 And she says to Elijah, “What [is this] to me and to you, O man of God? You have come to me to cause my iniquity to be remembered, and to put my son to death!”
Hijou chun meithainun Elijah kom’ah, “Vo Pathen mipa ka chunga hi ipi nabol hitam? Hilaiya hi ka chonset ho Pathen henga phongdoh dia hikoma hunga, kachapa thilosah nahim?” ati.
19 And he says to her, “Give your son to me”; and he takes him out of her bosom, and takes him up to the upper chamber where he is abiding, and lays him on his own bed,
Ahin Elijah in adonbut in, “Nachapa chu neihin pen,” atin, anu pheichung’a akon chun akidop doh’in, indan chung’a ageji na indan a chun adom touvin alupna jalkhun na chun alup sah in ahi.
20 and cries to YHWH and says, “My God YHWH, have You also brought calamity on the widow with whom I am sojourning, to put her son to death?”
Hichun Elijah chun Pakai heng’a ataovin, “Vo Pakai ka Pathen keiman lhunna a kanei ji hiche meithainu chunga hi hamsetna na chuhsah’a, achapa hi nathisah ding hitam?” ati.
21 And he stretches himself out on the boy three times, and calls to YHWH and says, “O YHWH my God, please let the soul of this boy return into his midst”;
Hichun hiche chapangpa chunga chun thumvei alum’in, Pakai kom’ah chun apeng jah jengin, “O Pakai Pathen hiche chapang hinkho hi, hinkile dohsahtei tei jin,” ati.
22 and YHWH listens to the voice of Elijah, and the soul of the boy turns back into his midst, and he lives.
Pakaiyin Elijah taona chu ana ngaipeh in, hiche chapangpa hinkho chu ahin kiledoh sah in ahung hingdoh tan ahi.
23 And Elijah takes the boy, and brings him down from the upper chamber of the house, and gives him to his mother, and Elijah says, “See, your son lives!”
Hichun Elijah’in inchung akonin ahin pomsuh in anu ape in, “Ven nacha hi ahing tai,” ati.
24 And the woman says to Elijah, “Now [by] this I have known that you [are] a man of God, and the word of YHWH in your mouth [is] truth.”
Hijou chun meithainu chun Elijah kom’ah, “Tunvang keiman nangma hi Pathen mi mong mong nahin chuleh Pakaiyin nang’a hin thu asei mong mong’e ti ka hechen tai,” ati.
