< 1 Kings 17 >
1 And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, "As Jehovah, the God of Israel, lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, except by 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 Jehovah came to him, saying,
परमप्रभुको वचन एलियाकहाँ आयो,
3 "Go away from here, turn eastward, and hide yourself by the Wadi Cherith, that is near the Jordan.
“यस ठाउँलाई छाडेर पूर्वतिर जा । यर्दनको पूर्वमा पर्ने करीत खोलामा लुकेर बस् ।
4 And it shall be that you will drink from the wadi. I have commanded the ravens to feed you there."
तैँले त्यही खोलाबाट पानी पिउने छस्, र मैले तँलाई खुवाउन कागहरूलाइ आज्ञा गरेको छु ।”
5 So he went and did according to the word of Jehovah; for he went and lived by the Wadi Cherith, that is near 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 meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening. And he drank from the wadi.
कागहरूले तिनलाई बिहान र बेलुका रोटी र मासु ल्याए, अनि तिनले खोलाबाट पानी पिए ।
7 And it happened after a while that the wadi dried up, because there was no rain in the land.
तर देशमा पानी नपरेकोले केही समय बितेपछि खोला सुक्यो ।
8 The word of Jehovah came to him, saying,
परमप्रभुको वचन तिनीकहाँ आयो,
9 "Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and stay there. Look, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you."
“उठेर सीदोनको सारपातमा जा, र त्यही बस् । हेर्, तेरो खानाको बन्दोवस्त मिलाउन मैले त्यहाँ एउटी विधवालाई आज्ञा दिएको छु ।”
10 So he got up and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, look, a widow was there gathering wood. And he called to her, and said, "Please bring me a little water in a pitcher, 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 was going to get it, he called to her, and said, "Please bring me a piece of bread in your hand."
उनी पानी लिन जाँदै गर्दा तिनले उनलाई भने, “तपाईंको हातमा रोटीको टुक्रा पनि ल्याइदिनुहोस् ।”
12 She said, "As Jehovah your God lives, I do not have anything baked, except a handful of flour in a jar, and a little oil in a jug. Look, I am gathering a couple of sticks, that I may go in and bake it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and 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 to her, "Do not be afraid. Go and do as you have said. But make me of it a little cake first, and bring it out to me, and afterward make some for yourself and for your son.
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 says Jehovah, the God of Israel, 'The jar of flour shall not empty, neither shall the jug of oil be empty, until the day that Jehovah sends rain on the surface of the land.'"
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 saying of Elijah. And she, and he, and her household, ate for a long time.
त्यसैले उनले एलियाले भनेझैँ गरिन् । उनी र एलियालगायत उनको घरानाले धेरै दिनसम्म खाए ।
16 The jar of flour did not empty, neither did the jug of oil become empty, according to the word of Jehovah, which he spoke by Elijah.
परमप्रभुले एलियाद्वारा बोल्नुभएको वचनले भनेझैँ पिठोको भाँडो रित्तो भएन, न त ढुङ्ग्रोबाट तेल आउन रोकियो ।
17 It happened after these things, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick. And his illness was so severe that 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 to Elijah, "What do we have in common, O man of God? You have come to me to bring my sin to memory, and to kill 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 to her, "Give me your son." And he took him out of her lap and carried him up into the room where he stayed, and laid him on 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 He cried to Jehovah, and said, "Jehovah my God, have you also brought disaster on the widow with whom I sojourn, by killing 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 upon the child three times, and called out to Jehovah, and said, "Jehovah my God, please let this child's soul come into him again."
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 Jehovah listened to the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, 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 room into the house and gave him to his mother. And Elijah said, "See, your son lives."
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 I know that you are a man of God and that the word of Jehovah in your mouth is the truth."
ती स्त्रीले एलियालाई भनिन्, “अब मलाई थाहा भयो, कि तपाईं परमेश्वरका जन हुनुहुँदोरहेछ र तपाईंको बोलीमा भएको परमप्रभुको वचन तपाईंको मुखमा साँचो रहेछ ।”
