1 Kings 17
1 And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, "As YHWH, the God of Israel, lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, except by 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 came to him, saying,
Hijou chun Pakaiyin Elijah kom ah hitin ahin sei tai,
3 "Go away from here, turn eastward, and hide yourself by the Wadi Cherith, that is near the Jordan.
“Hiche mun hi dalhan lang, nisolam jonin Jordan luigal niso lam, Kerith vadung koma khun gakiseltan,
4 And it shall be that you will drink from the wadi. I have commanded the ravens to feed 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 So he went and did according to the word of YHWH; for he went and lived by the Wadi Cherith, that is near the Jordan.
Elijah chun Pakaiyin aseipeh bang bangin abol in, Jordan solang Kerith vadung pang’a chun apansa tan ahi.
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.
Va-ah techun jingkah nilhah in anneh ding chang lhah le sa ahin pohpeh jin chuleh vacha twi chu adonjin ahi.
7 And it happened after a while that the wadi dried up, because there was 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 The word of YHWH came to him, saying,
Hijou chun Pakaiyin Elijah kom’a thu hitin ahin seiye,
9 "Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and stay there. Look, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you."
“Nangma chen lang Sidon khopi kom’a Zarephath khoa ga che tan,” ati.
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."
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 as she was going to get it, he called to her, and said, "Please bring me a piece of bread in your hand."
Amanu chun twi agaso got leh, aman, “Changlhah themkhat jong neihin choi peh in,” ati.
12 She said, "As YHWH 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."
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 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.
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 says YHWH, the God of Israel, 'The jar of flour shall not empty, neither shall the jug of oil be empty, until the day that YHWH sends rain on the surface of the land.'"
“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 went and did according to the saying of Elijah. And she, and he, and her household, ate for a long time.
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 jar of flour did not empty, neither did the jug of oil become empty, according to the word of YHWH, which he spoke by 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 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.
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 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."
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 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.
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 He cried to YHWH, and said, "YHWH my God, have you also brought disaster on the widow with whom I sojourn, by killing her son?"
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 stretched himself upon the child three times, and called out to YHWH, and said, "YHWH my God, please let this child's soul come into him again."
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 YHWH listened to the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.
Pakaiyin Elijah taona chu ana ngaipeh in, hiche chapangpa hinkho chu ahin kiledoh sah in ahung hingdoh tan ahi.
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."
Hichun Elijah’in inchung akonin ahin pomsuh in anu ape in, “Ven nacha hi ahing tai,” ati.
24 And the woman said to Elijah, "Now I know that you are a man of God and that the word of YHWH in your mouth is the 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.
