< 1 Kings 18 >
1 And it came to pass, after many days, that, the word of Yahweh, came unto Elijah, in the third year, saying, —Go, shew thyself unto Ahab, that I may send rain upon the face of the ground.
Amalalu, ode osodayale gibu hame daha eso agoanega, Hina Gode da Ilaidiama amane sia: i, “Di asili, hina bagade A: iha: bema doaga: ma! Amasea, Na da gibu iasimu.”
2 And Elijah went, to show himself unto Ahab. Now, the famine, was severe in Samaria.
Amaiba: le, Ilaidia da muni asi. Samelia soge ganodini, esoiba: le, ha: i da baligili bagadedafa ba: i.
3 And Ahab had called for Obadiah, who was over his house. Now, Obadiah, was one who revered Yahweh, exceedingly.
Amaiba: le, A:iha: be da hina bagade diasu ouligisu dunu Oubadaiama, ema misa: ne sia: i. (Oubadaia da noga: le Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu dawa: i.
4 And so it came to pass, when Jezebel was cutting off the prophets of Yahweh, that Obadiah took a hundred prophets, and hid them by fifties in caves, and sustained them, with bread and water.
Yesebele da Hina Gode Ea balofede dunu ili gebewane medole legelaloba, Oubadaia da balofede dunu 100 agoane lale, dogoa mogili gilisisu 50 aduna hamone, magufu gelabo aduna ganodini wamoaligimusa: oule asili, ilima ha: i manu amola hano gaguli masu.)
5 So then Ahab said unto Obadiah, Go, and let us pass throughout the land, unto all the fountains of water, and unto all the ravines, peradventure we may find grass, and save alive horse and mule, and not have more of the beasts cut off.
A: iha: be da Oubadaiama amane sia: i, “Ani ahoa: di! Ania da hano bubuga: su amola hano logo huluane soge ganodini ba: la masunu. Ania da Isala: ili dunu ilia hosi amola miule esalomusa: defele gisi hogola masunu. Amabela: ? Ninia ohe afae da hame medole legei ba: ma: bela: ?”
6 So they divided to them the land, to pass through it, —Ahab, went one way, by himself, and, Obadiah, went another way, by himself.
Ela da sia: dalu, ela afae afae hogola masunu soge ilegei. Amalalu, ela da logo higagale asi.
7 And so it was, as Obadiah was on the road, that lo! Elijah, met him, —and he recognised him, and fell upon his face, and said—Now art, thou, my lord Elijah?
Oubadaia da logoga ahoanoba, hedolowane Ilaidia ba: i. E da ea odagi dawa: beba: le, ea midadi gududafa beguduli, amane adole ba: i, “Hina! Amo da dila: ?”
8 And he said to him—I, am! Go, say to thy lord: Here, is, Elijah!
E bu adole i, “Dafawane! Na da Ilaidia wea! Di asili, dia hina bagade ema na da guiguda: esala: ba: ya adoma!”
9 And he said—How have I sinned, —that, thou, art delivering thy servant into the hand of Ahab, to put me to death?
Oubadaia da amane adole i, “Na da adi hamobela: ? Dia da abuliba: le na hina bagade A: iha: be, ea na fane legema: ne logo fodosala: ?
10 By the life of Yahweh thy God, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee, and, when they have said—Nay! he hath taken an oath of the kingdom or the nation, that no one could find thee;
Dia Hina Gode Esala amo Ea Dioba: le na da dafawane ilegele sia: sa. A: iha: be da osobo bagadega fifi asi gala huluane amo ganodini, di hogoi helei. Soge fi ouligisu dunu afae da di da ea soge ganodini hame esala sia: ne iasu ianoba, A:iha: be da amo hina bagade, e da di hamedafa ba: i, amo dafawane ilegele sia: musa: sia: i.
11 and, now, thou, art saying, —Go say to thy lord, Here, is, Elijah;
Amaiba: le, di da abuliba: le nama di da goega: i esala, amane ema sia: na masa: ne sia: bela: ?
12 so shall it come to pass, as soon as, I, go from thee, that, the spirit of Yahweh, shall carry thee away—whither I know not, and so, when I go in to tell Ahab, and he cannot find thee, then will he slay me, —and yet, thy servant, hath revered Yahweh, from my youth.
Na da ahoasea, amola Hina Gode Ea A: silibu da di eno hame dawa: sogega oule ahoasea, na da adi hamoma: bela: ? Amane hamosea, na da A: iha: bema, di da goega: i esala amo adole, e da di goega: i esalebe hame ba: sea, na medole legemu. Di bu dawa: ma! Na goi fonobahadiga ganini, Hina Godema noga: le nodone sia: ne gadosu dawa: i.
13 Was it not told my lord, what I did when Jezebel was slaying the prophets of Yahweh, —how I hid, of the prophets of Yahweh, a hundred men—by fifties—in caves, and sustained them with bread and water?
Yesebele da Hina Gode Ea balofede dunu ili gebewane medole legelaloba, na da balofede dunu 100 agoane lale, dogoa mogili gilisisu idi 50 aduna hamone, magufu gelabo aduna ganodini wamoaligimusa: oule asili, ilima ha: i manu amola hano gaguli masu. Amo di da hame nabibala: ?
14 and yet, now, thou, art saying, Go, tell thy lord—Here, is, Elijah; and so he will slay me!
Amaiba: le, di da abuli na hina bagadema, di da goega: i esala: ba: ya adoma: ne, nama sia: sala: ? E da na medole legemu!”
15 Then said Elijah—By the life of Yahweh of hosts, before whom I stand, to-day, will I show myself unto him.
Ilaidia da bu adole i, “Na da Hina Gode Bagadedafa Esala amo Ea hawa: hamonana. Amola na da Ea Dioba: le dafawane ilegele sia: sa. Na da wali esoga, hina bagadema odagi olemu.”
16 So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him, —and, Ahab, went to meet, Elijah.
Amaiba: le, Oubadaia da hina bagade A: iha: bema asili, ema Ilaidia da esala: ba: ya adoi. Amalu, A:iha: be da Ilaidia gousa: musa: asi.
17 And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Now, art, thou, troubling Israel?
A: iha: be da Ilaidia ba: beba: le, amane sia: i, “Agoea esalebe! Di da Isala: ili soge ganodini bidi hamosu dunu oda ilia hamosu bagadewane baligisa.”
18 And he said—I have not troubled Israel, but, thou and the house of thy father, —in that ye have forsaken the commandments of Yahweh, and followed Baal.
Ilaidia da bu adole i, “Na da bidi hamosu dunudafa hame. Be di amola dia ada alia da bidi hamosu dunu. Di da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i amo mae nabawane hamone, ogogole ‘gode’ Ba: ile agoaila hahamoi amoma nodone sia: ne gadolala.
19 Now, therefore, send, gather unto me all Israel, unto Mount Carmel, —and the prophets of Baal, four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the Sacred Stem, four hundred, who do eat at the table of Jezebel.
Waha Isala: ili dunu huluane na gousa: musa: , Gamele Goumi amoga misa: ne sia: ma. Ilia da Ba: ile balofede dunu 450 agoane amola ogogole uda ‘gode’ Asila ea balofede dunu 400 agoane amo da hina bagade uda Yesebele ea fuligala: be, amo huluane oule misa.”
20 So Ahab sent among all the sons of Israel, —and gathered the prophets unto Mount Carmel.
Amaiba: le, A:iha: be da Isala: ili dunu huluane amola Ba: ile balofede dunu huluane, Gamele Goumia gilisima: ne sia: i.
21 And Elijah drew near unto all the people, and said—How long are ye limping on the two divided opinions? If, Yahweh, be GOD, follow, him, but, if, Baal, follow, him. But the people answered him, not a word.
Ilaidia da dunu huluanema asili, amane sia: i, “Dilia da habo wali seda ‘gode’ aduna elama fa: no bobogemusa: dadawa: loma: bela: ? Dilia da Hina Gode da Godedafa dawa: sea, Ema nodone sia: ne gadoma! Be dilia da Ba: ile da Godedafa dawa: sea, ema nodone sia: ne gadoma!” Be Isala: ili dunu da sia: afae hamedafa sia: i.
22 Then said Elijah unto the people—I, am left, Yahweh’s, only, prophet, —but, the prophets of Baal, are four hundred and fifty men.
Amalalu, Ilaidia da amane sia: i, “Na fawane da Hina Gode Ea balofede dunudafa esala. Be Ba: ile ea balofede dunu da 450 agoane esala.
23 Let there be given us, therefore, two bullocks, and let them choose for themselves one bullock, and cut it in pieces, and lay it upon the wood, but, fire, shall they not put, —then, I, will make ready the other bullock, and place upon the wood, but, fire, will I not put.
Bulamagau gawali aduna gaguli misa! Ba: ile balofede dunu ilia da afae lale, medole, dasega: le, lalu habei da: iya ligisima. Be lalu mae ulagima. Na da bulamagau eno amoga ilia hamoi amo defele hamomu.
24 Then shall ye call on the name of your god, and, I, will call on the name of Yahweh, and it shall be, the God that respondeth by fire, he, is GOD. And all the people responded—Well spoken!
Amalu, Ba: ile balofede dunu da ilia ‘gode’ma sia: ne gadoma: ma. Amola na da Hina Godema sia: ne gadomu. Amalu, nowa ea hahamoi lalu nene gala: be ba: sea, amo ilia ‘gode’ da Godedafa esalebe dawa: mu.” Dunu huluane da amo hamomu hou hahawane nababeba: le, wele sia: i.
25 Then said Elijah to the prophets of Baal—Choose for yourselves one bullock, and make ye ready, first, for, ye, are many, —and call ye on the name of your god, but, fire, shall ye not put.
Ilaidia da Ba: ile balofede dunuma amane sia: i, “Dilia da dunu bagohameba: le, dili hidadea, bulamagau gawali lale, hahamoma. Dilia ‘gode’ma sia: ne gadoma, be lalu habei mae ulagisima.”
26 So they took the bullock which was given them, and made ready, and called on the name of Baal—from the morning even until the noon, saying—O Baal! answer us. But them was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped about by the altar which had been made.
Ilia da bulamagau gawali amo da ilima gaguli misi, amo lale hahamoi. Amalu, Ba: ilema sia: ne gadolalobawane, esomogoa doaga: i. Ilia da amane wele sia: i, “Ba: ile! Ba: ile! Ninia sia: ne gadobe nabima: i!” Amola, ilia da oloda ilia gagili, amo sisiga: le, gagafodudalu. Be amomane, Ba: ile da ilima dabe hame adole i.
27 And it came to pass, at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said—Cry with a loud voice, for, a god, he is, either he hath, a meditation, or an occasion to retire, or he hath, a journey, —peradventure, he, sleepeth, and must be awaked.
Esomogoadafa, Ilaidia da iliba: le lalasogole oufesega: nu. E amane sia: i, “Bu ha: giwane sia: ne gadoma! E da ‘gode’! E da olobolala ganumu o baeya sowana ganumu. O e da logoba: le asi ganumu. O e da golai diala ganumu. Amo didilisima!”
28 And they cried, with a loud voice, and cut themselves, after their custom, with swords, and with lances, —until the blood gushed out upon them.
Amaiba: le, balofede dunu da bu ha: giwane sia: ne gadole amola ilia hou defele, ili gobele gobihei amola nusi amoga fofa: ginanobawane, maga: me da a: idafia: i.
29 And so it was, when noon was passed, that although they prophesied until the offering up of the evening gift, yet was there no voice nor any that answered, nor any that hearkened.
Ilia da dadoula sisiga: sa lafia: lalobawane, baloga doaga: i. Be dabe adole iasu sia: da afae hame nabi.
30 Then said Elijah unto all the people: Draw near unto, me. And all the people drew near unto, him. Then repaired he the broken-down altar of Yahweh; yea Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, —
Amalalu, Ilaidia da dunu huluanema amane sia: i, “Nama gadenena misa.” Ilia da Ilaidiama gilisila misi. E da Hina Gode Ea oloda mugului, amo bu hahamoi.
31 unto whom the word of Yahweh came, saying—Israel, shall be thy name;
E da gele fagoyale gala lai. Amo gele afae afae da Ya: igobe (Hina Gode da ema Isala: ili dio asuli) amo ea mano afae afae dawa: ma: ne, lai.
32 and built, with the stones, an altar, in the name of Yahweh, —and he made a trench, as large as would contain two measures of seed, round about the altar;
Amo gelega, e da Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu oloda bu hahamoi. Oloda sisiga: le, e da hano logo amoga hano soga: sali amo nabai defei da 15 lida.
33 and he put in order the wood, —and cut in pieces the bullock, and laid upon the wood. Then said he—Fill four pitchers with water, and pour out upon the ascending-sacrifice, and upon the wood. And they did so.
Amalu, e da oloda da: iya, lalu habei ligisili, bulamagau dasega: le, fofonobone dadamuni ligisi. E amane sia: i, “Dilia da osoboga hamoi ofodo bagade biyaduyale amoga hano dili, amo bulamagau gobele salimu amo da: iya amola lalu habei da: iya sogaga: la: ma.” Ilia da amo defele hamoi.
34 And he said—Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he said—Do it the third time. And they did it the third time.
E amane sia: i, “Bu hamoma!” Ilia da amane hamoi. E amane sia: i, “Bu hamoma!” Amola ilia da amane hamoi.
35 And the water ran round about the altar, —moreover also, the trench, filled he with water.
Hano da gudu sa: ili, oloda sisiga: le, hano logo nabalesi.
36 And it came to pass, at the time of the offering of the gift, that Elijah the prophet drew near, and said, O Yahweh, God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel! To-day, let it be known—That, thou, art God in Israel, and that, I, am thy servant, —and that, by thy word, have I done all these things.
37 Answer me, O Yahweh! answer me, That this people may know, that, thou—Yahweh, art GOD, —so shalt, thou thyself, have turned their heart back again.
Baloga, ilia gobele salasu hamoma: ne ilegebe, balofede Ilaidia da oloda amoga asili, amane sia: ne gadoi, “Hina Gode! A: ibalaha: me amola Aisage amola Ya: igobe ilia Gode! Di da Isala: ili Godedafa, amola na da Dia hawa: hamosu dunu, amola na wali hamoi da Dia hamoma: ne sia: beba: le hamoi, Isala: ili dunu da amo huluane dafawaneyale dawa: ma: ne, Dia na adole ba: su sia: ne gadosu amoma dabe adole ima. Hina Gode! Nama bu adole ima. Isala: ili dunu da Di, Hina Gode, da Godedafa amola Di da ili Dima bu hiougilala, amo ilia da dawa: ma: ne, na sia: ne gadosu amo dabe adole ima.”
38 Then fell fire from Yahweh, and consumed the ascending-sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, —even the water that was in the trench, it licked up.
Hina Gode da lalu gudu sanasi. Lalu da gobele salasu bulamagau amola lalu habei amola gele amola osobo huluane nene dagoi. Amola hano amo hano logo ganodini dialu amo huluane hafoga: i dagoi ba: i.
39 And, when all the people saw it, they fell upon their faces, —and said, Yahweh, he, is GOD, Yahweh, he, is GOD.
Dunu huluane da amo hou ba: beba: le, ilisu osoba gala: la sa: i. Ilia amane wele sia: i, “Hina Gode da Godedafa! Hina Gode Hisu da Godedafa!”
40 And Elijah said unto them—Seize ye the prophets of Baal—let not, a man, of them escape. So they seized them. And Elijah took them down unto the ravine of Kishon, and slaughtered them there.
Ilaidia da amane hamoma: ne sia: i, “Ba: ile balofede dunu gagulaliligima! Dunu afae da maedafa hobeama: ma!” Isala: ili dunu da Ba: ile balofede dunu huluane gagulaliligi. Amola Ilaidia da ili oule, Gaisione Hanoga sa: ili, ili huluane fane lelegei.
41 Then said Elijah unto Ahab, Go up, eat and drink, —for there is a sound of a downpour of rain.
Amalalu, Ilaidia da hina bagade A: iha: bema amane sia: i, “Waha ha: i namasa! Na da gibu bagade olamabe naba!”
42 So Ahab went up, to eat and to drink, —but, Elijah, went up to the top of Carmel, and bowed himself to the earth, and put his face between his knees.
A: iha: be da ha: i na ahoanoba, Ilaidia da Gamele Goumi da: iya heda: le, beguduli, osoboga muguni adoba dialuma bugi.
43 Then said he unto his young man—Go up, I pray thee, and look about in the direction of the sea. So he went up, and looked about, and said—There is, nothing whatever. Then said he—Go again, seven times.
E da ea hawa: hamosu dunuma amane sia: i, “Di da asili, hano wayabo bagade amoga ba: le gama!” Ea hawa: hamosu dunu da amo ba: la asili, bu misini, amane sia: i, “Na da liligi hamedafa ba: i.” Ilaidia da ema fesuale agoane ba: la afufuma: ne sia: i.
44 And it came to pass, at the seventh time, that he said, Lo! a little cloud, like a man’s hand coming up from the sea. Then he said—Go up, say unto Ahab—Harness, and get thee down, lest the rain shut thee in.
E da afufulala fesu amoga ba: la asi, bu misini, amane sia: i, “Na da mobi fonobahadi, dunu ea lobo agoai, amo baligili hame, be agoai fawane hano wayabo gudunini gado heda: lebe ba: i.” Ilaidia da ea hawa: hamosu dunuma amane sia: i, “hina bagade A: iha: bema asili, ea masunu logo gibuga ga: sa: besa: le, ea ‘sa: liode’ lale, amo da: iya fila heda: le, hi diasua hedolo masa: ne sia: ma.”
45 And it came to pass, meanwhile, that, the heavens, had enshrouded themselves with clouds and wind, and there came a great rain, and Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel;
Fonobahadi aligili, mu da mobiga gasili gala: i ba: i, amola fo da muni misi amola gibu bagade da muni sa: i. A: iha: be da ea ‘sa: liode’ da: iya fila heda: le, Yeseliele moilai bai bagadega buhagi.
46 but, the hand of Yahweh, came upon Elijah, so he girded his loins, —and ran before Ahab, until thou enterest Jezreel.
Hina Bagade Gode Ea gasa da misini, Ilaidiama doaga: i. Ilaidia da ea abula hina: bulu ga: sua ha: gidafa idiniginanu, A:iha: be fa: nonesilalu, ea bisili hehenaiya ahoana, Yeseliele amoma doaga: i.
