1 Kings 19
1 And he told Ahab to Jezebel all that he had done Elijah and all that he had killed all the prophets with the sword.
Na rĩrĩ, Ahabu akĩĩra Jezebeli ũrĩa wothe Elija eekĩte, o na ũrĩa ooragithĩtie anabii othe a Baali na rũhiũ rwa njora.
2 And she sent Jezebel a messenger to Elijah saying thus may they do! [the] gods and thus may they add! if about this time tomorrow I will make life your like [the] life of one from them.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jezebeli agĩtũmĩra Elija mũndũ akamwĩre atĩrĩ, “Ngai ciakwa iroothũũra o na ikĩrĩrĩrie gũthũũra, angĩkorwo ihinda ta rĩrĩ rũciũ, ndigatũma muoyo waku ũhaane ta wa ũmwe wa anabii acio ũrooragire.”
3 And he saw and he arose and he went to life his and he came Beer Sheba which [belongs] to Judah and he left servant his there.
Elija agĩĩtigĩra akĩũra nĩguo ahonokie muoyo wake. Aakinya Birishiba kũu Juda, agĩtiga ndungata yake kuo,
4 And he he went in the wilderness a journey of a day and he came and he sat under a broom plant (one *Q(k)*) and he asked self his to die and he said - enough now O Yahweh take life my for not [am] good I more than ancestors my.
nowe mwene, agĩthiĩ rũgendo rwa mũthenya ũmwe na kũu werũ-inĩ. Agĩkinya mũtĩ-inĩ wa mwethia, agĩikara thĩ kĩĩruru-inĩ kĩaguo, akĩhooya akue. Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Jehova, nĩnyonete mathĩĩna ma kũnjigana. Oya muoyo wakwa; niĩ ndirĩ mwega gũkĩra maithe makwa ma tene.”
5 And he lay down and he slept under a broom plant one and there! this an angel [was] touching him and he said to him arise eat.
Agĩkoma toro hau rungu rwa mũtĩ ũcio. O rĩmwe mũraika akĩmũhutia, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra ũrĩe.”
6 And he looked and there! [was] [the] place of head his a bread cake of hot coals and a jug of water and he ate and he drank and he returned and he lay down.
Akĩĩhũgũra, na hau mũtwe-inĩ wake haarĩ na mũgate wahĩhĩtio na makara mahiũ, na nĩ haarĩ na ndigithũ yarĩ na maaĩ. Akĩrĩa na akĩnyua, agĩcooka agĩkoma rĩngĩ.
7 And he returned [the] angel of Yahweh - a second [time] and he touched him and he said arise eat for [is too] great for you the journey.
Mũraika ũcio wa Jehova akĩmũkora hĩndĩ ya keerĩ, akĩmũhutia, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra ũrĩe nĩgũkorwo rũgendo rũrĩa rũrĩ mbere yaku nĩ rũraihu mũno.”
8 And he arose and he ate and he drank and he went in [the] strength of - the food that forty day[s] and forty night[s] to [the] mountain of God Horeb.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩũkĩra akĩrĩa na akĩnyua. Akĩgĩa na hinya nĩ ũndũ wa irio icio, agĩthiĩ matukũ mĩrongo ĩna, mũthenya na ũtukũ, nginya agĩkinya Horebu, kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Ngai.
9 And he went there into the cave and he spent [the] night there and there! [the] word of Yahweh [was] to him and he said to him what? [is] to you here O Elijah.
Kũu agĩthiĩ agĩtoonya ngurunga, akĩraara ho. Nakĩo kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩkĩmũkinyĩra, akĩũrio atĩrĩ, “Elija, ũreka atĩa haha?”
10 And he said certainly I have been zealous for Yahweh - [the] God of hosts for they have forsaken covenant your [the] people of Israel altars your they have torn down and prophets your they have killed with the sword and I am left I to alone me and they have sought life my to take away it.
Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ngoretwo ndĩ na kĩyo kĩnene nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe. Andũ a Isiraeli nao nĩmaregete kĩrĩkanĩro gĩaku, makamomora igongona ciaku, na makooraga anabii aku na rũhiũ rwa njora. No niĩ nyiki ndigarĩte, na rĩu o na niĩ nĩmarageria kũnjũraga.”
11 And he said go out and you will stand on the mountain before Yahweh and there! Yahweh [was] passing by and a wind great and strong [was] tearing mountains and breaking rocks before Yahweh not [was] in the wind Yahweh and [was] after the wind an earthquake not [was] in the earthquake Yahweh.
Nake Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Uma ũthiĩ ũrũgame kĩrĩma-inĩ mbere ya Jehova, nĩgũkorwo Jehova akiriĩ kũhĩtũkĩra ho.” Hĩndĩ ĩyo rũhuho rũnene rwa hinya rũgĩatũranga irĩma na rũgĩthethera mahiga mbere ya Jehova, no Jehova ndaarĩ rũhuho-inĩ rũu. Thuutha wa rũhuho gũkĩgĩa gĩthingithia, no Jehova ndaarĩ gĩthingithia-inĩ kĩu.
12 And [was] after the earthquake a fire not [was] in the fire Yahweh and [was] after the fire a sound of a whisper soft.
Thuutha wa gĩthingithia gũgĩũka mwaki, no Jehova ndaarĩ mwaki-inĩ ũcio, na thuutha wa mwaki ũcio gũgĩũka mũgambo mũceke, mũhooreru.
13 And it was - when heard Elijah and he wrapped face his in cloak his and he went out and he stood [the] entrance of the cave and there! [was] to him a voice and it said what? [is] to you here O Elijah.
Rĩrĩa Elija aiguire mũgambo ũcio, akĩguucia nguo yake akĩhumbĩra ũthiũ, na akiuma akĩrũgama mũromo-inĩ wa ngurunga. Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũgambo ũkĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Elija, ũreka atĩa haha?”
14 And he said certainly I have been zealous for Yahweh - [the] God of hosts for they have forsaken covenant your [the] people of Israel altars your they have torn down and prophets your they have killed with the sword and I am left I to alone me and they have sought life my to take away it.
Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ngoretwo ndĩ na kĩyo kĩnene nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe. Andũ a Isiraeli nao nĩmaregete kĩrĩkanĩro gĩaku, makamomora igongona ciaku, na makooraga anabii aku na rũhiũ rwa njora. No niĩ nyiki ndigarĩte, na rĩu o na niĩ nĩmarageria kũnjũraga.”
15 And he said Yahweh to him go go back to way your [the] wilderness of towards Damascus and you will go and you will anoint Hazael to king over Aram.
Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra ũcookere o njĩra ĩrĩa wokĩire, ũthiĩ nginya Werũ wa Dameski. Wakinya kuo-rĩ, ũitĩrĩrie Hazaeli maguta atuĩke mũthamaki wa Suriata.
16 And Jehu [the] son of Nimshi you will anoint to king over Israel and Elisha [the] son of Shaphat from Abel Meholah you will anoint to prophet in place of you.
Ũcooke ũitĩrĩrie Jehu mũrũ wa Nimushi maguta atuĩke mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, na ũitĩrĩrie Elisha mũrũ wa Shafatu wa kuuma Abeli-Mehola maguta nĩguo atuĩke mũnabii ithenya rĩaku.
17 And it will be the [one who] escapes from [the] sword of Hazael he will put to death Jehu and the [one who] escapes from [the] sword of Jehu he will put to death Elisha.
Jehu nĩakooraga ũrĩa wothe ũkaahonoka rũhiũ rwa njora rwa Hazaeli, nake Elisha nĩakooraga ũrĩa wothe ũkaahonoka rũhiũ rwa njora rwa Jehu.
18 And I will leave among Israel seven thousand all the knees which not they have bowed down to Baal and every mouth which not it has kissed it.
Na rĩrĩ, nĩndĩtigĩirie ngiri mũgwanja thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, othe arĩa matarĩ maaturĩria Baali ndu, na matarĩ maamĩmumunya.”
19 And he went from there and he found Elisha [the] son of Shaphat and he [was] plowing two [plus] ten pairs [were] before him and he [was] with two [plus] the ten and he passed on Elijah to him and he threw cloak his to him.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Elija akiuma kũu, agĩthiĩ agĩkora Elisha mũrũ wa Shafatu. Aaciimbaga na ndegwa ikũmi na igĩrĩ ciohanĩtio na macooki igĩrĩ igĩrĩ, nowe aatwarithagia icooki rĩa ikũmi na meerĩ. Elija agĩthiĩ harĩ we na akĩmũikĩria nguo yake ya igũrũ.
20 And he left the ox[en] and he ran after Elijah and he said I want to kiss please father my and mother my and I will go after you and he said to him go turn back for what? have I done to you.
Nake Elisha agĩtiganĩria ndegwa ciake akĩrũmĩrĩra Elija. Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Njĩtĩkĩria ngoigĩre baba na maitũ ũhoro, njooke njũke tũthiĩ nawe.” Nake Elija akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Cooka, kaĩ arĩ atĩa ndagwĩka?”
21 And he turned back from after him and he took [the] pair of the ox[en] and he sacrificed it and with [the] equipment of the ox[en] he cooked them the flesh and he gave [it] to the people and they ate and he arose and he went after Elijah and he served him.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Elisha akĩmũtiga, agĩcooka. Akĩoya ndegwa icio ciake cia macooki, agĩcithĩnja. Agĩakia mwaki na mĩraũ, akĩruga nyama, agĩcihe andũ makĩrĩa. Thuutha ũcio akiumagara, akĩrũmĩrĩra Elija, agĩtuĩka mũteithia wake.
