1 Kings 17
1 Elijah was [a prophet] who lived in Tishbe [town] in [the] Gilead [region]. One day he [went to] King Ahab and said to him, “Yahweh is the God whom we Israelis [worship] and the God whom I worship and serve. Just as certainly as Yahweh lives, there will be no dew or rain for the next few years, if I do not command rain to fall!”
OLELO aku la hoi o Elia ka Tiseba no ko Gileada, ia Ahaba, Ma ke oia ana o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela imua ona e ku nei au, aole auanei he ua, aole hoi he hau i keia mau makahiki, ma ka'u olelo wale no.
2 Then Yahweh said to Elijah,
Hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova ia ia, i ka i ana mai,
3 “[Because you have made the king angry with you, escape from the king and, ] go to the east, to the Kerith Brook, east of where it flows into the Jordan [River].
E hele oe mai keia wahi aku, a huli hikina ae, a e pee aku ma ke kahawai Kerita mamua o Ioredane.
4 You will be able to drink water from the brook, and [you will be able to eat what] the crows [bring to you, because] I have commanded them to bring food to you.”
Eia hoi keia, e inu oe i ko ke kahawai; a ua kauoha ae nei au i na manukoraka e hanai ia oe ilaila.
5 So Elijah did what Yahweh commanded him to do. He went and camped alongside Kerith Brook.
Hele aku la hoi oia a hana e like me ka olelo a Iehova; no ka mea, ua hele ia a noho ma ke kahawai Kerita mamua o Ioredane.
6 Crows bought bread and meat to him every morning and every evening, and he drank [water] from the brook.
A lawe mai na manukoraka i ka berena a me ka io ia ia i kakahiaka, a i ka berena a me ka io i ke ahiahi; a inu ae la hoi oia i ko ke kahawai.
7 But after a while, the water in the brook dried up, because rain did not fall anywhere in the land.
Eia kekahi, i ka hala ana'e o na la, maloo iho la ke kahawai, no ka mea, aohe ua ma ka aina.
8 Then Yahweh said to Elijah,
A hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova ia ia, i ka i ana mai,
9 “Go and live in Zarephath [village], near Sidon [city]. There is a widow there who will give you food to eat. I have [already] told her what to do about that.”
E ku ae, a hele oe i Sarepeta no Sidona, a e noho malaila: eia hoi, ua kauoha ae nei au i kahi wahine kanemake malaila e hanai ia oe.
10 So [Elijah did what God said]. He went to Zarephath. As he arrived at the gates of the village, he saw a widow who was gathering sticks. He said to her, “Would you please bring me a cup of water?”
Ku ae la hoi, a hele ia i Sarepeta; a hiki i ka puka o ke kulanakauhale, aia hoi, malaila ka wahine kanemake e ohi ana i na lala laau; a kahea aku oia i ka wahine, i aku la, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe e lawe mai i wahi wai uuku maloko o ka ipu, e inu au.
11 While she was going to get it, he called out to her, “Bring me a piece of bread, too!”
A i kona hele ana e lawe mai, kahea aku la oia ia ia, i aku la, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe e lawe mai na'u i kau wahi berena uuku maloko o kou lima.
12 But she replied, “Your God knows that what I am telling you is true: I do not have even one piece of bread in my house. I have only a handful of flour in a jar, and a little [olive] oil in a jug. I was gathering a few sticks to use these to [make a fire and] cook one more meal, and then after my son and I eat that, we will die [from hunger].”
I mai la ka wahine, Ma ke ola ana o Iehova o kou Akua, aole o'u popo palaoa, hookahi wale no piha o ka lima o ka palaoa wali ole, maloko o ka barela, a he wahi aila uuku iloko o kahi omole: eia hoi, e ohi ana au i na lala laau elua e hele au iloko, a e hoomoa'e ia na maua me kuu keiki, e ai maua, a make.
13 But Elijah said to her, “Do not be worried! Go home and do what you said that you were going to do. But first, bake me a little loaf of bread and bring it to me. After you do that, take what is left and prepare some food for you and your son.
I aku la o Elia ia ia, Mai makau oe; aka, e hele a e hana oe e like me kau olelo; aka, e hana mua oe i wahi popo palaoa uuku na'u, a e lawe mai i o'u nei, a mamuli e hana oe na olua me kau keiki.
14 [I know that you will be able to do that, ] because Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], says this: ‘There will always be plenty of flour and [olive] oil left in your containers, until the time when I send rain again [and the crops grow again]!’”
No ka mea, ko i mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, Aole e emi iho ka barela palaoa wali ole, aole hoi e pau ae ka omole aila a hiki i ka la e haawi mai ai o Iehova i ka ua ma ka ili o ka honua.
15 So the woman did exactly what Elijah told her to do. And she and her son and Elijah had enough food every day,
Hele ae la hoi oia a hana e like me ka olelo a Elia; a ai iho la ko kona hale i na la he nui.
16 because the flour in the jar was never finished, and the jug of oil was never empty. That happened just like Yahweh had told Elijah that it would happen.
Aole i emi iho ka barela palaoa wali ole, aole hoi i pau ae ka omole aila, e like me ka olelo a Iehova ana i olelo mai ai ma ka lima o Elia.
17 Some time later, the woman’s son became sick. He continued to get worse, and finally he died.
Eia kekahi mahope mai o ia mau mea, mai iho la ke keiki a ka wahine ka mea hale, a nui ae la kona mai, aole koe ka hanu iloko ona.
18 So the woman went to Elijah and said to him, “You are a prophet; so why have you done this to me? Have you come here to punish me for my sins by causing my son to die?”
Olelo mai la ka wahine ia Elia, Heaha ko kaua, e ke kanaka o ke Akua? Ua hele mai nei anei oe io'u nei e hoakaka mai i ko'u hewa, a e pepehi mai hoi i ka'u keiki?
19 But Elijah replied, “Give your son to me.” So she gave her son to him, and he took the boy’s [body] from her and carried it up [the steps] to the room where he stayed. He laid the boy’s [body] on his bed.
I aku la oia i ka wahine, E haawi mai i kau keiki ia'u. Lawe ae la oia ia ia mai ko ka wahine poli ae, a hali ae la oia ia ia iluna i kahi keena oluna, i kahi e noho ai oia, a hoomoe iho la ia ia ma kona wahi moe iho;
20 Then Elijah cried out to Yahweh, “O Yahweh my God, this widow [has kindly allowed] me to stay in her home. So why have you brought this tragedy to her and caused her son to die?” [RHQ]
A kahea aku la oia ia Iehova, i aku la hoi, E Iehova ko'u Akua, ua lawe mai nei anei oe i ka hewa maluna o ka wahinekanemake, me ia e noho iki ana au, i ka pepehi ana mai i kana keiki?
21 Then Elijah stretched himself on top of the boy’s [body] and called out to Yahweh saying, “Yahweh my God, please allow this boy to become alive again!” He did this three times.
Hoopalaha ae la oia maluna o ke keiki i na wa ekolu, a kahea aku la ia Iehova, i aku la hoi, E Iehova ko'u Akua, ke pule aku nei au ia oe, e hoi hou mai ka uhane o keia keiki iloko ona.
22 Yahweh heard what Elijah prayed, and [he caused] the boy [to] become alive again [DOU].
Hoolohe mai la hoi o Iehova i ka leo o Elia, a hoi hou mai la ka uhane o ke keiki iloko ona, a ola ae la ia.
23 Elijah carried the boy down [the steps] and gave him to his mother. He said, “Look, your son is alive!”
Lalau iho la o Elia i ke keiki, a lawe iho mai loko iho o ko luna keena iloko o ka hale, a haawi ae la ia ia i kona makuwahine; i aku la hoi o Elia, E ike hoi, ke ola nei kau keiki.
24 The woman said to Elijah, “Now I know [for certain] that you are a prophet and that the words that you speak are truly from Yahweh!”
Olelo mai la ka wahine ia Elia, Ano, ma keia i ike ai au, he kanaka no ke Akua oe, a o ka olelo a Iehova ma kou waha he oiaio.
