1 Kings 17
1 Elijah the Tishbite, from Tishbe in Gilead, said to Ahab, “As Yahweh, the God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, there will not be dew or rain these years unless I say so.”
ギレアデに居住れるテシベ人エリヤ、アハブに言ふ吾事ふるイスララエルの神ヱホバは活くわが言なき時は數年雨露あらざるべしと
2 The word of Yahweh came to Elijah, saying,
ヱホバの言彼に臨みて曰く
3 “Leave from here and go eastward; hide yourself by the brook Kerith, east of the Jordan.
爾此より往て東に赴きヨルダンの前にあるケリテ川に身を匿せ
4 It will happen that you will drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.”
爾其川の水を飮べし我鴉に命じて彼處にて爾を養はしむと
5 So Elijah went and did as the word of Yahweh commanded. He went to live by the brook Kerith, east of the Jordan.
彼往てヱホバの言の如く爲り即ち往てヨルダンの前にあるケリテ川に住り
6 The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook.
彼の所に鴉朝にパンと肉亦夕にパンと肉を運べり彼は川に飮り
7 But after a while the brook dried up because there was no rain in the land.
しかるに國に雨なかりければ數日の後其川涸ぬ
8 The word of Yahweh came to him, saying,
ヱホバの言彼に臨みて曰
9 “Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and live there. Look, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you.”
起てシドンに屬するザレバテに往て其處に住め視よ我彼處の嫠婦に命じて爾を養はしむと
10 So he arose and went to Zarephath, and when he came to the gate of the city a widow was there gathering sticks. So he called to her and said, “Please bring me a little water in a jar so that I may drink.”
彼起てザレパテに往けるが邑の門に至れる時一人の嫠婦の其處に薪を採ふを見たり乃ち之を呼て曰けるは請ふ器に少許の水を我に携來りて我に飮せよと
11 As she was going to get water he called to her, and said, “Please bring me a piece of bread in your hand.”
彼之を携きたらんとて往る時エリヤ彼を呼て言けるは請ふ爾の手に一口のパンを我に取きたれと
12 She replied, “As Yahweh your God lives, I do not have any bread, but only a handful of meal in a jar and a little oil in a jug. See, I am gathering two sticks so I may go in and cook it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.”
彼いひけるは爾の神ヱホバは活く我はパン無し只桶に一握の粉と瓶に少許の油あるのみ觀よ我は二の薪を採ふ我いりてわれとわが子のために調理て之をくらひて死んとす
13 Elijah said to her, “Do not fear. Go and do as you have said, but make me a little bread first and bring it out to me. Then afterward make some for you and for your son.
エリヤ彼に言ふ懼るるなかれ往て汝がいへる如くせよ但し先其をもてわが爲に小きパン一を作りて我に携きたり其後爾のためと爾の子のために作るべし
14 For Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, 'The jar of meal will not empty, neither will the jug of oil stop flowing, until the day that Yahweh sends rain on the earth.”
其はヱホバの雨を地の面に降したまふ日までは其桶の粉は竭ず其瓶の油は絶ずとイスラエルの神ヱホバ言たまへばなりと
15 So she did as Elijah had told her. She and Elijah, along with her household, ate for many days.
彼ゆきてエリヤの言るごとくなし彼と其家及びエリヤ久く食へり
16 The jar of meal did not empty, neither did the jug of oil stop flowing, just as the word of Yahweh had said, as he had spoken by Elijah.
ヱホバのエリヤに由て言たまひし言のごとく桶の粉は竭ず瓶の油は絶ざりき
17 After these things the woman's son, the woman who owned the house, fell sick. His sickness was so severe that there was no more breath left in him.
是等の事の後其家の主母なる婦の子疾に罹しが其病甚だ劇くして氣息其中に絶て無きに至れり
18 So his mother said to Elijah, “What do you have against me, man of God? Have you come to me to remind me of my sin and to kill my son?”
婦エリアに言けるは神の人よ汝なんぞ吾事に關渉るべけんや汝はわが罪を憶ひ出さしめんため又わが子を死しめんために我に來れるか
19 Then Elijah replied to her, “Give me your son.” He took the boy from her arms and carried him up into the room where he was staying, and he laid the boy on his own bed.
エリヤ彼に爾の子を我に授せと言て之を其懐より取り之を己の居る桜に抱のぼりて己の牀に臥しめ
20 He cried to Yahweh and said, “Yahweh my God, have you also brought disaster on the widow with whom I am staying, by killing her son?”
ヱホバに呼はりていひけるは吾神ヱホバよ爾は亦吾ともに宿る嫠に菑をくだして其子を死しめたまふやと
21 Then Elijah stretched himself on the child three times; he cried out to Yahweh and said, “Yahweh my God, I beg you, please let this child's life return to him.”
而して三度身を伸して其子の上に伏しヱホバに呼はりて言ふわが神ヱホバ願くは此子の魂を中に歸しめたまへと
22 Yahweh listened to the voice of Elijah; the life of the child returned to him, and he revived.
ヱホバ、エリヤの聲を聽いれたまひしかば其子の魂中にかへりて生たり
23 Elijah took the child and brought him out of his room down into the house; he handed the boy to his mother and said, “See, your son is alive.”
エリヤ乃ち其子を取て之を桜より家に携くだり其母に與していひけるは視よ爾の子は生くと
24 The woman said to Elijah, “Now I know that you are a man of God, and that the word of Yahweh in your mouth is true.”
婦エリヤにいひけるは此に縁て我は爾が神の人にして爾の口にあるヱホバの言は眞實なるを知ると
