1 Kings 18
1 So after many days the word of Yahweh came to Elijah, in the third year of the drought, saying, “Go, show yourself to Ahab and I will send rain on the land.”
Oo wakhti dheer dabadiis waxay noqotay in sannaddii saddexaad eraygii Rabbigu Eliiyaah u yimid oo uu ku yidhi, Tag oo Axaab istus, oo anna roob baan dhulka ku soo daynayaa.
2 Elijah went to show himself to Ahab; now the famine was severe in Samaria.
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu u tegey inuu Axaab istuso. Oo abaartuna aad bay ugu xumayd Samaariya.
3 Ahab called Obadiah, who was in charge of the palace. Now Obadiah honored Yahweh very much,
Markaasaa Axaab wuxuu u yeedhay Cobadyaah oo shuqulkii guriga u sarreeyey. (Haddaba Cobadyaah Rabbiga aad buu uga cabsan jiray,
4 for when Jezebel was killing the prophets of Yahweh, Obadiah took one hundred prophets and hid them by fifties in a cave and fed them with bread and water.
waayo, markay Yesebeel baabbi'isay nebiyadii Rabbiga ayaa Cobadyaah kaxeeyey boqol nebi, oo kontonba god buu ku qariyey, oo wuxuu ku quudin jiray kibis iyo biyo.)
5 Ahab said to Obadiah, “Go through the land to all the water springs and brooks. Perhaps we will find grass and save the horses and mules alive, so that we will not lose all the animals.”
Markaasaa Axaab wuxuu Cobadyaah ku yidhi, Bal tag, oo dalka oo dhan dhex mar, ilaa ilaha biyaha oo dhan, iyo durdurrada oo dhan, waaba intaasoo aynu daaq helnaa, si aynu fardaha iyo baqlaha u noolayno, oo ayan cuudka oo dhammu nooga dhammaan.
6 So they divided the land between them to pass through it and look for water. Ahab went one way by himself and Obadiah went another way.
Sidaas daraaddeed dhulkii way qaybsadeen inay soo wada dhex maraan; Axaab keligiis dhan buu u sahamiyey, Cobadyaahna dhankii kaluu keligiis u sahamiyey.
7 As Obadiah was on the road, Elijah unexpectedly met him. Obadiah recognized him and lay facedown on the ground. He said, “Is it you, my master Elijah?”
Oo bal eeg, Cobadyaah intuu jidkii sii socday ayaa waxaa ka hor yimid Eliiyaah; oo wuu aqooday, markaasuu wejiga dhulka saaray, oo wuxuu yidhi, Eliiyaahow sayidkaygiiyow, ma adigii baa?
8 Elijah answered him, “It is I. Go tell your master, 'Look, Elijah is here.'”
Markaasuu ugu jawaabay, Haah, waa anigii; haddaba tag oo sayidkaagii waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, War Eliiyaah halkanuu joogaa.
9 Obadiah replied, “How have I sinned, that you would give your servant into the hand of Ahab, for him to kill me?
Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, War maxaan ku dembaabay, oo aad u doonaysaa anoo addoonkaaga ah inaad Axaab ii gacangeliso inuu i dilo aawadeed?
10 As Yahweh your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom where my master has not sent men to find you. Whenever a nation or kingdom says, 'Elijah is not here,' Ahab makes them take an oath swearing that they could not find you.
Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah noloshiisaan ku dhaartaye inaan la arag quruun iyo boqortooyo uusan sayidkaygu cid u dirin si uu kaaga goobo; oo markay yidhaahdeen, Halkan ma joogo, ayuu boqortooyo kasta iyo quruun kastaba dhaariyey inay ku waayeen.
11 Yet now you say, 'Go, tell your master that Elijah is here.'
Oo imminka waxaad leedahay, Tag, oo sayidkaagii u sheeg in Eliiyaah halkan joogo.
12 As soon as I am gone from you, the Spirit of Yahweh will carry you some place I do not know. Then when I go and tell Ahab, and when he cannot find you, he will kill me. Yet I, your servant, have worshiped Yahweh from my youth.
Oo bal eeg waxay noqon doontaa markaan kaa tago in Ruuxa Rabbigu kuu qaadi doona meel aanan aqoon, oo sidaas daraaddeed markaan Axaab u tago oo kuu soo sheego, oo uu ku waayo aniguu i dilayaa; laakiinse anigoo addoonkaaga ah Rabbiga waan ka cabsan jiray tan iyo dhallinyaranimadaydii.
13 Has it not been told to you, my master, what I did when Jezebel killed the prophets of Yahweh, how I hid one hundred of Yahweh's prophets by fifties in a cave and fed them with bread and water?
Oo sayidkaygiiyow, miyaan laguu sheegin wixii aan sameeyey markii Yesebeel laysay nebiyadii Rabbiga, iyo sidaan u qariyey boqol nin oo Rabbiga nebiyadiisii ah, oo aan kontonba god geliyey, oo aan kibis iyo biyo ku quudiyey?
14 Now you say to me, 'Go and tell your master that Elijah is here,' so that he will kill me.”
Oo hadda waxaad igu leedahay, Tag oo sayidkaagii u sheeg in Eliiyaah halkan joogo; oo isna wuu i dilayaa.
15 Then Elijah responded, “As Yahweh of hosts lives, before whom I stand, I will surely show myself to Ahab today.”
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Waxaan ku dhaartay Rabbiga ciidammada ee aan hor taagnahay noloshiisa inaan xaqiiqa maanta isaga isu muujinayo.
16 So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him what Elijah said. Then the king went to meet Elijah.
Sidaas daraaddeed Cobadyaah wuxuu u tegey inuu Axaab la kulmo, wuuna u soo sheegay; markaasaa Axaab u tegey inuu Eliiyaah la kulmo.
17 When Ahab saw Elijah, he said to him, “Is it you? You are the one who brings trouble to Israel!”
Oo markuu Axaab arkay Eliiyaah ayuu ku yidhi, War ma adigii baa kii dadkii Israa'iil dhibayayow?
18 Elijah answered, “I have not brought trouble to Israel, but you and your father's family are the ones who have caused trouble by abandoning the commandments of Yahweh and by following the Baals.
Markaasuu u jawaabay, oo ku yidhi, Anigu dadkii Israa'iil ma aanan dhibin, laakiinse waxaa dhibay adiga iyo reerka aabbahaa, waayo, waxaad ka tagteen amarradii Rabbiga, oo weliba waxaad raacday Bacaliim.
19 Now then, send word and gather to me all Israel at Mount Carmel, along with the 450 prophets of Baal and the four hundred prophets of Asherah who eat at Jezebel's table.”
Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed u cid dir, oo dadkii Israa'iil oo dhan, iyo Bacal nebiyadiisa ah afarta boqol iyo konton, iyo geedihii Asheeraah nebiyadooda ah afar boqol oo miiska Yesebeel wax ka cuna, kulli ku soo wada ururi Buur Karmel.
20 So Ahab sent word to all the people of Israel and gathered the prophets together at Mount Carmel.
Sidaas daraaddeed Axaab wuxuu u cid diray dadkii Israa'iil oo dhan, oo nebiyadiina wuxuu ku soo wada ururiyey Buur Karmel.
21 Elijah came near to all the people and said, “How long will you keep changing your mind? If Yahweh is God, follow him. But if Baal is God, then follow him.” Yet the people did not answer him a word.
Markaasaa Eliiyaah u soo dhowaaday dadkii oo dhan, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War ilaa goormaad laba ra'yi u dhexaynaysaan? War haddii Rabbigu Ilaah yahay isaga raaca, laakiinse haddii Bacal Ilaah yahay isaga raaca. Oo dadkiina isagii xataa eray keliya uguma jawaabin.
22 Then Elijah said to the people, “I, I alone, am left as a prophet of Yahweh, but Baal's prophets are 450 men.
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu haddana dadkii ku yidhi, Anigoo keliya ayaa ka hadhay nebiyadii Rabbiga, laakiinse Bacal nebiyadiisu waa afar boqol iyo konton nin.
23 So let them give us two bulls. Let them choose one bull for themselves and cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, but put no fire under it. Then I will prepare the other bull and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under it.
Haddaba bal laba dibi ha naloo keeno, oo iyagu dibi ha doorteen, oo ha jarjareen, oo qoryaha ha dul saareen, oo innaba dab yay hoosta ka gelin; oo anna dibiga kalaan qalayaa, oo qoryahaan dul saarayaa, oo innaba dab hoosta ka gelin maayo.
24 Then you will call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of Yahweh, and the God who answers by fire, then let him be God.” So all the people answered and said, “This is good.”
Oo markaas idinku u yeedha magaca ilaahiinna, oo anna waxaan u yeedhanayaa magaca Rabbiga; oo markaas Ilaahii dab ku soo jawaabaa ha ahaado Ilaah. Markaasaa dadkii oo dhammu jawaabeen oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Kaasu waa hadal wanaagsan.
25 So Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, “Choose one bull for yourselves and prepare it first, for you are many people. Then call on the name of your god, but put no fire under the bull.”
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu nebiyadii Bacal ku yidhi, Bal idinku dibi doorta oo marka hore qala, dabse hoosta ha ka gelinina, oo idinku waad badan tihiine marka hore u yeedha magaca ilaahiinna.
26 They took the bull that was given to them and prepared it, and they called on the name of Baal from morning until noon, saying, “Baal, hear us.” But there was no voice, nor anyone who answered. They danced around the altar they had made.
Markaasay qaateen dibigii la siiyey, wayna qaleen, oo aroortii ilaa duhurkii ayay u yeedhanayeen magicii Bacal, oo waxay lahaayeen, Bacalow, na maqal! Laakiinse cod iyo wax iyaga u jawaabay toona ma jirin. Oo meeshii allabariga oo la dhisay hareeraheeda ayay boodboodayeen.
27 At noon Elijah mocked them and said, “Shout out loudly! He is a god! Perhaps he is thinking, or is relieving himself, or he is traveling on a journey, or perhaps he is sleeping and must be awakened.”
Oo waxay duhurkii noqotay inuu Eliiyaah iyagii ku majaajilooday oo ku yidhi, War aad u qayliya; waayo, waa ilaah, oo mindhaa wuu isla tashanayaa, ama gees buu u leexday, ama socdaal buu ku maqan yahay, ama mindhaa wuu iska hurdaa oo waa in la toosiyaa.
28 So they shouted more loudly, and they cut themselves, as they usually did, with swords and spears, until their blood flowed out over themselves.
Markaasay aad u qayliyeen, oo sidii caadadoodu ahayd waxay isku jareen mindiyo iyo eebooyin ilamaa dhiig ka soo burqaday.
29 Midday passed, and they were still raving until the time of offering of the evening sacrifice, but there was no voice or anyone to answer; there was no one who paid any attention to their pleadings.
Oo markii hadhkii la dhaafay ayay sidii nebi wax sii sheegayeen ilaa wakhtigii la bixin jiray allabarigii fiidnimada, laakiinse cod iyo wax u jawaaba iyo wax ka dan leh midna ma jirin.
30 Then Elijah said to all the people, “Come near to me,” and all the people came near to him. Then he repaired the altar of Yahweh that was lying in ruin.
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu dadkii oo dhan ku yidhi, Haddaba ii soo dhowaada; kolkaasaa dadkii oo dhammu u soo dhowaadeen, dabadeedna meeshii allabariga ee Rabbiga ee la dumiyey ayuu hagaajiyey.
31 Elijah took twelve stones, each stone representing one of the tribes of the sons of Jacob—it was Jacob to whom the word of Yahweh came, saying, “Israel will be your name.”
Oo wuxuu Eliiyaah soo qaaday laba iyo toban dhagax oo ka dhigan intii qabiilooyinkii wiilashii Yacquub tiradoodu ahayd, kaasoo eraygii Rabbigu u yimid oo ku yidhi, Magacaagu wuxuu ahaan doonaa Israa'iil.
32 With the stones he built an altar in the name of Yahweh and he dug a trench around the altar large enough to contain two seahs of seeds.
Oo dhagxantii wuxuu meel allabari ugu dhisay magaca Rabbiga, oo meeshii allabariga hareeraheeda wuxuu ka qoday meel ku wareegsan oo qaadi karta laba qiyaas oo midho ah.
33 He arranged the wood for a fire, cut the bull in pieces, and laid the pieces of the bull on the wood. He said, “Fill four jars with water and pour it on the burnt offering and on the wood.”
Oo qoryihiina si hagaagsan buu u saaray, oo dibigiina intuu jarjaray ayuu qoryihii dul saaray. Markaasuu yidhi, Afar barmiil biyo ka soo buuxiya oo ku dul shuba qurbaanka la gubo iyo qoryahaba.
34 Then he said, “Do it a second time,” and they did it a second time. Once more he said, “Do it a third time,” and they did it a third time.
Oo haddana wuxuu ku yidhi, Sidii oo kale mar labaad yeela, iyana way yeeleen mar labaad. Oo haddana wuxuu ku yidhi, Sidii oo kale mar saddexaad yeela, oo iyana way yeeleen mar saddexaad.
35 The water ran around the altar and filled the trench.
Oo biyihii waxay qulquleen meeshii allabariga hareeraheeda, oo xataa meeshii la qodayna wuxuu ka buuxshay biyo.
36 It happened at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near and said, “Yahweh, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that you are God in Israel, and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word.
Oo markii la gaadhay wakhtigii la bixin jiray allabarigii fiidnimada, Nebi Eliiyaah waa soo dhowaaday, oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiyow, Ibraahim iyo Isxaaq iyo Israa'iil Ilaahoodiiyow, maanta dalka Israa'iil ha lagu dhex ogaado inaad adigu Ilaah tahay, oo aan anna ahay addoonkaaga, iyo inaan waxyaalahan oo dhan eraygaaga ku sameeyey.
37 Hear me, Yahweh, hear me, that these people may know that you, Yahweh, are God, and that you have turned their heart back again to yourself.”
Rabbiyow, i maqal oo i maqal, inay dadkanu ogaadaan inaad adigu Ilaah tahay Rabbiyow, iyo inaad qalbigooda soo celisay.
38 Then the fire of Yahweh fell and consumed the burnt offering, as well as the wood, the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.
Markaasaa Rabbiga dabkiisii soo dhacay oo wuxuu gubay allabariga la gubo, iyo qoryihii, iyo dhagxantii, iyo boodhkii, oo xataa biyihii godka ku jirayna ololkii baa leefay.
39 When all the people saw this, they lay facedown on the ground and said, “Yahweh, he is God! Yahweh, he is God!”
Oo markii dadkii taas arkay ayay wejiga u wada dhaceen; oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Rabbigu isagu waa Ilaah, Rabbigu isagu waa Ilaah.
40 So Elijah said to them, “Take the prophets of Baal. Do not let one of them escape.” So they took them, and Elijah brought the prophets of Baal down to the Kishon River and killed them there.
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Nebiyada Bacal qabta oo midna yuusan ka baxsan. Oo iyana way soo qabteen; markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu iyagii keenay durdurka Qiishoon agtiisa, oo halkaasuu iyagii ku laayay.
41 Elijah said to Ahab, “Get up, eat and drink, for there is the sound of much rain.”
Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu Axaab ku yidhi, War kac oo wax cun, oo wax cab, waayo, waxaa sanqadhaya roob badan!
42 So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. Then Elijah went up to the top of Carmel, bowed himself down on the earth and put his face between his knees.
Markaasaa Axaab u kacay inuu wax cuno oo wax cabbo. Oo Eliiyaahna wuxuu fuulay Buur Karmel dusheeda, oo intuu foororsaday ayuu dhulka ku sujuuday oo wejigiisiina wuxuu geliyey lowyihiisa dhexdooda.
43 He said to his servant, “Go up now, look toward the sea.” His servant went up and looked and said, “There is nothing.” So Elijah said, “Go again, seven times.”
Markaasuu midiidinkiisii ku yidhi, Bal tag oo badda xaggeeda fiiri. Kolkaasuu tegey oo wax fiiriyey, oo wuxuu yidhi, Waxba lama arko. Oo haddana wuxuu ku yidhi, Ku noqo toddoba jeer.
44 At the seventh time the servant said, “Look, there is a cloud going up from the sea, as small as a man's hand.” Elijah replied, “Go up and say to Ahab, 'Make ready your chariot and go down before the rain stops you.'”
Oo waxaa dhacday inuu markii toddobaad yidhi, Waxaa badda ka kacday daruur yar oo nin gacantiis le'eg. Isna wuxuu yidhi, Orod oo waxaad Axaab ku tidhaahdaa, War, gaadhifaraskaaga diyaarso oo dhaadhac, yaan roobku ku joojine.
45 It happened that in a little while the heavens grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. Ahab rode and went to Jezreel,
Oo wakhti yar dabadiis cirkii ayaa daruuro iyo dabayl la madoobaaday, oo waxaa jiray roob weyn. Oo Axaabna gaadhifaraskiisii buu fuulay, oo wuxuu tegey Yesreceel.
46 but the hand of Yahweh was on Elijah. He tucked his robe in his belt and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.
Oo Eliiyaah waxaa la jiray gacantii Rabbiga, oo intuu guntigiisii dhexda ku giigsaday ayuu Axaab hor ordayay ilaa meeshii Yesreceel laga galo.
