1 Kings 19
1 Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword.
Ahab fa ya faɗa wa Yezebel kome da Iliya ya yi, da yadda ya karkashe dukan annabawan da takobi.
2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “So may the gods do to me, and more also, if I do not make your life like the life of one of those dead prophets by tomorrow about this time.”
Saboda haka Yezebel ta aika da ɗan aika wa Iliya yă faɗa masa, “Bari alloli su hukunta ni da tsanani, in war haka gobe ban mai da ranka kamar na ɗaya daga cikin annabawan Ba’al ba.”
3 When Elijah heard that, he arose and fled for his life and came to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there.
Iliya ya ji tsoro, ya gudu don yă ceci ransa. Sa’ad da ya kai Beyersheba a Yahuda, sai ya bar bawansa a can.
4 But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom tree. He requested for himself that he might die, and said, “It is enough, now, Yahweh; take away my life, for I am no better than my dead ancestors.”
Shi kuma ya yi tafiya yini guda zuwa cikin hamada. Ya zo wurin wani itacen tsintsiya, ya zauna a ƙarƙashinsa, ya roƙa yă mutu. Ya ce, “Ya ishe ni haka, Ubangiji, ka ɗauki raina; ban fi kakannina ba.”
5 So he lay down and slept under a broom tree. Suddenly an angel touched him and said to him, “Get up and eat.”
Sa’an nan ya kwanta a ƙarƙashin itacen ya yi barci. Farat ɗaya sai wani mala’ika ya taɓa shi, ya ce, “Tashi ka ci abinci.”
6 Elijah looked, and near his head was bread that had been baked on coals and a jug of water. So he ate and drank and then lay down again.
Ya duba kewaye, sai ga wainar burodi kusa da kansa a bisa garwashin wuta mai zafi, da kuma tulun ruwa. Ya ci, ya sha, sa’an nan ya sāke kwanta.
7 The angel of Yahweh came again a second time and touched him and said, “Get up and eat, because the journey will be too much for you.”
Mala’ikan Ubangiji ya sāke dawowa sau na biyu ya taɓa shi, ya ce, “Tashi ka ci abinci, gama tafiyar za tă yi maka yawa.”
8 So he arose and ate and drank, and he traveled in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights to Horeb, the mountain of God.
Saboda haka ya tashi ya ci, ya kuma sha. Ta wurin ƙarfin da ya samu saboda wannan abinci, ya yi tafiya yini arba’in da dare arba’in, sai da ya kai Horeb, dutsen Allah.
9 He went to a cave there and stayed in it. Then the word of Yahweh came to him and said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
A can ya shiga kogo ya kwana. Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo masa, ta ce, “Me kake yi a nan, Iliya?”
10 Elijah replied, “I have been very zealous for Yahweh, God of hosts, for the people of Israel have forsaken your covenant, destroyed your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword. Now I, only I, am left and they are also trying to take my life.”
Ya amsa, ya ce, “Ina kishi dominka Ubangiji, Allah Maɗaukaki. Isra’ilawa sun ƙi alkawarinka, suka rurrushe bagadanka, suka kuma kashe annabawanka da takobi. Ni ne kaɗai na rage, yanzu, ni ma suna ƙoƙari su kashe ni.”
11 Yahweh replied, “Go out and stand on the mountain before me.” Then Yahweh passed by, and a very strong wind struck the mountains and broke rocks into pieces before Yahweh, but Yahweh was not in the wind. Then after the wind, an earthquake came, but Yahweh was not in the earthquake.
Sai Ubangiji ya ce, “Fita ka tsaya a kan dutse a gaban Ubangiji, gama Ubangiji yana shirin wucewa.” Sai ga babbar iska mai ƙarfi ta tsage duwatsu, ta kuma ragargaza duwatsu a gaban Ubangiji, amma Ubangiji ba ya cikin iskar. Bayan iskar sai aka yi girgizar ƙasa, amma Ubangiji ba ya cikin girgizar ƙasa.
12 Then after the earthquake a fire came, but Yahweh was not in the fire. Then after the fire, a still small voice came.
Bayan girgizar ƙasa, sai ga wuta, amma Ubangiji ba ya cikin wuta. Bayan wutar kuma sai ga wata’yar murya.
13 When Elijah heard the voice, he wrapped his face in his cloak, went out, and stood at the entrance of the cave. Then a voice came to him that said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
Sa’ad da Iliya ya ji ta, ya ja mayafinsa ya rufe fuskarsa, ya fita ya tsaya a bakin kogon. Sai ya ji murya ta ce masa, “Me kake yi a nan, Iliya?”
14 Elijah replied, “I have been very zealous for Yahweh, God of hosts, because the people of Israel have forsaken your covenant, destroyed your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword. Now I, only I, am left and they are also trying to take my life.”
Ya amsa, ya ce, “Ina kishi dominka Ubangiji, Allah Maɗaukaki. Isra’ilawa sun ƙi alkawarinka, suka rurrushe bagadanka, suka kuma kashe annabawanka da takobi. Ni ne kaɗai na rage, yanzu, ni ma suna ƙoƙari su kashe ni.”
15 Then Yahweh said to him, “Go, return on your way to the wilderness of Damascus, and when you arrive you will anoint Hazael to be king over Aram,
Sai Ubangiji ya ce masa, “Ka koma ta hanyar da ka zo, ka tafi Hamadan Damaskus. Sa’ad da ka kai can, ka shafe Hazayel yă zama sarki bisa Aram.
16 and you will anoint Jehu son of Nimshi to be king over Israel, and you will anoint Elisha son of Shaphat of Abel Meholah to be prophet in your place.
Ka kuma shafe Yehu ɗan Nimshi yă zama sarkin Isra’ila, ka shafe Elisha ɗan Shafat daga Abel-Mehola yă gāje ka a matsayin annabi.
17 It will happen that Jehu will kill whoever escapes from the sword of Hazael, and that Elisha will kill whoever escapes from the sword of Jehu.
Yehu zai kashe duk wani wanda ya tsere wa takobin Hazayel, Elisha kuwa zai kashe duk wani wanda ya tsere wa takobin Yehu.
18 But I will leave for myself seven thousand people in Israel, whose knees have not bent down to Baal, and whose mouths have not kissed him.”
Duk da haka zan bar mutane dubu bakwai na Isra’ila waɗanda ba su rusuna da gwiwansu wa Ba’al ba, ba su kuma sumbace shi da bakinsu ba.”
19 So Elijah left from there and found Elisha son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he himself was plowing with the twelfth yoke. Elijah walked over to Elisha and draped his cloak on him.
Sai Iliya ya tafi daga can ya sami Elisha ɗan Shafat, yana noma da shanu goma sha biyu masu garman noma, shi kansa yana jan na goma sha biyun. Iliya ya tafi wurinsa ya jefa mayafinsa a kan Elisha.
20 Then Elisha left the oxen and ran after Elijah; he said, “Please let me kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow you.” Then Elijah said to him, “Go back, but think about what I have done to you.”
Sai Elisha ya bar shanun, ya ruga ya bi Iliya. Ya ce, “Bari in sumbace mahaifina da mahaifiyata, in yi musu bankwana, sa’an nan in zo in bi ka.” Iliya ya ce, “Koma! Me na yi maka?”
21 So Elisha returned from Elijah and took the yoke of oxen, killed the animals, and cooked the meat with the wood from the ox yoke. Then he gave it to the people and they ate. Then he arose, went after Elijah and served him.
Sai Elisha ya bar shi, ya koma, ya ɗauki shanunsa ya yayyanka. Ya ƙone kayan garman noman don yă dafa naman, ya kuma ba wa mutane naman, suka kuwa ci. Sa’an nan ya tashi, ya bi Iliya, ya kuma zama mai hidimarsa.
