1 Kings 17
1 And Elijah the Tishbite [who was] of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, [As] the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.
| وَقَالَ إِيلِيَّا التَّشْبِيُّ مِنْ أَهْلِ جِلْعَادَ لأَخْآبَ: «حَيٌّ هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِي أَخْدُمُهُ، إِنَّهُ لَنْ يَهْطِلَ نَدىً وَلا مَطَرٌ فِي هَذِهِ السِّنِينَ، إِلّا حِينَ أُعْلِنُ ذَلِكَ». | ١ |
2 And the word of the LORD came to him, saying,
| وَأَمَرَ الرَّبُّ إِيلِيَّا: | ٢ |
3 Depart hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that [is] before Jordan.
| «امْضِ مِنْ هُنَا وَاتَّجِهْ نَحْوَ الْمَشْرِقِ، وَاخْتَبِئْ عِنْدَ نَهْرِ كَرِيثَ الْمُقَابِلِ لِنَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ، | ٣ |
4 And it shall be, [that] thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.
| فَتَشْرَبَ مِنْ مِيَاهِهِ وَتَقْتَاتَ مِمَّا تُحْضِرُهُ لَكَ الْغِرْبَانُ الَّتِي أَمَرْتُهَا أَنْ تَعُولَكَ هُنَاكَ». | ٤ |
5 So he went and did according to the word of the LORD: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that [is] before Jordan.
| فَانْطَلَقَ وَنَفَّذَ أَمْرَ الرَّبِّ، وَأَقَامَ عِنْدَ نَهْرِ كَرِيثَ مُقَابِلَ نَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ، | ٥ |
6 And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.
| فَكَانَتِ الْغِرْبَانُ تُحْضِرُ إِلَيْهِ الْخُبْزَ وَاللَّحْمَ صَبَاحاً وَمَسَاءً، وَكَانَ يَشْرَبُ مِنْ مَاءِ النَّهْرِ. | ٦ |
7 And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.
| وَمَا لَبِثَ أَنْ جَفَّ النَّهْرُ بَعْدَ زَمَنٍ، لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَهْطِلْ مَطَرٌ عَلَى الأَرْضِ. | ٧ |
8 And the word of the LORD came to him, saying,
| فَخَاطَبَ الرَّبُّ إِيلِيَّا: | ٨ |
9 Arise, go to Zarephath, which [belongeth] to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.
| «قُمْ وَتَوَجَّهْ إِلَى صِرْفَةَ التَّابِعَةِ لِصِيدُونَ، وَامْكُثْ هُنَاكَ، فَقَدْ أَمَرْتُ هُنَاكَ أَرْمَلَةً أَنْ تَتَكَفَّلَ بِإِعَالَتِكَ». | ٩ |
10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman [was] there gathering sticks: and he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
| فَذَهَبَ إِلَى صِرْفَةَ. وَعِنْدَمَا وَصَلَ إِلَى بَوَّابَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ شَاهَدَ امْرَأَةً تَجْمَعُ حَطَباً، فَقَالَ لَهَا: «هَاتِي لِي بَعْضَ الْمَاءِ فِي إِنَاءٍ لأَشْرَبَ». | ١٠ |
11 And as she was going to bring [it], he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thy hand.
| وَفِيمَا هِيَ ذَاهِبَةٌ لِتُحْضِرَهُ نَادَاهَا ثَانِيَةً وَقَالَ: «هَاتِي لِي كِسْرَةَ خُبْزٍ مَعَكِ». | ١١ |
12 And she said, [As] the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but a handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and behold, I [am] gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.
| فَأَجَابَتْهُ: «حَيٌّ هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَدَيَّ كَعْكَةٌ، إِنَّمَا حَفْنَةُ دَقِيقٍ فِي الْجَرَّةِ، وَقَلِيلٌ مِنَ الزَّيْتِ فِي قَارُورَةٍ. وَهَا أَنَا أَجْمَعُ بَعْضَ عِيدَانِ الْحَطَبِ لِآخُذَهَا وَأُعِدَّ لِي ولاِبْنِي طَعَاماً نَأْكُلُهُ ثُمَّ نَمُوتُ». | ١٢ |
13 And Elijah said to her, Fear not; go [and] do as thou hast said: but make me of it a little cake first, and bring [it] to me, and afterward make for thee and for thy son.
| فَقَالَ لَهَا إِيلِيَّا: «لا تَخَافِي. امْضِي وَاصْنَعِي كَمَا قُلْتِ، وَلَكِنْ أَعِدِّي لِي مِنْهُ كَعْكَةً صَغِيرَةً أَوَّلاً وَأَحْضِرِيهَا لِي، ثُمَّ اعْمَلِي لَكِ ولاِبْنِكِ أَخِيراً، | ١٣ |
14 For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day [that] the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth.
| لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: إِنَّ جَرَّةَ الدَّقِيقِ لَنْ تَفْرُغَ، وَقَارُورَةَ الزَّيْتِ لَنْ تَنْقُصَ، إِلَى الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي يُرْسِلُ فِيهِ الرَّبُّ مَطَراً عَلَى وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ». | ١٤ |
15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat [many] days.
| فَرَاحَتْ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهَا وَنَفَّذَتْ كَلامَ إِيلِيَّا، فَتَوَافَرَ لَهَا طَعَامٌ لِتَأْكُلَ هِيَ وَابْنُهَا وَإِيلِيَّا لِمُدَّةٍ طَوِيلَةٍ. | ١٥ |
16 [And] the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spoke by Elijah.
| جَرَّةُ الدَّقِيقِ لَمْ تَفْرُغْ، وَقَارُورَةُ الزَّيْتِ لَمْ تَنْقُصْ، تَمَاماً كَمَا قَالَ الرَّبُّ عَلَى لِسَانِ إِيلِيَّا. | ١٦ |
17 And it came to pass after these things [that] the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so severe, that there was no breath left in him.
| وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ زَمَنٍ أَنَّ ابْنَ الْمَرْأَةِ صَاحِبَةِ الْبَيْتِ اشْتَدَّ عَلَيْهِ الْمَرَضُ، وَمَاتَ، | ١٧ |
18 And she said to Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? art thou come to me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son?
| فَقَالَتْ لإِيِليَّا: «أَيُّ ذَنْبٍ جَنَيْتُهُ بِحَقِّكَ يَا رَجُلَ اللهِ؟ هَلْ جِئْتَ إِليَّ لِتُذَكِّرَنِي بِإِثْمِي وَتُمِيتَ ابْنِي؟» | ١٨ |
19 And he said to her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into a loft, where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed.
| فَقَالَ لَهَا: «أَعْطِينِي ابْنَكِ». وَأَخَذَهُ مِنْهَا وَصَعِدَ بِهِ إِلَى الْعُلِّيَّةِ الَّتِي كَانَ مُقِيماً فِيهَا وَأَضْجَعَهُ عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ، | ١٩ |
20 And he cried to the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son?
| وَاسْتَغَاثَ بِالرَّبِّ مُتَضَرِّعاً: «أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهِي، أَإِلَى الأَرْمَلَةِ الَّتِي أَنَا نَازِلٌ عِنْدَهَا تُسِيءُ أَيْضاً وَتُمِيتُ ابْنَهَا؟» | ٢٠ |
21 And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried to the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again.
| ثُمَّ تَمَدَّدَ إِيلِيَّا عَلَى جُثَّةِ الْوَلَدِ ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَابْتَهَلَ إِلَى الرَّبِّ: «يَا رَبُّ إِلَهِي، أَرْجِعْ نَفْسَ هَذَا الْوَلَدِ إِلَيْهِ». | ٢١ |
22 And the LORD heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.
| فَاسْتَجَابَ الرَّبُّ دُعَاءَ إِيلِيَّا، وَرَجَعَتْ نَفْسُ الْوَلَدِ إِلَيْهِ فَعَاشَ. | ٢٢ |
23 And Elijah took the child, and brought him down from the chamber into the house, and delivered him to his mother: and Elijah said, See, thy son liveth.
| فَأَخَذَ إِيلِيَّا الْوَلَدَ وَنَزَلَ بِهِ مِنَ الْعُلِّيَّةِ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ، وَسَلَّمَهُ إِلَى أُمِّهِ، وَقَالَ لَهَا: «انْظُرِي، إِنَّ ابْنَكِ حَيٌّ» | ٢٣ |
24 And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this I know that thou [art] a man of God, [and] that the word of the LORD in thy mouth [is] truth.
| فَقَالَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ لإِيلِيَّا: «الآنَ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ رَجُلُ اللهِ، وَأَنَّ اللهَ يَنْطِقُ عَلَى لِسَانِكَ بِالْحَقِّ». | ٢٤ |
