1 Kings 19
1 And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and how he had slain all the prophets with the sword.
| وَأَخْبَرَ أَخْآبُ إِيزَابَلَ بِكُلِّ مَا عَمِلَ إِيلِيَّا، وَكَيْفَ أَنَّهُ قَتَلَ جَمِيعَ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ بِٱلسَّيْفِ. | ١ |
2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, So let the gods do [to me], and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to-morrow about this time.
| فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِيزَابَلُ رَسُولًا إِلَى إِيلِيَّا تَقُولُ: «هَكَذَا تَفْعَلُ ٱلْآلِهَةُ وَهَكَذَا تَزِيدُ، إِنْ لَمْ أَجْعَلْ نَفْسَكَ كَنَفْسِ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ فِي نَحْوِ هَذَا ٱلْوَقْتِ غَدًا». | ٢ |
3 And when he saw [that], he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beer-sheba, which [belongeth] to Judah, and left his servant there.
| فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ قَامَ وَمَضَى لِأَجْلِ نَفْسِهِ، وَأَتَى إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ ٱلَّتِي لِيَهُوذَا وَتَرَكَ غُلَامَهُ هُنَاكَ. | ٣ |
4 But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper-tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I [am] not better than my fathers.
| ثُمَّ سَارَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ مَسِيرَةَ يَوْمٍ، حَتَّى أَتَى وَجَلَسَ تَحْتَ رَتَمَةٍ وَطَلَبَ ٱلْمَوْتَ لِنَفْسِهِ، وَقَالَ: «قَدْ كَفَى ٱلْآنَ يَارَبُّ. خُذْ نَفْسِي لِأَنَّنِي لَسْتُ خَيْرًا مِنْ آبَائِي». | ٤ |
5 And as he lay and slept under a juniper-tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said to him, Arise [and] eat.
| وَٱضْطَجَعَ وَنَامَ تَحْتَ ٱلرَّتَمَةِ. وَإِذَا بِمَلَاكٍ قَدْ مَسَّهُ وَقَالَ: «قُمْ وَكُلْ». | ٥ |
6 And he looked, and behold, [there was] a cake baked on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he ate and drank, and laid himself down again.
| فَتَطَلَّعَ وَإِذَا كَعْكَةُ رَضْفٍ وَكُوزُ مَاءٍ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ، فَأَكَلَ وَشَرِبَ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَٱضْطَجَعَ. | ٦ |
7 And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise [and] eat, because the journey [is] too great for thee.
| ثُمَّ عَادَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ ثَانِيَةً فَمَسَّهُ وَقَالَ: «قُمْ وَكُلْ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْمَسَافَةَ كَثِيرَةٌ عَلَيْكَ». | ٧ |
8 And he arose, and ate and drank, and went in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights to Horeb the mount of God.
| فَقَامَ وَأَكَلَ وَشَرِبَ، وَسَارَ بِقُوَّةِ تِلْكَ ٱلْأَكْلَةِ أَرْبَعِينَ نَهَارًا وَأَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً إِلَى جَبَلِ ٱللهِ حُورِيبَ، | ٨ |
9 And he came thither to a cave, and lodged there; and behold, the word of the LORD [came] to him, and he said to him, What doest thou here, Elijah?
| وَدَخَلَ هُنَاكَ ٱلْمُغَارَةَ وَبَاتَ فِيهَا. وَكَانَ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَيْهِ يَقُولُ: «مَا لَكَ هَهُنَا يَاإِيلِيَّا؟» | ٩ |
10 And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: for the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thy altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, I only, am left; and they seek my life to take it away.
| فَقَالَ: «قَدْ غِرْتُ غَيْرَةً لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ ٱلْجُنُودِ، لِأَنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَدْ تَرَكُوا عَهْدَكَ، وَنَقَضُوا مَذَابِحَكَ، وَقَتَلُوا أَنْبِيَاءَكَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، فَبَقِيتُ أَنَا وَحْدِي، وَهُمْ يَطْلُبُونَ نَفْسِي لِيَأْخُذُوهَا». | ١٠ |
11 And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and broke in pieces the rocks before the LORD; [but] the LORD [was] not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; [but] the LORD [was] not in the earthquake:
| فَقَالَ: «ٱخْرُجْ وَقِفْ عَلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ». وَإِذَا بِٱلرَّبِّ عَابِرٌ وَرِيحٌ عَظِيمَةٌ وَشَدِيدَةٌ قَدْ شَقَّتِ ٱلْجِبَالَ وَكَسَّرَتِ ٱلصُّخُورَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَلَمْ يَكُنِ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي ٱلرِّيحِ. وَبَعْدَ ٱلرِّيحِ زَلْزَلَةٌ، وَلَمْ يَكُنِ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي ٱلزَّلْزَلَةِ. | ١١ |
12 And after the earthquake a fire; [but] the LORD [was] not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
| وَبَعْدَ ٱلزَّلْزَلَةِ نَارٌ، وَلَمْ يَكُنِ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي ٱلنَّارِ. وَبَعْدَ ٱلنَّارِ صَوْتٌ مُنْخَفِضٌ خَفِيفٌ. | ١٢ |
13 And it was [so], when Elijah heard [it], that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entrance of the cave. And behold, [there came] a voice to him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ إِيلِيَّا لَفَّ وَجْهَهُ بِرِدَائِهِ وَخَرَجَ وَوَقَفَ فِي بَابِ ٱلْمُغَارَةِ، وَإِذَا بِصَوْتٍ إِلَيْهِ يَقُولُ: «مَا لَكَ هَهُنَا يَا إِيلِيَّا؟» | ١٣ |
14 And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: because the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thy altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.
| فَقَالَ: «غِرْتُ غَيْرَةً لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ ٱلْجُنُودِ، لِأَنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَدْ تَرَكُوا عَهْدَكَ، وَنَقَضُوا مَذَابِحَكَ، وَقَتَلُوا أَنْبِيَاءَكَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، فَبَقِيتُ أَنَا وَحْدِي، وَهُمْ يَطْلُبُونَ نَفْسِي لِيَأْخُذُوهَا». | ١٤ |
15 And the LORD said to him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus: and when thou comest, anoint Hazael [to be] king over Syria:
| فَقَالَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ: «ٱذْهَبْ رَاجِعًا فِي طَرِيقِكَ إِلَى بَرِّيَّةِ دِمِشْقَ، وَٱدْخُلْ وَٱمْسَحْ حَزَائِيلَ مَلِكًا عَلَى أَرَامَ، | ١٥ |
16 And Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint [to be] king over Israel: and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah shalt thou anoint [to be] prophet in thy room.
| وَٱمْسَحْ يَاهُوَ بْنَ نِمْشِي مَلِكًا عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَٱمْسَحْ أَلِيشَعَ بْنَ شَافَاطَ مِنْ آبَلَ مَحُولَةَ نَبِيًّا عِوَضًا عَنْكَ. | ١٦ |
17 And it shall come to pass, [that] him that escapeth the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay: and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay.
| فَٱلَّذِي يَنْجُو مِنْ سَيْفِ حَزَائِيلَ يَقْتُلُهُ يَاهُو، وَٱلَّذِي يَنْجُو مِنْ سَيْفِ يَاهُو يَقْتُلُهُ أَلِيشَعُ. | ١٧ |
18 Yet I have left to [me] seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed to Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.
| وَقَدْ أَبْقَيْتُ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ سَبْعَةَ آلَافٍ، كُلَّ ٱلرُّكَبِ ٱلَّتِي لَمْ تَجْثُ لِلْبَعْلِ وَكُلَّ فَمٍ لَمْ يُقَبِّلْهُ». | ١٨ |
19 So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who [was] plowing [with] twelve yoke [of oxen] before him, and he with the twelfth: and Elijah passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him.
| فَذَهَبَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ وَوَجَدَ أَلِيشَعَ بْنَ شَافَاطَ يَحْرُثُ، وَٱثْنَا عَشَرَ فَدَّانَ بَقَرٍ قُدَّامَهُ، وَهُوَ مَعَ ٱلثَّانِي عَشَرَ. فَمَرَّ إِيلِيَّا بِهِ وَطَرَحَ رِدَاءَهُ عَلَيْهِ. | ١٩ |
20 And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and [then] I will follow thee. And he said to him, Go back again: for what have I done to thee?
| فَتَرَكَ ٱلْبَقَرَ وَرَكَضَ وَرَاءَ إِيلِيَّا وَقَالَ: «دَعْنِي أُقَبِّلُ أَبِي وَأُمِّي وَأَسِيرُ وَرَاءَكَ». فَقَالَ لَهُ: «ٱذْهَبْ رَاجِعًا، لِأَنِّي مَاذَا فَعَلْتُ لَكَ؟» | ٢٠ |
21 And he returned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen, and slew them, and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave to the people, and they ate. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered to him.
| فَرَجَعَ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ وَأَخَذَ فَدَّانَ بَقَرٍ وَذَبَحَهُمَا، وَسَلَقَ ٱللَّحْمَ بِأَدَوَاتِ ٱلْبَقَرِ وَأَعْطَى ٱلشَّعْبَ فَأَكَلُوا. ثُمَّ قَامَ وَمَضَى وَرَاءَ إِيلِيَّا وَكَانَ يَخْدِمُهُ. | ٢١ |
