< 1 Kings 19 >
1 And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and how he had slain all the prophets with the sword.
Elijah ni tahloi hoi profetnaw pueng koung a theinae kong dawkvah, Ahab ni Jezebel koe a dei pouh.
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.
Jezebel ni, hotnaw thung dawk e tami buet touh e hringnae patetlah tangtho tuektue vah na hringnae ka sak hoehnahlan teh, cathutnaw ni a ngai awh e patetlah na sak awh naseh, hot hlak ka pataw lahai yah, telah Elijah koe patoune a patoun.
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.
Hote hah a thai toteh, a thaw teh a yawng. Judah ram Beersheba vah a pha teh hawvah, a san heh a hruek.
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.
Ama teh kahrawngum hnin touh lamcei koe a cei teh, samphokung rahim a tahung teh, a due nahanelah a ratoum. A khout toe, Oe BAWIPA atuvah, ka hringnae hah lat yawkaw lawih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, mintoenaw hlak haiyah, kahawihnawn kalawn hoeh, telah a ti.
5 And as he lay and slept under a juniper-tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said to him, Arise [and] eat.
Hottelah samphokung rahim a yan teh a i. Hahoi khenhaw! kalvantaminaw ni a tek awh teh, ahni koe, thaw nateh cat haw, telah a ti.
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.
A kamlang teh khenhaw! vaiyei hmai pahai e phen touh hoi tuium a lû koe ao e hah a hmu teh, a ca teh bout a i.
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.
BAWIPA e kalvantami buet touh a tho teh bout a tek, thaw nateh cat. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kahlawng na cei nahane ahlapoung dawkvah, na khang thai hoeh langvaih atipouh.
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.
A thaw teh a ca teh a nei, hottelah rawca a ca e lahoi Cathut e mon Horeb totouh hnin 40 rum 40 touh a cei.
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?
Lungngoum buet touh a hmu teh hawvah ao. Hahoi khenhaw! BAWIPA e lawk ahni koe a pha teh, Elijah, hivah bangmaw na sak, telah a pacei.
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.
Ahni ni BAWIPA ransabawi Cathut hanelah thouk ka kâyawm teh, bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarel catounnaw ni, na lawkkam hah hnamthun takhai awh teh, na khoungroe hah a raphoe awh teh, na profet hah tahloi hoi a thei awh, kaawm e teh kai dueng doeh toe, ka hringnae hai thei hanlah a kâcai awh, telah a ti.
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:
Ahni ni tâcawt nateh, BAWIPA hmalah mon vah kangdout haw, telah ati. Hahoi khenhaw! BAWIPA a tho. Katangpounge kahlî ni BAWIPA hmalah mon hah a hmang teh, lungsongnaw koung a kâbawng. Hatei, BAWIPA teh kahlî dawk awm hoeh. Kahlî be a roum hoi Tâlî a no. Hatei, Tâlî dawk BAWIPA teh awm hoeh.
12 And after the earthquake a fire; [but] the LORD [was] not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
Tâlî be a no hnukkhu hmai a tâco. Hatei, hmai dawk BAWIPA teh awm hoeh. Hmai a roum toteh, lawkkanem pâdingsue lah a tho.
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?
Elijah ni hot hah a thai toteh, a tâco teh lungngoum rai koe a kangdue. Hahoi thaihaw lawk ni, Elijah hivah bangmaw na sak, atipouh.
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.
Ahni ni, BAWIPA ransabawi Cathut hanelah thouk ka kâyawm. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarel catounnaw ni na lawkkam hah a hnamthun awh teh, na khoungroe hah a raphoe awh teh, na profetnaw hah tahloi hoi a thei awh. Kai dueng doeh kaawm toe. Kai hah na thei hanlah a kâcai awh, telah a ti.
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:
BAWIPA ni ahni koe, ban nateh, kahrawngum hoi Damaskas lah cet, na tho torei Siria siangpahrang hanelah Hazael hah satui na awi han.
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.
Isarel siangpahrang hanelah Nimshi capa Jehu hah satui na awi han. Hahoi nang yueng lah profet ka tawk hane Abelmelholath tami Saphat capa Elisha hah satui bout na awi han.
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.
Hazael tahloi hoi kahlout e pueng teh, Jehu ni a thei han, Jehu tahloi hoi kahlout e pueng teh Elisha ni a thei han.
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.
Hatei, Isarel ram vah, Baal hmalah a khokpakhu ka cuengkhuem boihoeh ni teh ka pahnuem boihoeh e tami 7000 touh kama hanelah ka ta toe, telah a ti.
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.
Haw hoi a tâco teh, Saphat capa Elisha hah a hmu. A hmalah maitotan bo hlaikahni touh ni talai a thawn teh, a hlaikahni e dawkvah ama teh ao. Elijah ni a ceihlawi navah, a hni hoi ahni teh a dêi.
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?
A maitotan a ceitakhai teh, Elijah a hnuk lahoi a pâlei teh apa hoi anu ka paco han rah, hahoi ka kâbang han telah atipouh. Ahni ni, bout ban, bangkongtetpawiteh, nang hanlah bangmaw ka sak, telah a ti.
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.
Haw hoi a ban teh, maitotan bo touh hah a thei teh, talai thawnnae thing hoi a thawng teh, khocanaw a poe teh a ca awh. Hahoi a thaw teh Elijah hnuk a kâbang teh, a san lah a coung.
