1 Kings 18
1 After many days, the LORD’s word came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, “Go, show yourself to Ahab; and I will send rain on the earth.”
Amalalu, ode osodayale gibu hame daha eso agoanega, Hina Gode da Ilaidiama amane sia: i, “Di asili, hina bagade A: iha: bema doaga: ma! Amasea, Na da gibu iasimu.”
2 Elijah went to show himself to Ahab. The famine was severe in Samaria.
Amaiba: le, Ilaidia da muni asi. Samelia soge ganodini, esoiba: le, ha: i da baligili bagadedafa ba: i.
3 Ahab called Obadiah, who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared the LORD greatly;
Amaiba: le, A:iha: be da hina bagade diasu ouligisu dunu Oubadaiama, ema misa: ne sia: i. (Oubadaia da noga: le Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu dawa: i.
4 for when Jezebel cut off the LORD’s prophets, Obadiah took one hundred prophets, and hid them fifty to a cave, and fed them with bread and water.)
Yesebele da Hina Gode Ea balofede dunu ili gebewane medole legelaloba, Oubadaia da balofede dunu 100 agoane lale, dogoa mogili gilisisu 50 aduna hamone, magufu gelabo aduna ganodini wamoaligimusa: oule asili, ilima ha: i manu amola hano gaguli masu.)
5 Ahab said to Obadiah, “Go through the land, to all the springs of water, and to all the brooks. Perhaps we may find grass and save the horses and mules alive, that we not lose all the animals.”
A: iha: be da Oubadaiama amane sia: i, “Ani ahoa: di! Ania da hano bubuga: su amola hano logo huluane soge ganodini ba: la masunu. Ania da Isala: ili dunu ilia hosi amola miule esalomusa: defele gisi hogola masunu. Amabela: ? Ninia ohe afae da hame medole legei ba: ma: bela: ?”
6 So they divided the land between them to pass throughout it. Ahab went one way by himself, and Obadiah went another way by himself.
Ela da sia: dalu, ela afae afae hogola masunu soge ilegei. Amalalu, ela da logo higagale asi.
7 As Obadiah was on the way, behold, Elijah met him. He recognized him, and fell on his face, and said, “Is it you, my lord Elijah?”
Oubadaia da logoga ahoanoba, hedolowane Ilaidia ba: i. E da ea odagi dawa: beba: le, ea midadi gududafa beguduli, amane adole ba: i, “Hina! Amo da dila: ?”
8 He answered him, “It is I. Go, tell your lord, ‘Behold, Elijah is here!’”
E bu adole i, “Dafawane! Na da Ilaidia wea! Di asili, dia hina bagade ema na da guiguda: esala: ba: ya adoma!”
9 He said, “How have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me?
Oubadaia da amane adole i, “Na da adi hamobela: ? Dia da abuliba: le na hina bagade A: iha: be, ea na fane legema: ne logo fodosala: ?
10 As the LORD your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom where my lord has not sent to seek you. When they said, ‘He is not here,’ he took an oath of the kingdom and nation that they didn’t find you.
Dia Hina Gode Esala amo Ea Dioba: le na da dafawane ilegele sia: sa. A: iha: be da osobo bagadega fifi asi gala huluane amo ganodini, di hogoi helei. Soge fi ouligisu dunu afae da di da ea soge ganodini hame esala sia: ne iasu ianoba, A:iha: be da amo hina bagade, e da di hamedafa ba: i, amo dafawane ilegele sia: musa: sia: i.
11 Now you say, ‘Go, tell your lord, “Behold, Elijah is here.”’
Amaiba: le, di da abuliba: le nama di da goega: i esala, amane ema sia: na masa: ne sia: bela: ?
12 It will happen, as soon as I leave you, that the LORD’s Spirit will carry you I don’t know where; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he can’t find you, he will kill me. But I, your servant, have feared the LORD from my youth.
Na da ahoasea, amola Hina Gode Ea A: silibu da di eno hame dawa: sogega oule ahoasea, na da adi hamoma: bela: ? Amane hamosea, na da A: iha: bema, di da goega: i esala amo adole, e da di goega: i esalebe hame ba: sea, na medole legemu. Di bu dawa: ma! Na goi fonobahadiga ganini, Hina Godema noga: le nodone sia: ne gadosu dawa: i.
13 Wasn’t it told my lord what I did when Jezebel killed the LORD’s prophets, how I hid one hundred men of the LORD’s prophets with fifty to a cave, and fed them with bread and water?
Yesebele da Hina Gode Ea balofede dunu ili gebewane medole legelaloba, na da balofede dunu 100 agoane lale, dogoa mogili gilisisu idi 50 aduna hamone, magufu gelabo aduna ganodini wamoaligimusa: oule asili, ilima ha: i manu amola hano gaguli masu. Amo di da hame nabibala: ?
14 Now you say, ‘Go, tell your lord, “Behold, Elijah is here”.’ He will kill me.”
Amaiba: le, di da abuli na hina bagadema, di da goega: i esala: ba: ya adoma: ne, nama sia: sala: ? E da na medole legemu!”
15 Elijah said, “As the LORD of Hosts lives, before whom I stand, I will surely show myself to him today.”
Ilaidia da bu adole i, “Na da Hina Gode Bagadedafa Esala amo Ea hawa: hamonana. Amola na da Ea Dioba: le dafawane ilegele sia: sa. Na da wali esoga, hina bagadema odagi olemu.”
16 So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him; and Ahab went to meet Elijah.
Amaiba: le, Oubadaia da hina bagade A: iha: bema asili, ema Ilaidia da esala: ba: ya adoi. Amalu, A:iha: be da Ilaidia gousa: musa: asi.
17 When Ahab saw Elijah, Ahab said to him, “Is that you, you troubler of Israel?”
A: iha: be da Ilaidia ba: beba: le, amane sia: i, “Agoea esalebe! Di da Isala: ili soge ganodini bidi hamosu dunu oda ilia hamosu bagadewane baligisa.”
18 He answered, “I have not troubled Israel, but you and your father’s house, in that you have forsaken the LORD’s commandments and you have followed the Baals.
Ilaidia da bu adole i, “Na da bidi hamosu dunudafa hame. Be di amola dia ada alia da bidi hamosu dunu. Di da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i amo mae nabawane hamone, ogogole ‘gode’ Ba: ile agoaila hahamoi amoma nodone sia: ne gadolala.
19 Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel to Mount Carmel, and four hundred fifty of the prophets of Baal, and four hundred of the prophets of the Asherah, who eat at Jezebel’s table.”
Waha Isala: ili dunu huluane na gousa: musa: , Gamele Goumi amoga misa: ne sia: ma. Ilia da Ba: ile balofede dunu 450 agoane amola ogogole uda ‘gode’ Asila ea balofede dunu 400 agoane amo da hina bagade uda Yesebele ea fuligala: be, amo huluane oule misa.”
20 So Ahab sent to all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together to Mount Carmel.
Amaiba: le, A:iha: be da Isala: ili dunu huluane amola Ba: ile balofede dunu huluane, Gamele Goumia gilisima: ne sia: i.
21 Elijah came near to all the people, and said, “How long will you waver between the two sides? If the LORD is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him.” The people didn’t say a word.
Ilaidia da dunu huluanema asili, amane sia: i, “Dilia da habo wali seda ‘gode’ aduna elama fa: no bobogemusa: dadawa: loma: bela: ? Dilia da Hina Gode da Godedafa dawa: sea, Ema nodone sia: ne gadoma! Be dilia da Ba: ile da Godedafa dawa: sea, ema nodone sia: ne gadoma!” Be Isala: ili dunu da sia: afae hamedafa sia: i.
22 Then Elijah said to the people, “I, even I only, am left as a prophet of the LORD; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred fifty men.
Amalalu, Ilaidia da amane sia: i, “Na fawane da Hina Gode Ea balofede dunudafa esala. Be Ba: ile ea balofede dunu da 450 agoane esala.
23 Let them therefore give us two bulls; and let them choose one bull for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under; and I will dress the other bull, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under it.
Bulamagau gawali aduna gaguli misa! Ba: ile balofede dunu ilia da afae lale, medole, dasega: le, lalu habei da: iya ligisima. Be lalu mae ulagima. Na da bulamagau eno amoga ilia hamoi amo defele hamomu.
24 You call on the name of your god, and I will call on the LORD’s name. The God who answers by fire, let him be God.” All the people answered, “What you say is good.”
Amalu, Ba: ile balofede dunu da ilia ‘gode’ma sia: ne gadoma: ma. Amola na da Hina Godema sia: ne gadomu. Amalu, nowa ea hahamoi lalu nene gala: be ba: sea, amo ilia ‘gode’ da Godedafa esalebe dawa: mu.” Dunu huluane da amo hamomu hou hahawane nababeba: le, wele sia: i.
25 Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, “Choose one bull for yourselves, and dress it first, for you are many; and call on the name of your god, but put no fire under it.”
Ilaidia da Ba: ile balofede dunuma amane sia: i, “Dilia da dunu bagohameba: le, dili hidadea, bulamagau gawali lale, hahamoma. Dilia ‘gode’ma sia: ne gadoma, be lalu habei mae ulagisima.”
26 They took the bull which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, “Baal, hear us!” But there was no voice, and nobody answered. They leaped about the altar which was made.
Ilia da bulamagau gawali amo da ilima gaguli misi, amo lale hahamoi. Amalu, Ba: ilema sia: ne gadolalobawane, esomogoa doaga: i. Ilia da amane wele sia: i, “Ba: ile! Ba: ile! Ninia sia: ne gadobe nabima: i!” Amola, ilia da oloda ilia gagili, amo sisiga: le, gagafodudalu. Be amomane, Ba: ile da ilima dabe hame adole i.
27 At noon, Elijah mocked them, and said, “Cry aloud, for he is a god. Either he is deep in thought, or he has gone somewhere, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he sleeps and must be awakened.”
Esomogoadafa, Ilaidia da iliba: le lalasogole oufesega: nu. E amane sia: i, “Bu ha: giwane sia: ne gadoma! E da ‘gode’! E da olobolala ganumu o baeya sowana ganumu. O e da logoba: le asi ganumu. O e da golai diala ganumu. Amo didilisima!”
28 They cried aloud, and cut themselves in their way with knives and lances until the blood gushed out on them.
Amaiba: le, balofede dunu da bu ha: giwane sia: ne gadole amola ilia hou defele, ili gobele gobihei amola nusi amoga fofa: ginanobawane, maga: me da a: idafia: i.
29 When midday was past, they prophesied until the time of the evening offering; but there was no voice, no answer, and nobody paid attention.
Ilia da dadoula sisiga: sa lafia: lalobawane, baloga doaga: i. Be dabe adole iasu sia: da afae hame nabi.
30 Elijah said to all the people, “Come near to me!”; and all the people came near to him. He repaired the LORD’s altar that had been thrown down.
Amalalu, Ilaidia da dunu huluanema amane sia: i, “Nama gadenena misa.” Ilia da Ilaidiama gilisila misi. E da Hina Gode Ea oloda mugului, amo bu hahamoi.
31 Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the LORD’s word came, saying, “Israel shall be your name.”
E da gele fagoyale gala lai. Amo gele afae afae da Ya: igobe (Hina Gode da ema Isala: ili dio asuli) amo ea mano afae afae dawa: ma: ne, lai.
32 With the stones he built an altar in the LORD’s name. He made a trench around the altar large enough to contain two seahs of seed.
Amo gelega, e da Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu oloda bu hahamoi. Oloda sisiga: le, e da hano logo amoga hano soga: sali amo nabai defei da 15 lida.
33 He put the wood in order, and cut the bull in pieces and laid it on the wood. He said, “Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering and on the wood.”
Amalu, e da oloda da: iya, lalu habei ligisili, bulamagau dasega: le, fofonobone dadamuni ligisi. E amane sia: i, “Dilia da osoboga hamoi ofodo bagade biyaduyale amoga hano dili, amo bulamagau gobele salimu amo da: iya amola lalu habei da: iya sogaga: la: ma.” Ilia da amo defele hamoi.
34 He said, “Do it a second time;” and they did it the second time. He said, “Do it a third time;” and they did it the third time.
E amane sia: i, “Bu hamoma!” Ilia da amane hamoi. E amane sia: i, “Bu hamoma!” Amola ilia da amane hamoi.
35 The water ran around the altar; and he also filled the trench with water.
Hano da gudu sa: ili, oloda sisiga: le, hano logo nabalesi.
36 At the time of the evening offering, Elijah the prophet came near and said, “LORD, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word.
37 Hear me, LORD, hear me, that this people may know that you, LORD, are God, and that you have turned their heart back again.”
Baloga, ilia gobele salasu hamoma: ne ilegebe, balofede Ilaidia da oloda amoga asili, amane sia: ne gadoi, “Hina Gode! A: ibalaha: me amola Aisage amola Ya: igobe ilia Gode! Di da Isala: ili Godedafa, amola na da Dia hawa: hamosu dunu, amola na wali hamoi da Dia hamoma: ne sia: beba: le hamoi, Isala: ili dunu da amo huluane dafawaneyale dawa: ma: ne, Dia na adole ba: su sia: ne gadosu amoma dabe adole ima. Hina Gode! Nama bu adole ima. Isala: ili dunu da Di, Hina Gode, da Godedafa amola Di da ili Dima bu hiougilala, amo ilia da dawa: ma: ne, na sia: ne gadosu amo dabe adole ima.”
38 Then the LORD’s fire fell and consumed the burnt offering, the wood, the stones, and the dust; and it licked up the water that was in the trench.
Hina Gode da lalu gudu sanasi. Lalu da gobele salasu bulamagau amola lalu habei amola gele amola osobo huluane nene dagoi. Amola hano amo hano logo ganodini dialu amo huluane hafoga: i dagoi ba: i.
39 When all the people saw it, they fell on their faces. They said, “The LORD, he is God! The LORD, he is God!”
Dunu huluane da amo hou ba: beba: le, ilisu osoba gala: la sa: i. Ilia amane wele sia: i, “Hina Gode da Godedafa! Hina Gode Hisu da Godedafa!”
40 Elijah said to them, “Seize the prophets of Baal! Don’t let one of them escape!” They seized them; and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and killed them there.
Ilaidia da amane hamoma: ne sia: i, “Ba: ile balofede dunu gagulaliligima! Dunu afae da maedafa hobeama: ma!” Isala: ili dunu da Ba: ile balofede dunu huluane gagulaliligi. Amola Ilaidia da ili oule, Gaisione Hanoga sa: ili, ili huluane fane lelegei.
41 Elijah said to Ahab, “Get up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of abundance of rain.”
Amalalu, Ilaidia da hina bagade A: iha: bema amane sia: i, “Waha ha: i namasa! Na da gibu bagade olamabe naba!”
42 So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he bowed himself down on the earth, and put his face between his knees.
A: iha: be da ha: i na ahoanoba, Ilaidia da Gamele Goumi da: iya heda: le, beguduli, osoboga muguni adoba dialuma bugi.
43 He said to his servant, “Go up now and look toward the sea.” He went up and looked, then said, “There is nothing.” He said, “Go again” seven times.
E da ea hawa: hamosu dunuma amane sia: i, “Di da asili, hano wayabo bagade amoga ba: le gama!” Ea hawa: hamosu dunu da amo ba: la asili, bu misini, amane sia: i, “Na da liligi hamedafa ba: i.” Ilaidia da ema fesuale agoane ba: la afufuma: ne sia: i.
44 On the seventh time, he said, “Behold, a small cloud, like a man’s hand, is rising out of the sea.” He said, “Go up, tell Ahab, ‘Get ready and go down, so that the rain doesn’t stop you.’”
E da afufulala fesu amoga ba: la asi, bu misini, amane sia: i, “Na da mobi fonobahadi, dunu ea lobo agoai, amo baligili hame, be agoai fawane hano wayabo gudunini gado heda: lebe ba: i.” Ilaidia da ea hawa: hamosu dunuma amane sia: i, “hina bagade A: iha: bema asili, ea masunu logo gibuga ga: sa: besa: le, ea ‘sa: liode’ lale, amo da: iya fila heda: le, hi diasua hedolo masa: ne sia: ma.”
45 In a little while, the sky grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel.
Fonobahadi aligili, mu da mobiga gasili gala: i ba: i, amola fo da muni misi amola gibu bagade da muni sa: i. A: iha: be da ea ‘sa: liode’ da: iya fila heda: le, Yeseliele moilai bai bagadega buhagi.
46 The LORD’s hand was on Elijah; and he tucked his cloak into his belt and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.
Hina Bagade Gode Ea gasa da misini, Ilaidiama doaga: i. Ilaidia da ea abula hina: bulu ga: sua ha: gidafa idiniginanu, A:iha: be fa: nonesilalu, ea bisili hehenaiya ahoana, Yeseliele amoma doaga: i.
