1 Kings 18
1 Aftir many daies the word of the Lord was maad to Elie, in the thridde yeer, and seide, Go, and schewe thee to Achab, that Y yyue reyn on the face of erthe.
Prošlo je mnogo vremena i riječ Jahvina bi upravljena treće godine Iliji: “Idi, pokaži se Ahabu, jer želim pustiti kišu na lice zemlje.”
2 Therfor Elie yede to schewe hym silf to Achab; forsothe greet hungur was in Samarie.
I ode Ilija da se pokaže Ahabu. Kako je glad u Samariji bivala teža,
3 And Achab clepide Abdie, dispendere, ether stiward, of his hows; forsothe Abdie dredde greetli the Lord God of Israel.
pozva Ahab dvorskog upravitelja Obadiju. Taj se Obadija veoma bojao Jahve;
4 For whanne Jezabel killide the prophetis of the Lord, he took an hundrid prophetis, and hidde hem, bi fifties and fifties, in dennes, and fedde hem with breed and watir.
jer kad je Izebela poubijala proroke Jahvine, on je uzeo stotinu proroka i sakrio ih po pedeset u jednu spilju, gdje ih je hranio kruhom i pojio vodom.
5 Therfor Achab seide to Abdie, Go thou in to the lond, to alle wellis of watris, and in to alle valeis, if in hap we moun fynde gras, and saue horsis and mulis; and werk beestis perische not outirli.
I reče Ahab Obadiji: “Hajde, obići ćemo svu zemlju, sve izvore i sve potoke, možda ćemo naći trave da sačuvamo u životu konje i mazge i da nam ne propadne stoka.”
6 Therfor thei departiden the cuntreis to hem silf, that thei schulden cumpasse tho; Achab yede bi o weye, and Abdie yede bi another weie, `bi hym silf.
Podijelili su zemlju koju će pretražiti: Ahab je sam otišao jednim putem, a Obadija je pošao sam drugim putem.
7 And whanne Abdie was in the weie, Elie mette hym; and whanne he hadde knowe Elie, he felde on his face, and seide, Whethir thou art my lord Elie?
I kad je Obadija bio na putu, eto mu u susret Ilije; poznavši ga, pade ničice i reče: “Jesi li to ti, gospodaru Ilija!”
8 To whom he answeride, Y am. And Elie seide, Go thou, and seie to thi lord, Elie is present.
On mu odgovori: “Ja sam! Idi i reci svome gospodaru: 'Evo Ilije!'”
9 And Abdie seide, What `synnede Y, for thou bitakist me in the hond of Achab, that he sle me?
Odgovori mu Obadija: “Što sam sagriješio te slugu svojega predaješ u ruke Ahabu da me ubije?
10 Thi Lord God lyueth, for no folk ethir rewme is, whidur my lord, sekynge thee, sente not; and whanne alle men answeriden, He is not here, he chargide greetli alle rewmes and folkis, for thou were not foundun; and now thou seist to me,
Živoga mi Jahve, tvoga Boga, nema naroda ili kraljevstva kamo moj gospodar nije slao da te traže. I kad su mu rekli: 'Nema ga!' zakleo je kraljevstvo i narod što te nisu našli.
11 Go, and seie to thi lord, Elie is present.
I sada mi naređuješ: 'Idi, reci svome gospodaru: Evo Ilije!'
12 And whanne Y schal departe fro thee, the Spirit of the Lord schal bere thee awey in to a place which Y knowe not; and Y schal entre, and `Y schal telle to Achab, and he schal not fynde thee, and he schal sle me; forsothe thi seruaunt dredith the Lord fro his yong childhod.
Ali kad ja odem od tebe, Duh Jahvin odnijet će te ne znam kamo, a ja ću doći i obavijestiti Ahaba. Pa kad te ne nađe, ubit će me! A tvoj se sluga boji Jahve od mladosti svoje!
13 Whether it is not schewid to thee, my lord, what Y dide, whanne Jesabel killide the prophetis of the Lord, that Y hidde of the prophetis of the Lord an hundrid men, bi fifty and bi fifti, in dennes, and Y fedde hem with breed and watir?
Zar nije poznato mome gospodaru što sam učinio kad je ono Izebela poubijala proroke Jahvine? Sakrio sam stotinu proroka, po pedeset u jednu spilju, i kruhom ih uzdržavao i vodom.
14 And now thou seist, Go, and seie to thi lord, Elie is present, that he sle me.
I sada ti naređuješ: 'Idi, reci svome gospodaru: Evo Ilije!' Pa on će me ubiti!”
15 And Elie seide, The Lord of oostis lyueth, bifor whos siyt Y stonde, for to dai Y schal appere to hym.
Ilija mu odgovori: “Živoga mi Jahve Sebaota, komu služim, još ću mu se danas pokazati.”
16 Therfor Abdie yede in to the metyng of Achab, and schewide to hym; and Achab cam in to the meetyng of Elie.
Obadija pođe u susret Ahabu i donese mu vijest, a Ahab pođe u susret Iliji.
17 And whanne he hadde seyn Elie, he seide, Whether thou art he, that disturblist Israel?
Kad Ahab ugleda Iliju, reče mu: “Jesi li ti onaj koji upropašćuješ Izraela?”
18 And he seide, Not Y disturble Israel, but thou, and the hows of thi fadir, whiche han forsake the comaundementis of the Lord, and sueden Baalym, `disturbliden Israel.
Ilija odgovori: “Ne upropašćujem ja Izraela, nego ti i tvoja obitelj, jer ste ostavili Jahvu, a ti si sljedbenik Baala.
19 Netheles now sende thou, and gadere to me al Israel, in the hil of Carmele, and foure hundrid and fifti prophetis of Baal, and foure hundrid prophetis of woodis, that eten of the table of Jezabel.
Sada sakupi sav Izrael preda me na gori Karmelu i četiri stotine pedeset proroka Baalovih koji jedu za stolom Izebelinim.”
20 Achab sente to alle the sones of Israel, and gaderide prophetis in the hil of Carmele.
Ahab pozva sve sinove Izraelove i sakupi proroke na gori Karmelu.
21 Forsothe Elie neiyede to al the puple of Israel, and seide, Hou long halten ye in to twey partis? If the Lord is God, sue ye hym; forsothe if Baal is God, sue ye hym. And the puple answeride not o word to hym.
Ilija pristupi svemu narodu i reče: “Dokle ćete hramati na obje strane? Ako je Jahve Bog, slijedite ga; ako je Baal, slijedite njega.” A narod mu nije ništa odgovorio.
22 And Elie seide eft to the puple, Y dwellide aloone a prophete of the Lord; sotheli the prophetis of Baal ben foure hundrid and fifti, and the prophetis of woodis ben foure hundrid men.
Ilija nastavi: “Ja sam još jedini ostao kao prorok Jahvin, a Baalovih je proroka četiri stotine i pedeset.
23 Tweyne oxis be youun to us; and chese thei oon oxe, and thei schulen kitte in to gobetis, and schulen putte on trees, but putte thei not fier vndur; and Y schal make the tother oxe in to sacrifice, and Y schal putte on the trees, and Y schal not putte fier vnder.
Dajte nam dva junca. Neka oni izaberu sebi jednoga, neka ga sasijeku i stave na drva, ali neka ne podmeću ognja. Ja ću spremiti drugoga junca i neću podmetati ognja.
24 Clepe ye the name of youre goddis, and Y schal clepe the name of my God; and the God that herith bi fier, be he God. And al the puple answeride, and seide, The resoun is best, `which resoun Elie spak.
Vi zazovite ime svoga boga, a ja ću zazvati ime Jahvino: bog koji odgovori ognjem pravi je Bog.” Sav narod odgovori: “Dobro!”
25 Therfor Elie seide to the prophetis of Baal, Chese ye oon oxe to you, and make ye first, for ye ben the mo; and clepe ye the names of youre goddis, and putte ye not fier vnder.
Potom reče Ilija prorocima Baalovim: “Izaberite sebi jednoga junca i počnite, jer vas je mnogo više. Zazovite ime svoga boga, ali ne stavljajte ognja.”
26 And whanne thei hadden take the oxe, whom Elie yaf to hem, thei maden sacrifice, and clepiden the name of Baal, fro the morewtid `til to myddai, and seiden, Baal, here vs! And no vois was, nether ony that answerd; and thei skippiden ouer the auter, which thei hadden maad.
Oni uzeše junca koji je njima pripao i pripremiše ga. Zazivali su ime Baalovo od jutra do podne govoreći: “O Baale, usliši nas!” Ali nije bilo ni glasa, ni odgovora. I skakahu i prigibahu koljena pred žrtvenikom koji su načinili.
27 And whanne it was thanne myddai, Elie scornede hem, and seide, Crie ye with gretter vois, for Baal is youre god, and in hap he spekith with an other, ethir he is in a herborgerie, ether in weie, ether certis he slepith, that he be reisid.
U podne im se Ilija naruga i reče: “Glasnije vičite, jer on je bog; zauzet je, ili ima posla, ili je na putu; možda spava, pa ga treba probuditi!”
28 Therfor thei crieden with greet vois, and thei kerueden hem silf with knyues and launcetis, bi her custom, til thei weren bisched with blood.
A oni okrenuše vikati još glasnije i parati se noževima i sulicama, kako je u njih običaj, sve dok ih nije oblila krv.
29 Sotheli after that mydday passide, and while thei prophesieden, the tyme cam, in which the sacrifice is wont to be offrid, nether vois was herd `of her goddis, nether ony answeride, nether perceyuede hem preiynge.
Kad je prošlo podne, pali su u bunilo i bjesnjeli sve dok nije bilo vrijeme da se prinese žrtva; ali nije bilo nikakva glasa ni odgovora niti znaka da ih tkogod sluša.
30 Elie seide to al the puple, Come ye to me. And whanne the puple cam to him, he arrayede the auter of the Lord, that was distried.
Tada Ilija reče svemu narodu: “Priđite k meni!” I sav mu narod pristupi. On popravi žrtvenik Jahvin koji bijaše srušen.
31 And he took twelue stonys, bi the noumbre of lynagis of sones of Jacob, to which Jacob the word of the Lord was maad, and seide, Israel schal be thi name.
Ilija uze dvanaest kamenova prema broju plemena sinova Jakova, kome je Bog rekao: “Izrael će biti ime tvoje!”
32 And he bildide an auter of stonys, in the name of the Lord, and he made a ledyng to of watir, `ether a dich, as bi twei litle dichis in the cumpas of the auter.
I sagradi od toga kamenja žrtvenik Imenu Jahvinu i iskopa jarak oko žrtvenika, širok da bi se mogle posijati dvije mjere pšenice.
33 And he dresside trees, and he departide the oxe bi membris, and puttide on the trees,
Složi drva, rasiječe junca i stavi ga na drva.
34 and seide, Fille ye foure pottis with watir, and schede ye on the brent sacrifice, and on the trees. And eft he seide, Also the secounde tyme do ye this. `And thei diden the secounde tyme. And he seide, Do ye the same thing the thridde tyme; and thei diden the thridde tyme.
Tada reče: “Napunite vodom četiri vrča i izlijte na paljenicu i na drva!” Učiniše tako. Zapovjedi im: “Ponovite”, i oni ponoviše. Tada reče: “Učinite i treći put.” Oni tako i treći put.
35 And the watris runnen aboute the auter, and the dich of ledyng to `of watir was fillid.
Voda je tekla oko žrtvenika i jarak se ispunio vodom.
36 And whanne the tyme was thanne, that the brent sacrifice schulde be offrid, Elye the prophete neiyede, and seide, Lord God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, schewe thou to dai that thou art God of Israel, and that Y am thi seruaunt, and haue do alle these wordis bi thi comaundement.
Kad bijaše vrijeme da se prinese žrtva, pristupi prorok Ilija i reče: “Jahve, Bože Abrahamov, Izakov i Izraelov, objavi danas da si ti Bog u Izraelu, da sam ja sluga tvoj i da sam po zapovijedi tvojoj učinio sve ovo.
37 Lord, here thou me; Lord, here thou me; that this puple lerne, that thou art the Lord God, and that thou hast conuertid eft the herte of hem.
Usliši me, Jahve; usliši me, da bi sav ovaj narod znao da si ti, Jahve, Bog i da ćeš ti obratiti njihova srca.”
38 Sotheli fier of the Lord felde doun, and deuouride brent sacrifice, and trees, and stonus, and lickide vp also the poudre, and the water that was in the `leding of water.
I oganj Jahvin pade i proguta paljenicu i drva, kamenje i prašinu, čak i vodu u jarku isuši.
39 And whanne al the puple hadde seyn this, it felde in to his face, and seide, The Lord he is God; the Lord he is God.
Sav narod se uplaši, ljudi padoše ničice i rekoše: “Jahve je Bog! Jahve je Bog!”
40 And Elie seide to hem, Take ye the prophetis of Baal; not oon sotheli ascape of hem. And whanne thei hadden take hem, Elie ledde hem to the stronde of Cison, and killide hem there.
Ilija im reče: “Pohvatajte proroke Baalove da nijedan od njih ne utekne!” I oni ih pohvataše. Ilija ih odvede do potoka Kišona i ondje ih pobi.
41 And Elie seide to Achab, Stie thou, ete, and drynke, for the sown of myche reyn is.
Ilija reče Ahabu: “Idi gore, jedi i pij, jer čujem šumor kiše.”
42 Achab stiede to ete and drynke; forsothe Elie stiede in to the hil of Carmele, and he settide lowli his face to the erthe, bitwixe hise knees;
Dok je Ahab otišao gore da jede i pije, Ilija se popeo na vrh Karmela, prignuo se zemlji i sakrio lice među koljena.
43 and seide to his child, Stie thou, and biholde ayens the see. And whanne he hadde stied, and hadde biholde, he seide, No thing is. And eft Elie seide to hym, Turne thou ayen bi seuene tymes.
Rekao je zatim svome momku: “Idi gore i pogledaj prema moru.” On ode gore, pogleda i reče: “Ništa nema ondje!” Ilija odgovori: “Vrati se sedam puta.”
44 Sotheli in the seuenthe tyme, lo! a litil cloude as the step of a man stiede fro the see. And Elie seide, Stie thou, and seie to Achab, Ioyne thi chare, and go doun, lest the reyn byfor ocupie thee.
Ali sedmoga puta reče momak: “Eno se oblak, malen kao dlan čovječji, diže od mora.” Tada reče Ilija: “Idi, kaži Ahabu: 'Upregni i silazi da te kiša ne uhvati.'”
45 And whanne thei turneden hem hidur and thidur, lo! heuenes weren maad derk, and cloud, and wynd, and greet reyn was maad. Therfor Achab stiede, and yede in to Jezrael;
Odjednom se nebo zamrači od oblaka i vihora i pade jaka kiša. Ahab se pope na kola i odveze u Jizreel.
46 and the hond of the Lord was maad on Elie, and whanne the leendis weren gird, he ran bifor Achab, til he cam in to Jezrael.
Ruka je Jahvina bila nad Ilijom te on, opasavši se, otrča pred Ahabom sve do u blizinu Jizreela.
