Fiawo 1 17
1 Azɔ la Eliya, Tisbitɔ si tso Tisbi le Gilead la va gblɔ na Ahab be, “Meta Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe agbe, ame si mesubɔna la be zãmu loo alo tsi madza le ƒe siwo gbɔna la me o negbe le nye nya nu ko.”
And Elie `of Thesbi, of the dwelleris of Galaad, seide to Achab, The Lord God of Israel lyueth, in whos siyt Y stonde, deeu and reyn schal not be in these yeeris, no but bi the wordis of my mouth.
2 Yehowa gblɔ na Eliya bena,
And the word of the Lord was maad to hym, and seide,
3 “Yi ɣedzeƒe eye nàbe ɖe Kerit tɔʋu la to, le afi si tɔʋu sia de nu Yɔdan tɔsisi la me le la ƒe ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo.
Go thou awey fro hennus, and go ayens the eest, and be thou hid in the stronde of Carith, which is ayens Jordan,
4 No tsi le tɔʋu la me eye nàɖu nu si akpaviãwo atsɔ vɛ na wò elabena mana be woatsɔ nuɖuɖu vɛ na wo.”
and there thou schalt drynke of the stronde; and Y comaundide to crowis, that thei feede thee there.
5 Ale Eliya wɔ nu si Yehowa ɖo nɛ eye wònɔ tɔʋu la to.
Therfor he yede, and dide bi the word of the Lord; and whanne he hadde go, he sat in the stronde of Carith, which is ayens Jordan.
6 Akpaviãwo tsɔa abolo kple lã vanɛ nɛ gbe sia gbe, ŋdi kple fiẽ eye wònoa tsi le tɔʋu la me.
And crowis baren to hym breed and fleisch eerli; in lijk maner in the euentid; and he drank of the stronde.
7 Ke le ɣeyiɣi aɖe megbe la, tɔʋu la mie elabena tsi megadza ɖe anyigba la dzi kpɔ o.
Forsothe after summe daies the stronde was dried; for it hadde not reynede on the erthe.
8 Yehowa ƒe nya va na Eliya bena,
Therfor the word of the Lord was maad to hym, and seide,
9 “Yi Sidon ƒe Zarefat enumake eye nànɔ afi ma. Megblɔ na ahosi aɖe le afi ma be wòana nuɖuɖu wò.”
Rise thou, and go in to Serepta of Sydoneis, and thou schalt dwelle there; for Y comaundide to a womman, widewe there, that sche feede thee.
10 Ale wòyi ɖe Zarefat. Esi wòva ɖo Zarefat ƒe agbo nu la, ahosi aɖe nɔ afi ma, nɔ nake fɔm. Eyɔe eye wòbiae be, “Àku tsi vi aɖe ɖe kplu me vɛ nam manoa?”
He roos, and yede in to Sarepta of Sidoneis; and whanne he hadde come to the yate of the citee, a womman widewe gaderynge stickis apperide to hym; and he clepide hir, and seide to hir, Yyue thou to me a litil of water in a vessel, that Y drynke.
11 Esi ahosi la trɔ yina be yeaku tsi la vɛ nɛ la, Eliya yɔe, gblɔ nɛ be, “Nyo dɔ me nàtsɔ abolo aɖe hã kpe ɖe tsi la ŋu vɛ nam.”
And whanne sche yede to bringe, he criede bihynde hir bac, and seide, Y biseche, bringe thou to me also a mussel of breed in thin hond.
12 Ahosi la ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Meta Yehowa, wò Mawu la ƒe agbe be, abolo aɖeke mele asinye o negbe wɔ asiʋlo ɖeka si le wɔze me kple ami sue aɖe si le amigoe me ko. Mele nake ʋɛ siawo fɔm atsɔ ayi aƒe mee ne maɖa nu nye kple vinye ŋutsu míaɖu eye míaku.”
And sche answeride, Thi Lord God lyueth, for Y haue no breed, no but as myche of mele in a pot, as a fist may take, and a litil of oile in a vessel; lo! Y gadere twei stickis, that Y entre, and make it to me, and to my sone, that we ete and die.
13 Eliya gblɔ nɛ be, “Mègavɔ̃ o; yi aƒe me eye nàwɔ abe ale si nègblɔ ene gake gbã la, ƒo abolo sue aɖe kple wɔ la ƒe ɖe eye nàtsɔe vɛ nam. Emegbe nàɖa nane na wò ŋutɔ kple viwò ŋutsu la
And Elie seide to hir, Nyle thou drede, but go, and make as thou seidist; netheles make thou firste to me of that litil mele a litil loof, bakun vndur the aischis, and brynge thou to me; sotheli thou schalt make afterward to thee and to thi sone.
14 elabena ale Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye si, ‘Wɔ mavɔ le wò wɔze me o eye ami hã mavɔ le wò amigoe me o va se ɖe esime Yehowa nana tsi nadza ɖe anyigba dzi.’”
Forsothe the Lord God of Israel seith thes thingis, The pot of mele schal not faile, and the vessel of oile schal not be abatid, til to the dai in which the Lord schal yyue reyn on the face of erthe.
15 Ale ahosi la wɔ nu si Eliya gblɔ nɛ eye Eliya kple eya kple via siaa kpɔa nuɖuɖu tso wɔ la kple ami la me ŋkeke ale si wohiã wo.
And sche yede, and dide bi the word of Elie; and he eet, and sche, and hir hows.
16 Elabena wɔ mevɔ le wɔze la me eye ami hã mevɔ le amigoe la me o le nya si Yehowa gblɔ to Eliya dzi la nu.
And fro that dai the pot of mele failide not, and the vessel of oile was not abatid, bi the word of the Lord, which he hadde spoke in the hond of Elie.
17 Le ɣeyiɣi aɖewo megbe la, nyɔnu si nye aƒea nɔ la ƒe viŋutsu dze dɔ. Dɔ la sesẽ nɛ tso ŋkeke me yi ŋkeke me eye mlɔeba la, eƒe gbɔgbɔ nu tso.
Forsothe it was doon aftir these wordis, the sone of a womman hosewijf was sijk, and the sijknesse was moost strong, so that breeth dwellide not in hym.
18 Egblɔ na Eliya be, “Oo Mawu ƒe ame, nya kae le asiwò ɖe ŋutinye? Ɖe nèva be yeaɖo ŋku nye nu vɔ̃wo dzi nam eye nàwu vinyeŋutsua?”
Therfor sche seide to Elie, What to me and to thee, thou man of God? Entridist thou to me, that my wickidnessis schulden be remembrid, and that thou schuldist sle my sone?
19 Eliya ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Tsɔ viwò ŋutsuvi la nam.” Exɔe le eƒe abɔwo dome hetsɔe yi eƒe xɔ me le dziƒoxɔ dzi eye wòtsɔe mlɔ eƒe aba dzi.
And Elie seide to hir, Yyue thi sone to me. And he took `that sone fro hir bosum, and bar in to the soler, where he dwellide; and he puttide hym on his bed.
20 Tete wòdo ɣli na Yehowa be, “Oo Yehowa, nye Mawu, ɖe nèhe dzɔgbevɔ̃e va ahosi si gbɔ mele la hã dzi eye nèna via ŋutsuvi la kua?”
And he criede to the Lord, and seide, My Lord God, whether thou hast turmentid also the widewe, at whom Y am susteyned in al maner, that thou killidist hir sone?
21 Eliya dra ɖe ɖevi la dzi zi etɔ̃ eye wòdo ɣli na Yehowa, be, “Oo, Yehowa, nye Mawu, na be ɖevi sia ƒe agbe natrɔ ava eme!”
He sprad abrood hym silf, and mat on the child bi thre tymes; and he cryede to the Lord, and seide, My Lord God, Y biseche, the soule of this child turne ayen in to the entrailis of hym.
22 Yehowa se Eliya ƒe gbedodoɖa, ale ɖevi la ƒe gbɔgbɔ gbugbɔ va eme eye wòtsi agbe.
The Lord herde the vois of Elie, and the soule of the child turnede ayen with ynne hym, and he lyuede ayen.
23 Eliya kɔ ɖevi la eye wòdo go kplii tso xɔ la me yi anyigba eye wòtsɔe na dadaa gblɔ be, “Kpɔ ɖa, viwò ŋutsu la le agbe!”
And Elie took the child, and puttide hym doun of the soler in to the lower hows, and bitook him to his modir; and he seide to hir, Lo! thi sone lyueth.
24 Ahosi la gblɔ nɛ be, “Azɔ la, menya be Mawu ƒe amee nènye eye Yehowa ƒe nya si do tso wò nu me la nye nyateƒe.”
And the womman seide to Elie, Now in this Y haue knowe, that thou art the man of God, and the word of God is soth in thi mouth.
