1 Wa 19
1 Wa Akab rakonte Jezabèl, madanm li, tou sa Eli te fè, ki jan li te touye tout pwofèt Baal yo.
And he told Ahab to Jezebel all that he had done Elijah and all that he had killed all the prophets with the sword.
2 Jezabèl voye yon misyon bay Eli. Li voye di l': -Se ou, se mwen! Se pou bondye yo ban m' pi gwo pinisyon ki genyen si denmen lè konsa mwen pa fè ou tou sa ou te fè pwofèt yo.
And she sent Jezebel a messenger to Elijah saying thus may they do! [the] gods and thus may they add! if about this time tomorrow I will make life your like [the] life of one from them.
3 Eli vin pè. Li kouri met deyò pou l' sove lavi li. Li pran domestik li avè l', l' ale lavil Bècheba nan peyi Jida. Li kite domestik li a la.
And he saw and he arose and he went to life his and he came Beer Sheba which [belongs] to Judah and he left servant his there.
4 Eli menm mache tout yon jounen nan dezè a. Lè li rete, l' al chita anba lonbray yon ti pye bayawonn. Li mande lanmò, li di: -M' pa kapab ankò, Seyè! Pito m' mouri kont fini. M' pa pi bon pase zansèt mwen yo.
And he he went in the wilderness a journey of a day and he came and he sat under a broom plant (one *Q(k)*) and he asked self his to die and he said - enough now O Yahweh take life my for not [am] good I more than ancestors my.
5 Li lage kò l' anba pye bayawonn lan. Dòmi pran l'. Antan l' nan dòmi an, yon zanj vin souke l', li di l' konsa: -Leve ou manje!
And he lay down and he slept under a broom plant one and there! this an angel [was] touching him and he said to him arise eat.
6 Eli voye je l' gade bò kote l', li wè yon ti pen plat tankou sa yo kwit sou chabon dife ak yon krich dlo bò tèt li. Li manje, li bwè. Lèfini, li kouche, li dòmi ankò.
And he looked and there! [was] [the] place of head his a bread cake of hot coals and a jug of water and he ate and he drank and he returned and he lay down.
7 Zanj Seyè a tounen yon dezyèm fwa, li souke Eli, li leve l', li di l': -Leve ou manje, paske vwayaj la pral long anpil pou ou.
And he returned [the] angel of Yahweh - a second [time] and he touched him and he said arise eat for [is too] great for you the journey.
8 Eli leve, li manje, li bwè. Manje a ba li kont fòs kouraj pou li mache pandan karant jou, karant nwit jouk li rive sou mòn Orèb, mòn Bondye a.
And he arose and he ate and he drank and he went in [the] strength of - the food that forty day[s] and forty night[s] to [the] mountain of God Horeb.
9 Lè li rive, li antre nan yon gwòt, li pase nwit lan la. Seyè a pale ak Eli ankò, li di li: -Eli, sa w'ap fè la a?
And he went there into the cave and he spent [the] night there and there! [the] word of Yahweh [was] to him and he said to him what? [is] to you here O Elijah.
10 Eli reponn: -Seyè, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa, mwen renmen ou anpil, mwen pa ka wè sa pèp Izrayèl la ap fè ou la. Li pa kenbe kontra li te pase avè ou la, li kraze lotèl ou yo, li touye tout pwofèt ou yo. Se mwen menm sèl ki rete. Men y'ap chache touye m'.
And he said certainly I have been zealous for Yahweh - [the] God of hosts for they have forsaken covenant your [the] people of Israel altars your they have torn down and prophets your they have killed with the sword and I am left I to alone me and they have sought life my to take away it.
11 Seyè a di li: -Soti, vin kanpe devan Seyè a sou tèt mòn lan. M' pral pase! Seyè a vin ap pase. Yon gwo van vin leve, li pran vante byen fò, li fann mòn yo, li pete wòch yo devan Seyè a. Men Seyè a pa t' nan van an. Lè van an kase, tè a pran tranble, men Seyè a pa t' nan tranbleman tè a.
And he said go out and you will stand on the mountain before Yahweh and there! Yahweh [was] passing by and a wind great and strong [was] tearing mountains and breaking rocks before Yahweh not [was] in the wind Yahweh and [was] after the wind an earthquake not [was] in the earthquake Yahweh.
12 Lè tè a sispann tranble, te gen yon dife, men Seyè a pa t' nan dife a. Apre dife a, yon ti bri tou piti fèt, yon ti briz tou fèb vin ap soufle.
And [was] after the earthquake a fire not [was] in the fire Yahweh and [was] after the fire a sound of a whisper soft.
13 Lè Eli tande l', li kouvri tèt li ak gwo rad li, li soti, li kanpe devan gwòt la. Li tande yon vwa ki di l': -Eli, sa w'ap fè isit la?
And it was - when heard Elijah and he wrapped face his in cloak his and he went out and he stood [the] entrance of the cave and there! [was] to him a voice and it said what? [is] to you here O Elijah.
14 Eli reponn: -Seyè, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, mwen renmen ou anpil, mwen pa ka wè sa pèp Izrayèl la ap fè ou la. Li pa kenbe kontra li te pase avè ou la. Li kraze lotèl ou yo. Li touye tout pwofèt ou yo. Se mwen menm sèl ki rete. Men y'ap chache touye m'.
And he said certainly I have been zealous for Yahweh - [the] God of hosts for they have forsaken covenant your [the] people of Israel altars your they have torn down and prophets your they have killed with the sword and I am left I to alone me and they have sought life my to take away it.
15 Seyè a di li: -Ale non! Pran menm wout ou te pase nan dezè a pou vini isit la, tounen lavil Damas. W'a antre lavil Damas, w'a pran Azayèl, w'a mete l' wa peyi Siri nan non mwen.
And he said Yahweh to him go go back to way your [the] wilderness of towards Damascus and you will go and you will anoint Hazael to king over Aram.
16 Apre sa, w'a ale lakay Jeou, pitit gason Nimchi a, w'a mete l' wa peyi Izrayèl nan non mwen. Lèfini, w'a pran Elize, pitit gason Chafat, moun lavil Abèl Meola a, w'a mete l' apa nan non mwen pou l' sèvi pwofèt nan plas ou.
And Jehu [the] son of Nimshi you will anoint to king over Israel and Elisha [the] son of Shaphat from Abel Meholah you will anoint to prophet in place of you.
17 Tout moun ki va chape anba men Azayèl va tonbe anba men Jeou. Tout moun ki va chape anba men Jeou va tonbe anba men Elize.
And it will be the [one who] escapes from [the] sword of Hazael he will put to death Jehu and the [one who] escapes from [the] sword of Jehu he will put to death Elisha.
18 Men m'ap kite sètmil (7.000) moun vivan nan peyi Izrayèl la. Se moun ki pa t' mete ajenou devan Baal pou sèvi li, ni ki pa t' bo estati li yo.
And I will leave among Israel seven thousand all the knees which not they have bowed down to Baal and every mouth which not it has kissed it.
19 Eli pati. Li jwenn Elize, pitit gason Chafat la, ki t'ap raboure yon jaden avèk douz pè bèf. Elize t'ap raboure dènye pòsyon tè a ak douzyèm pè bèf la lè Eli pwoche bò kote l'. Eli wete gwo rad ki te sou li a, li voye l' sou Elize.
And he went from there and he found Elisha [the] son of Shaphat and he [was] plowing two [plus] ten pairs [were] before him and he [was] with two [plus] the ten and he passed on Elijah to him and he threw cloak his to him.
20 Menm lè a, Elize kite bèf li yo, li kouri dèyè Eli. Li di l' konsa: -Kite m' al di manman m' ak papa m' orevwa anvan. Apre sa m'a swiv ou. Eli reponn li: -Ou mèt tounen tounen ou. M' pa rete ou, mwen menm! Kisa m' fè ou la a?
And he left the ox[en] and he ran after Elijah and he said I want to kiss please father my and mother my and I will go after you and he said to him go turn back for what? have I done to you.
21 Elize kite Eli, li tounen tounen l', li pran yon pè bèf, li touye yo. Li pran bwa jouk yo, li limen dife, li kwit vyann lan. Li bay moun ki te avè l' yo pou yo manje. Lèfini, li pati al jwenn Eli, li rete avè l'.
And he turned back from after him and he took [the] pair of the ox[en] and he sacrificed it and with [the] equipment of the ox[en] he cooked them the flesh and he gave [it] to the people and they ate and he arose and he went after Elijah and he served him.
