< I Na Lii 18 >
1 EIA kekahi, a i na la he nui, hiki mai la ka olelo a ke Akua ia Elia i ke kolu o ka makahiki, i ka i ana mai, E hele, a e hoike ia oe iho ia Ahaba; a e hoohaule au i ka ua maluna o ka ill o ka honua.
And it lasted many days, when the word of the Lord came to Elijah in the third year, saying, Go, show thyself unto Achab; and I will give rain upon the face of the earth.
2 Hele ae la hoi o Elia e hoike ia ia iho ia Ahaba: a he wi nui ma Samaria.
And Elijah went to show himself unto Achab; and the famine was grievous in Samaria.
3 Kahea ae la o Ahaba ia Obadia, ka luna o kona hale. (He weliweli nui ko Obadia ia Iehova:
And Achab called 'Obadiah, who was the superintendent of the house; —(now 'Obadiah feared the Lord greatly;
4 A o keia hoi, i ka pepehi ana o Iezebela i na kaula o Iehova, lawe ae la o Obadia i na kaula hookahi haneri, a huna papakanalima ae ia lakou iloko o ke ana, a hanai ae la ia lakou me ka berena a me ka wai.)
And it happened, when Izebel cut off the prophets of the Lord, that 'Obadiah took a hundred prophets, and hid them fifty each in one cave, and provided them with bread and water; )
5 I mai la hoi o Ahaba ia Obadia, E hele oe ma ka aina i na kumu wai a pau, a me na kahawai a pau; e loaa paha uanei ia kaua ka mauu e malama ai i na lio me na hoki i ola, o hoonele ia kaua iho i na holoholona a pau.
And Achab said unto 'Obadiah, Go through the land, unto all the springs of water, and unto all the brooks, peradventure we may find grass and keep alive horse and mule, that we lose not all the cattle.
6 Mahele ae la hoi laua i ka aina e pau ia i ka heleia. Hele ae la o Ahaba ma kekahi aoao, oia iho no; a hele ae la hoi o Obadia ma kekahi aoao, oia iho no.
So they divided between them the land to pass through it: Achab went one way by himself alone, and 'Obadiah went another way by himself alone.
7 Oiai o Obadia ma ke alanui, aia hoi, halawai mai la me ia o Elia: a ike hoi oia ia ia, moe iho la oia ilalo ke alo, i aku la, O oe no anei keia haku o'u, o Elia?
And as 'Obadiah was on the way, behold, Elijah came toward him; and he recognized him, and fell on his face, and said, Art thou here indeed, my Lord Elijah?
8 I mai la oia ia ia, Owau no: e hele oe e hai aku i ko'u haku, Aia hoi o Elia.
And he said unto him, I am: go, say unto thy Lord, Behold, Elijah is here.
9 I aku la hoi kela, O ke aha la ko'u hewa e haawi ai oe i kau kauwa i ka lima o Ahaba e pepehi mai ia'u?
And he said, What have I sinned, that thou wouldst deliver thy servant into the hand of Achab, to slay me?
10 Ma ke ola ana o Iehova kou Akua, aohe lahuikanaka, aohe aupuni, kahi i hoouna ole aku ai kuu haku e imi ia oe ilaila: a i ka lakou olelo ana, Aole ia, lawe oia i ka hoohiki ana i ke Akua, o ia aupuni a me ia lahuikanaka, i ka loaa ole ana ou ia lakou.
As the Lord thy God liveth, there is not a nation or kingdom whither my Lord hath not sent to seek thee; and when they said, He is not here: he caused that kingdom and nation to take an oath, that no one could find thee.
11 Ano hoi, ke olelo nei oe, E hele e hai aku i ko'u haku, Aia hoi o Elia!
And now thou sayest, Go, say unto thy Lord, Behold, here is Elijah.
12 Eia hoi auanei keia, a hala au mai ou aku nei, e lawe aku ka Uhane o Iehova ia oe ma kahi e ike ole ai au; a hele au e hai aku ia Ahaba, aole hoi e loaa oe ia ia, e pepehi mai auanei oia ia'u; aka, ke weliweli nei au kau kauwa ia Iehova mai ko'u wa kamalii mai.
And it may come to pass, that, when I go from thee, the spirit of the Lord may carry thee whither I know not; and when I come to inform Achab, and he cannot find thee, he will slay me; but I thy servant have feared the Lord from my youth.
13 Aole anei i haiia i ko'u haku ka mea a'u i hana aku ai i ka wa i pepehi ai o Iezebela i na kaula o Iehova, o ko'u huna ana'e i hookahi haneri kanaka o ko Iehova poe kaula, papakanalima ma ke ana, a hanai aku ia lakou me ka berena a me ka wai?
Hath it not been told unto my Lord what I did when Izebel slew the prophets of the Lord, how I hid a hundred men of the prophets of the Lord, fifty each in one cave, and provided them with bread and water?
14 Ano hoi, ke olelo mai nei oe, E hele e hai aku i ko'u haku, Aia hoi o Elia! a e pepehi mai no oia ia'u.
And now thou sayest, Go say to thy lord, Behold, Elijah is here: and he will slay me.
15 I mai la hoi o Elia, Ma ke ola ana o Iehova o na kaua, imua ona e ku nei au, e hoike io aku no au ia'u iho ia ia i keia la.
Then said Elijah, As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whom I have stood, surely today will I show myself unto him.
16 Hele aku la hoi o Obadia e halawai me Ahaba, a hai aku la hoi ia ia; a hele mai la o Ahaba e halawai me Elia.
So 'Ohadiah went to meet Achab, and he told it to him; and Achab went to meet Elijah.
17 Eia kekahi, i ka wa i ike ai o Ahaba ia Elia, i mai la o Ahaba ia ia, O oe no anei ka mea i hoopilikia i ka Iseraela?
And it came to pass, when Achab saw Elijah, that Achab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel?
18 I aku la hoi oia, Aole na'u i hoopilikia i ka Iseraela, aka, nau, a na ka ohana a kou makuakane, i ko oukou haalele ana i na kauoha a Iehova, a ua hahai hoi oe mamuli o na Baala.
And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, through your forsaking the commandments of the Lord, and because thou hast followed the Be'alim.
19 Ano hoi e kii aku oe e hoakoakoa mai i ka Iseraela a pau io'u nei, ma ka mauna Karemela, a me na kaula o Baala eha haneri me kanalima, a me na kaula o na wahi e hoomana'i eha haneri, ka poe e ai ana ma ka papaaina a Iezebela.
And now send, assemble unto me all Israel at Mount Carmel, and the prophets of Ba'al four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the grove four hundred, who eat at the table of Izebel.
20 Pela hoi, kii aku la o Ahaba i na mamo a pau a Iseraela, a hoakoakoa mai la i na kaula ma ka mauna Karemela,
And Achab sent round among all the children of Israel, and he assembled the prophets at Mount Carmel.
21 Hele mai la hoi o Elia i ka poe kanaka a pau, i mai la hoi, Pehea la ka loihi o ko oukou kapekepeke ana iwaena o na manao elua! Ina o Iehova ke Akua, e hahai oukou mamuli ona; aka, ina o Baala, e hahai mamuli ona, Aole olelo aku na kanaka i kekahi olelo ia ia.
And Elijah approached unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between the two opinions? if the Lord be the God, follow him; and if Ba'al—follow him. And the people answered him not a word.
22 Alaila olelo mai la o Elia i ka poe kanaka, Owau nei, owau wale no ka i koe mai he kaula no Iehova; aka o na kaula o Baala, eha haneri kanaka lakou me kanalima.
And Elijah said unto the people, I have been left a prophet of the Lord by myself alone; but the prophets of Ba'al are four hundred and fifty men.
23 He pono no hoi e haawi mai lakou i na bipi elua, ia makou; a e koho ae lakou i kekahi bipi no lakou iho, a e okioki i mau apana, a e kau aku hoi maluna o ka wahie, aole hoi e hahao ae i ke ahi: a e hoomakaukau aku au i kekahi bipi, a e kau ae maluna o ka wahie, aole hoi e hahao ae i ke ahi:
Therefore let there be given unto us two bullocks; and let them choose for themselves the one bullock, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire to it: and I will prepare the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire to it.
24 A e kahea oukou ma ka inoa o ko oukou mau akua, a e kahea wau i ka inoa o Iehova; a o ke Akua nana e haawi mai i ke ahi, oia ke Akua. Olelo aku la ka poe kanaka a pau, i aku la, He pono ka olelo.
And do ye call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of the Lord: and it shall be that the God who answereth by fire, he shall be the [true] God. And all the people answered and said, The proposal is good.
25 Olelo mai la hoi o Elia i na kaula o Baala, E koho oukou i kekahi bipi no oukou iho, a e hoomakaukau mua ae ia. no ka mea, he lehulehu oukou; a e kahea aku i ka inoa o ko oukou mau akua, aole hoi e hahao ae i ke ahi.
And Elijah said unto the prophets of Ba'al, Choose you for yourselves the one bullock, and prepare it first; for ye are the many; and call on the name of your god, but put no fire to it.
26 Lawe ae la lakou i ka bipi i haawiia ia lakou, a hoomakaukau ae la hoi ia, a kahea aku la i ka inoa o Baala, mai kakahiaka a awakea, i ka i ana'ku, E Baala, e hoolohe mai ia makou. Aka, aohe leo; aole hoi mea i hoolohe mai. Lelele ae la lakou ma ke kuahu i hanaia'e.
And they took the bullock which he had given to them, and they prepared it; and they called on the name of Ba'al from morning even until noon, saying, O Ba'al, answer us; but there was no voice, nor any answer: and they danced about the altar which had been made.
27 Eia kekahi, a awakea ae la, hoomaewaewa ae la o Elia ia lakou, i ae la, E kahea me ka leo nui, no ka mea, he akua ia; e kukakuka ana paha ia, e hahai ana paha ia, e hele loihi ana paha, a e hiamoe ana paha ia, e pono hoi ke hoalaia'e.
And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked at them, and said, Call with a loud voice; for he is a god; either he is holding council, or he is busy in some pursuit, or he is on a journey; or peradventure he sleepeth, and may thus awaken.
28 Kahea aku la lakou me ka leo nui, a kokoe iho la lakou ia lakou iho mamuli o ko lakou ano, me na pahi, a me na ihe, a hu mai ke koko maluna iho o lakou.
And they called with a loud voice and cut themselves after their custom with knives and spears, till the blood gushed out over them.
29 Eia hoi kekahi, i ka aui ana'e o ka la, a pule ae lakou a hiki i ka wa e kaumaha ai i ka mohai ahiahi, aohe leo, aole hoi mea hoolohe, aole hoi mea manao mai:
And it came to pass, when midday was past, that they practised their follies until near [the time of] the offering of the evening-sacrifice; but there was neither voice, nor any answer, nor any perceptible sound.
30 Alaila, i mai la o Elia i ka poe kanaka a pau, E hookokoke mai io'u nei; Hookokoke ae la ka poe kanaka a pau io na la. Kukulu hou ae la oia i ke kuahu o Iehova i hiolo ilalo.
And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me: and all the people came near unto him; and he repaired the altar of the Lord that had been torn down.
31 Lawe ae la hoi o Elia i na po haku he umikumamalua, mamuli o ka helu ana o na ohana a na keiki a Iakoba, a ka mea i hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova ia ia, o i ana, E kapaia auanei kou inoa o Iseraela;
And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the Lord was come, saying, Israel shall be thy name.
32 A kukulu ae la oia ia mau pohaku i kuahu no ka inoa o Iehova, a hana iho la hoi i auwaha a puni ke kuahu, o kona nui e hiki ai ke komo na ana hua elua.
And he built of the stones an altar in the name of the Lord; and he made a trench as great as would contain two seahs of seed round about the altar.
33 Hooponopono ae la hoi oia i ka wahie, a okioki ae la i ka bipi i mau apana, a kau ae la maluna o ka wahie; i mai la hoi oia, E hoopiha i na barela eha me ka wai, a e ninini iho maluna iho o ka mohaikuni, a maluna iho hoi o ka wahie.
And he put in order the wood, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid them on the wood,
34 Olelo mai la hoi oia, I elua o ka oukou hana ana. Elua'e la no hoi ka lakou hana ana. I mai la hoi oia, I ekolu hoi o ka oukou hana ana, Ekolu ae la no hoi ka lakou hana ana.
And he said. Fill four jars with water; and they had to pour it on the burnt-offering, and on the wood: and he said, Do it the second time: and they did it the second time: and he said, Do it the third time; and they did it the third time.
35 Kahe ae la hoi ka wai a puni ke kuahu; a hoopiha iho la no hoi oia i ka auwaha i ka wai.
And the water ran round about the altar; and the trench also he filled with water.
36 Eia hoi kekahi, i ka wa i kaumaha ai i ka mohai ahiahi, hookokoke ae la o Elia ke kaula, i aku la hoi, E Iehova ke Akua o Aberahama, a me Isaaka, a me Iseraela, i keia la e hoikeia'i o oe no ke Akua iloko o ka Iseraela, a owau nei kau kauwa, a no kau olelo i hana aku ai au i keia mau mea a pau.
And it came to pass, at [the time of] the offering of the evening-sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, O Lord, God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, this day let it be known that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that at thy word I have done all these things.
37 E hoolohe mai ia'u, e Iehova, e hoolohe mai ia'u, i ike keia lahuikanaka o oe no Iehova ke Akua; a ua hoohuli hou mai hoi oe i ko lakou naau.
Answer me, O Lord, answer me, and let all this people know that thou, O Lord, art the [true] God, and thou wilt [then] have turned their heart back again.
38 Alaila haule mai la ke ahi o Iehova, a hoopau iho la i ka mohaikuni, a me ka wahie, a me na pohaku, a me ka lepo, a miki ae la hoi i ka wai iloko o ka auwaha.
And there fell a fire of the Lord, and consumed the burnt-offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust; and the water also that was in the trench did it lick up.
39 A ike ka poe kanaka a pau, moe iho la lakou ilalo ke alo, i aku la hoi lakou, O Iehova, oia ke Akua; o Iehova, oia ke Akua.
And when all the people saw this, they fell on their faces; and they said, the Lord—he is the God; the Lord—he is the God.
40 I mai la hoi o Elia ia lakou, E hopu i na kaula o Baala, i ole e pakele kekahi. Hopu ae la hoi lakou ia lakou; a alakai ae la o Elia ia lakou i ke kahawai Kisona, a pepehi iho la hoi oia ia lakou malaila.
And Elijah said unto them, Seize the prophets of Ba'al; not one of them must escape; and they seized them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slaughtered them there.
41 I mai la hoi o Elia ia Ahaba, E pii oe, e ai, a e inu; no ka mea, eia ke kamumu ana o ka ua nui.
And Elijah said unto Achab, Go up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain.
42 Pela i pii ai o Ahaba e ai a e inu hoi. Pii ae la hoi o Elia i ke poo o Karemela, moe iho la oia malalo ma ka honua, a hookomo iho la i kona maka iwaena o kona mau kuli.
So Achab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down toward the earth, and put his face between his knees;
43 Alaila olelo mai la oia i kana kauwa, E pii ae oe ano, e nana i kai. Pii ae la hoi oia, a nana aku la, a i aku la, Aole. Olelo mai la hoi oia, E hele hou i ehiku hele ana.
And he said to his servant, Go up, I pray thee, look in the direction of the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, Not the least [is visible]. And he said, Go again, seven times.
44 Eia kekahi i ka hiku o kona hele ana, i aku la oia, Aia hoi, ke hoea mai la he wahi ao uuku me he lima la o ke kanaka, mailoko mai o ke kai. A olelo mai la oia, E hele oe e olelo aku ia Ahaba, E hoomakaukau ae oe, a e iho ae, o paa mai oe i ka ua.
And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there is a little cloud like a man's hand arising out of the sea. And he said, Go up, say unto Achab, Harness up [thy chariot], and come down, that the rain may not detain thee.
45 Eia kekahi, ia manawa no, poele mai la ka lani i na ao a me ka makani, a nui mai la ka ua. Holo kaa ae la o Ahaba a hiki i Iezereela.
And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heavens were blackened with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Achab rode, and went to Yizre'el.
46 Kau mai la hoi ka lima o Iehova maluna o Elia; kaei iho la oia i kona puhaka iho, a holo ae la imua o Ahaba a i ke komo ana i Iezereela.
And the inspiration of the Lord came over Elijah, and he girded up his loins; and he ran before Achab up to the entrance of Yizre'el.
