I Na Lii 19
1 HAI aku la no hoi o Ahaba ia Iezebela i ka mea a pau a Elia i hana'i, a me kona pepehi ana i ka poe kaula me ka pahikaua.
Now Ahab told Jezebel everything that Elijah had done and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword.
2 Alaila hoouna ae la o Iezebela i ka elele io Elia la, i ae la, Pela hoi e hana mai ai na akua ia'u, a hui hou no, ke hoohalike ole aku au i kou ola apopo me neia ka hora, me ke ola o kekahi o lakou.
So Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “May the gods deal with me, and ever so severely, if by this time tomorrow I do not make your life like the lives of those you killed!”
3 A ike oia, ku ae la ia iluna, a holo no kona ola, a hiki i Beereseba no Iuda, a haalele i kana kauwa malaila.
And Elijah was afraid and ran for his life. When he came to Beersheba in Judah, he left his servant there,
4 A hele ae la hoi oia, i ka hele ana o kekahi la, iloko ae o ka waonahele, hele hoi a noho iho malalo iho o ka laau iunipera; a nonoi aku la hoi nona iho e make ia; i aku la hoi, Ua nui; ano hoi, e Iehova, e lawe aku i kuu ola nei; no ka mea, aole oi aku ko'u maikai mamua o ko'u mau makua.
while he himself traveled on a day’s journey into the wilderness. He sat down under a broom tree and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough, LORD,” he said. “Take my life, for I am no better than my fathers.”
5 Moe iho la oia a hiamoe ilalo o ka laau iunipera, aia hoi, ilaila, hoopa mai la kahi anela ia ia, i mai la, E ala, e ai.
Then he lay down under the broom tree and fell asleep. Suddenly an angel touched him and said, “Get up and eat.”
6 Nana ae la hoi ia, aia hoi, kokoke i kona poo, he popopalaoa i hoomoaia maluna o ka lanahu, a he omole wai. Ai iho la ia a inu hoi, a moe hou iho la ilalo.
And he looked around, and there by his head was a cake of bread baked over hot coals, and a jar of water. So he ate and drank and lay down again.
7 Hele hou mai la ka anela o Iehova, o ka lua ia, a hoopa mai ia ia, i mai la hoi, E ala, e ai, no ka mea, he loihi ka hele ana nou.
A second time the angel of the LORD returned and touched him, saying, “Get up and eat, or the journey will be too much for you.”
8 Ala ae la ia, a ai iho la, a inu no hoi, a ma ka ikaika no ua ai la, i hele ai oia i na la he kanaha, a i na po he kanaha, i Horeba, ka mauna o ke Akua.
So he got up and ate and drank. And strengthened by that food, he walked forty days and forty nights until he reached Horeb, the mountain of God.
9 Hiki aku la ia ilaila i ke ana, noho ae la hoi ilaila; aia hoi ka olelo a Iehova ia ia, i mai la hoi oia ia ia, He aha la kau e hana nei maanei, e Elia?
There Elijah entered a cave and spent the night. And the word of the LORD came to him, saying, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
10 I aku la hoi ia, Ua ikaika loa ae nei au mamuli o Iehova ke Akua o ko ka lani; no ka mea, ua haalele no na mamo a Iseraela i kau berita, ua hoohiolo hoi i kou mau kuahu, a ua pepehi no hoi i kou poe kaula me ka pahikaua: a owau wale no ka i koe mai, a ua imi mai lakou i ko'u ola e lawe aku.
“I have been very zealous for the LORD, the God of Hosts,” he replied, “but the Israelites have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I am the only one left, and they are seeking my life as well.”
11 I mai la hoi oia, E puka'e, a e ku maluna o ka mauna imua o Iehova. Aia hoi, maalo ae la o Iehova, a haehae ae la ka makani nui ikaika i na mauna, a wawahi ae la i na pohaku imua o Iehova; aole nae o Iehova iloko o ka makani: a mahope iho o ka makani, he olai; aole nae o Iehova iloko o ke olai.
Then the LORD said, “Go out and stand on the mountain before the LORD. Behold, the LORD is about to pass by.” And a great and mighty wind tore into the mountains and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake.
12 A mahope iho o ke olai, he ahi; aole nae o Iehova iloko o ke ahi; a mahope iho o ke ahi, he kamumu o ke aheahe malie.
After the earthquake there was a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a still, small voice.
13 Eia kekahi, a lohe o Elia, uhi ae la oia i kona maka i kona aahu, a puka ae la oia a ku ma ke komo ana o ke ana. Aia hoi, he leo ia ia, i mai la hoi ia, O ke aha la kau e hana nei maanei, e Elia?
When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his cloak and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Suddenly a voice came to him and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
14 I aku la hoi oia, Ua ikaika loa ae nei au mamuli o Iehova ke Akua o ko ka lani; no ka mea, ua haalele no na mamo a Iseraela i kau berita, ua hoohiolo hoi i kou mau kuahu, a ua pepehi no hoi i kou poe kaula me ka pahikaua; a owau wale no ka i koe mai, a ua imi mai lakou i ko'u ola e lawe aku.
“I have been very zealous for the LORD, the God of Hosts,” he replied, “but the Israelites have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I am the only one left, and they are seeking my life as well.”
15 I mai la hoi o Iehova ia ia, E hele, e hoi ma kou aoao i ka waonahele o Damaseko; a hiki aku oe, e poni aku ia Hazaela i alii maluna o Suria;
Then the LORD said to him, “Go back by the way you came, and go to the Desert of Damascus. When you arrive, you are to anoint Hazael as king over Aram.
16 A o Iehu ke keiki a Nimesi kau e poni ai i alii maluna o ka Iseraela; o Elisai ke keiki a Sapata no Abelamehola kau e poni ai i kaula ma kou hakahaka.
You are also to anoint Jehu son of Nimshi as king over Israel and Elisha son of Shaphat from Abel-meholah to succeed you as prophet.
17 Eia auanei keia, o ka mea pakele i ka pahikaua a Hazela, oia ka Iehu e pepehi ai; a o ka mea pakele i ka pahikaua a Iehu, oia ka Elisai e pepehi ai.
Then Jehu will put to death whoever escapes the sword of Hazael, and Elisha will put to death whoever escapes the sword of Jehu.
18 Aka, Ke hookoe nei au i na tausani ehiku iloko o ka Iseraela, i na kuli a pau i kukuli ole ia Baala, a me na waha a pau i honi ole ia ia.
Nevertheless, I have reserved seven thousand in Israel—all whose knees have not bowed to Baal and whose mouths have not kissed him.”
19 Hele aku la hoi oia mai laila aku, a loaa ia ia o Elisai ke keiki a Sapata, e oopalau ana ia, o na paa bipi kauo he umikumamalua mamua ona, a oia me ka umikumamalua; a maalo ae o Elia ia ia, a kau ae hoi i kona aahu maluna ona.
So Elijah departed and found Elisha son of Shaphat. He was plowing with twelve teams of oxen, and he was with the twelfth team. Elijah passed by him and threw his cloak around him.
20 Haalele ae la hoi oia i na bipi kauo, a hahai aku la mamuli o Elia, i aku la, Ke noi aku nei au e honi au i ko'u makuakane, a me kuu makuwahine, alaila e hahai au mamuli ou. I mai la hoi oia ia ia, E hoi aku, no ka mea, o ke aha la ka'u i hana aku ai ia oe?
So Elisha left the oxen, ran after Elijah, and said, “Please let me kiss my father and mother goodbye, and then I will follow you.” “Go on back,” Elijah replied, “for what have I done to you?”
21 Hoi hou aku la oia mai ona aku la, a lalau iho la i kekahi paa bipi kauo, a pepehi loa ia, a baila ae la i ko laua io me na mea haua o ka bipi, a haawi ae na na kanaka, a ai iho la lakou. Alaila, ku ae la oia iluna, a hahai aku la mamuli o Elia, a lawelawe ae la nana.
So Elisha turned back from him, took his pair of oxen, and slaughtered them. With the oxen’s equipment, he cooked the meat and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out to follow and serve Elijah.
