1 Kva 18
1 Hagi ko'ma oruno zagema reno e'nea knamofo namba 3 kafurera, Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Elaijana asami'ne, vunka kini ne' Ahapuna kavugosa ome averi nehunka, ama mopafina Ra Anumzamo'a kora atrenigeno hago rugahie hunka ome asamio.
And it happened after many days that the word of the LORD came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, "Go, present yourself to Ahab, and I will send rain on the earth."
2 Ananke'ma nentahino'a, Ahapu avure vunaku Elaija'a vu'ne. Ana knafina Sameria kaziga tusi agatontonkna fore hu'ne.
So Elijah went to present himself to Ahab. And the famine was severe in Samaria.
3 Hagi Ahapu'a noma'amofo kva ne' Obediana kehigeno' e'ne. Obedia'a Ra Anumzamofona koro hunteno, agorga'a nemania nere.
And Ahab summoned Obadiah, the steward of the house. (Now Obadiah feared the LORD greatly.
4 Hagi Jesebeli'ma Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa vahetmima zamahe vagamaneregeno'a, 100'a kasnampa vahera zamavareno 50'a mago havegampi nezmanteno, 50'a mago havegampi frakizmanteneno, tine ne'zanena zamitere hu'ne.
And it came about, when Jezebel was killing the prophets of the LORD, that Obadiah took one hundred prophets and hid them, fifty by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water.)
5 Hagi Ahapu'a amanage huno Obadiana asami'ne, Maka tinkrahopine aguporamipinena knare trazama me'nenigura haketa, ama hosi afutamine, donki afutamimo'zama fri'zankura zamaza hanunke'za manisageta zamahe ofrisune.
And Ahab said to Obadiah, "Go through the land, to all the springs of water, and to all the wadis. Perhaps we may find grass and save the horses and mules alive, that we not lose all the animals."
6 Anage nehuke mago kaziga moparega Ahapu'a agraku vigeno, mago kaziga moparega Obadia'a agraku vu'ne.
So they divided the land between them to explore it; Ahab went one way alone, and Obadiah went another way alone.
7 Hagi Obadia'a agraku nevuno, Elaijana ome tutagiha hu'ne. Hagi Obedia'ama Elaijama keno antahinoma nehuno'a, avugosaregati mopafi umaseno amanage hu'ne, ranimoka, kagra tamage Elaijago?
And as Obadiah was on the way, look, Elijah met him; and he recognized him and fell on his face and said, "Is it you, my lord Elijah?"
8 Higeno Elaija'a amanage hune, Izo nagragi, vunka kvaka'amofona Elaija'a hago e'ne hunka ome asamio.
He answered him, "It is I. Go, tell your lord, 'Look, Elijah is here.'"
9 Anante Obedia'a amanage hu'ne, Eri'za vahekamo'na nagra na'a kumi hugenka, Ahapu'ma nahe frinogura hunenantane?
And he said, "How have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me?
10 Na'ankure Ra Anumzana kasefa huno mani'nea Anumzanka'amofo avufi tamage hu'na huvempa huankino, kini ne'mo'a maka ama mopafima me'nea kumatmimpina kagrikura hake vagare'ne. Ana nehuno mago mago kumate'ma hakeno'ma nevuno'a, ana kumate kini vahetmima zamantahigege'za, i'o omani'nema hazageno'a, kini ne' Ahapu'a huvempa huta tamage hiho higeno, tamage huta onke'nona hu'za hu'naze.
As the LORD your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom, where my lord has not sent to seek you. When they said, 'He is not here,' he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they did not find you.
11 Higenka menina nagrikura amanage nehane, Elaija'a ne-e hunka ranka'amofona ome asamio hunka nehane.
Now you say, 'Go, tell your lord, "Look, Elijah is here."'
12 Hianagi katre'nama amaretima nevanugeno'a, Ra Anumzamofo Avamu'mo'a onkenurega kavresga huno vugahie. Ana'ma hanigeno'ma Ahapuma ome asamisugeno eno eme kesiama omani'nesankeno'a, nagra ositeti'ma manina e'noana, Ra Anumzamofonku korora hunte'na agoraga'a mani'na e'noanagi, nahe frigahie.
It will happen, as soon as I am gone from you, that the Spirit of the LORD will carry you I do not know where; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he can't find you, he will kill me. But I, your servant, have feared the LORD from my youth.
13 Hagi Jesebeli'ma Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa vahe'tmima zamahe hana'ma nehigenama hu'noa zana, ranimoka onkasami'nazo? Nagra 100'a kasnampa vahetami refko hu'na 50'a mago havegampi fraki zamante'na, mago 50'a mago havegampina fraki zamante'nena ne'zane tinena zamami'noe.
Wasn't it told my lord what I did when Jezebel killed the prophets of the LORD, how I hid one hundred men of the LORD's prophets, fifty by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water?
14 Hagi menina kagra hunka Elaija'a hago e'ne hunka ome asamio nehanankina, nagrama ome asami'nugeno eme hakesiama omani'nenankeno'a nahe frigahie.
Now you say, 'Go, tell your lord, "Look, Elijah is here";' and he will kill me."
15 Hagi anagema higeno'a, Elaija'a amanage huno asami'ne, Amage'ma nentoa Ra Anumzana kasefa huno mani'nea Hihamu'ane Anumzamofo avufi tamage hu'na huvempa huanki'na, menina Ahapuna ome kegahue.
Elijah said, "As the LORD of hosts lives, before whom I stand, I will surely present myself to him today."
16 Higeno Obadia'a Ahapu ome kenaku vuno ome keno eri fore huteno, ana nanekea asamigeno Ahapu'a Elaija ome kenaku vu'ne.
So Obadiah went to meet Ahab, and told him; and Ahab went to meet Elijah.
17 Hagi Ahapu'ma Elaijama ome negeno'a amanage hu'ne, Israeli mopafima hazenkema eri fore nehana nera kagro.
It happened, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said to him, "Is that you, you troubler of Israel?"
18 Anagema higeno'a, Elaija'a amanage huno ke nona hu'ne, Nagra Israeli vahera hazenkea eri ozmi'noe. Hianagi kagrane nagakamo'zane Israeli vahetera hazenkea eri'za e'naze. Na'ankure kagra Ra Anumzamofo kasegea atrenka kamefi huneminka, Bali havi anumzantami monora ome hunentenka avariri'nane.
He answered, "I have not troubled Israel; but you, and your father's house, in that you have forsaken the commandments of the LORD, and you have followed the Baals.
19 Hagi menina huge'za maka Israeli vahera Karmeli agonare'ma mani'nenure omeri tru nehuta, 450'a Bali havi anumzamofo kasnampa vahe'ene, 400'a Asera havi anumzamofo kasnampa vahetamima Jesebeli'ma neza agampu'ma nehia vahetaminena zamavarenetma eviho.
Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel to Mount Carmel, and four hundred fifty of the prophets of Baal, and four hundred of the prophets of the Asherah, who eat at Jezebel's table."
20 Hagi anagema higeno'a, Ahapu'a ke atrege'za maka Israeli vahe'ene, ana kasnampa vahe'mo'zanena Karmeli agonare omeri atru hu'naze.
So Ahab sent to all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together at Mount Carmel.
21 Ana hutageno Elaija'a maka vahe zamavuga otino amanage huno hu'ne, Nama'a zupa tare antahintahirera otineta kantu vuge kama egera nehaze? Ra Anumzamo'ma tamage Anumzama mani'nena, Agri avaririho. Hianagi Bali havi anumzamo'ma tamage Anumzama mani'nena agri avaririho. Anagema hige'za ana vahe'mo'za kea osu'naze.
Elijah came near to all the people, and said, "How long will you keep limping between two positions? If the LORD is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him." But the people did not answer him a word.
22 Anage huteno Elaija'a ana vahetminkura amanage huno zamasami'ne, Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa nera nagrake mani'noe. Hianagi Bali havi anumzamofo kasnampa vahetmina 450'a vahe mani'nazagu,
Then Elijah said to the people, "I, even I only, am left a prophet of the LORD; but the prophets of Baal are four hundred and fifty men, and the prophets of Asherah four hundred.
23 menina tare bulimakao afu avreta eho. Hagi ana tare bulimakao afutrempintira Bali havi anumzamofo kasnampa vahe'mota tamavesinia su'a aheta taganavazita kre sramnavu itare'ma tevema hanavazi ante'nazarera nenteta tevea tagi onteho. Hagi nagra mago bulimakao afu ahe'na taganavazina kre sramnavu itare'ma tevema hanavazi antenurera nente'na tevea tagi ontegosue.
Let them therefore give us two bulls; and let them choose one bull for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under. And I will prepare the other bull, and lay it on the wood, and put no fire under it.
24 Hagi ana'ma huteta tamagra anumzantmimofo agi aheta nunamuna hanage'na, nagra Ra Anumzamofo agihe'na nunamuna hugahue. Hagi ina Anumzamo'ma nunamuma antahino tevema tagintesigeno ama ana ofama tesigeta e'i tamage Anumza mani'ne huta hugahune. Anagema higeno'a, maka vahetmimo'za tamage hane hu'za hu'naze.
You call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of the LORD, and the god who answers by fire, he is God." All the people answered, "It is well said."
25 Hagi ana'ma hazageno'a, Elaija'a amanage huno Bali havi anumzamofo kasanampa vahetminkura hu'ne. Ese'zana tamagra mago bulimakao afu aheta taganavazita kresramna vu itarera anteta anumzantmimofo agia aheta nunamuna hiho. Na'ankure tamagra rama'a mani'naze. Hianagi tevema hanavazi ante'nazarera tevea tagi onteho.
Then Elijah said to the prophets of Baal, "Choose one bull for yourselves, and prepare it first, for you are the majority, and call on the name of your god, but put no fire under it."
26 Hagi anagema hige'za mago bulimakao afu ahe'za taganavaziza kresramna vu itare antete'za, nanterama agafama hu'nazana nunamuna hu'za Bali havi anumzamofo agia nehe'za, kezati'za Bali anumzamoka ketia antahiramio hu'za nehu'za, krafa nehazageno zagemo'a anuntupi evuno feru omese'ne.

Hagi ana'ma higeno'a, anama tro'ma hu'naza kre sramna vu itamofo tavaonte haruhu'za mareriza tami'za nehu'za avore'za kagi'naze.
And they took the bull which was given them, and they prepared it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, "Baal, answer us." But there was no voice, nor any who answered. And they limped about the altar they had made.
27 Hagi zagemo'ma marerino feru'masegeno'a, Elaija'a agafa huno kiza zokago kea amanage huno huzmante'ne. Ranke huta kezatiho. Na'ankure agra anumza mani'ne. Agra feru avana negeno manige, kerirega vuge, kanteno vano huge, avu masege hu'negahianki azeri otiho.
And it came about, at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, "Cry aloud, for he is a god. Maybe he is thinking about it, or he is busy, or he is on a trip, or perhaps he is sleeping and must be awakened."
28 Anagema hige'za ranke hu'za kezaneti'za mono zmimofo avu'avamo'ma hu'neaza hu'za kazinteti'ene agona zanteti'enena zamavufaga taga hazageno koramo'a herafirami'ne.
And they cried aloud, and cut themselves, as was their custom, with swords and spears, until the blood gushed out on them.
29 Hagi ana nehu'za ranke hu'za avore'za kanegi'zageno, zagemo'a evutragiseno kinaga ofama nehaza knarera evu'ne. Hianagi ana anumzazmimo'a magore huno ke'zazmia antahizamino kenona huozami'ne.
And when midday was past, they prophesied until the offering up of the offering; but there was no voice, no answer, and no response.
30 Hagi ana'ma higeno'a Elaija'a amanage huno ana maka vahekura hu'ne, Amare erava'o hiho, higeno erava'o hazageno, Ra Anumzamofo Kresramana vu itama eri havizama hutre'nazana eriso'e huno tro hu'ne.
Elijah said to all the people, "Come near to me"; and all the people came near to him. He repaired the altar of the LORD that had been torn down.
31 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma Jekopuma asamino, kagri kagia Israelige hu'za hugahazema huno'ma hu'nere, 12fu'a naga'nofimofo huhamprino 12fu'a have erino,
Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the LORD came, saying, "Israel shall be your name."
32 Ra Anumzamofo agifi ana kre sramnavu ita tro huteno, ana itamofona 14ni'a lita tima marevaziga avamente tinkana aseno kagi'ne.
And with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD. And he made a trench around the altar, large enough to contain two seahs of seed.
33 Ana nehuno ana Kresramanavu itamofo agofetura teve hanavaziteno, bulimakao afura aheno taganavazino ana teve agofetu nenteno amanage hu'ne, ama ana ofama hu bulimakao afute'ene tevere'enena 4'a ranra tintafe afita tagi kasriho, huno hige'za,
And he arranged the wood, and cut the bull in pieces, and laid it on the wood.
34 ana hu'za 4'a ranra tintafe afiza bulimakoa ofane tevenena tagi pasuki'naze. Ana'ma hazageno'a, mago'ane ana hiho huno higeza, ete mago'ane ana hazageno, namba 3 zupa ana hiho huno hige'za ete mago'ane tina afi'za bulimakao ofane tevenena tagi pasuki'naze.
And he said, "Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering, and on the wood." And they did so. And he said, "Do it a second time"; and they did it the second time. And he said, "Do it a third time"; and they did it the third time.
35 Hagi ana'ma hazageno'a timo'a ana Kresramana vu itafintira hatihati huno tinkama asente'nefina marevite'ne.
And the water ran around the altar; and he also filled the trench with water.
36 Hagi kinagama ofama Kresramanama vu knama egeno'a, kre sramnavu itare Elaija'a erava'o huno amanage huno nunamuna hu'ne, Ra Anumzana, Abrahamune, Aisakine, Israeli Anumzamoka, Israeli mopafina Nagrake Anumzana mani'noe hunka nehunka, eri'za vahekamo'nagura Nagra huntogeno maka ama zantamina nehie hunka eriama huo.
It happened at the time of the offering up of the offering, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, "LORD, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that you are God in Israel, and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word.
37 Ra Anumzamoka nunamuni'a antahinamio! Nunamuni'a antahinamige'za ama vahetmimo'za Ra Anumzamoka kagrake Anumzana mani'nenka, tagu'a eri rukre hunka kagrarega tavrentane hu'za ke'za antahiza hugahaze.
Hear me, LORD, hear me, that this people may know that you, LORD, are God, and that you have turned their heart back again."
38 Anagema nehigeno'a monafinkati hantaka huno Ra Anumzamofo tevemo'a hagna hagna huno eramino, ana bulimakaoma tagnavazino'ma ante'nea afu'ene tevema hanavazi'nea tevene, kresramnavu itama tro hu'nea haveramine, kugusopane, tinkampima marevazi'nea tinena ana maka tevemo'a teno eri hana hu'ne.
Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.
39 Hagi maka vahe'mo'za ana zama nege'za zamavugosaregati mopafi mase'za amanage hu'naze, Ra Anumzamo'a Agrake tamage Anumzana mani'ne! Ra Anumzamo'a Agrake tamage Anumzana mani'ne! hu'za hu'naze.
And when all the people saw it, they fell facedown and said, "The LORD, he is God. The LORD, he is God."
40 Hagi ana'ma higeno'a Elaija'a amanage hu'ne, Bali havi anumzamofo kasnampa vahetami fresagi, ana maka zamazeriho, hige'za ana maka zamazerizageno Elaija'a ana Bali havi anumzamofo kasnampa vahetmina zamavareno vuno Kisoni timpi ome zamahe fri vagre'ne.
And Elijah said to them, "Seize the prophets of Baal. Do not let one of them escape." And they seized them. And Elijah brought them down to the Wadi Kishon, and killed them there.
41 Ana huteno Elaija'a amanage huno Ahapuna asami'ne, Marerinka ne'zane tinena ome no. Na'ankure rankokrerfa ne-ege'na agasasankea nentahue.
And Elijah said to Ahab, "Get up, eat and drink; for there is the sound of a heavy rain."
42 Anagema higeno'a, ne'zane tine ome nenaku Ahapu'a mareri'ne. Hagi Elaija'a Karmeli agona morusapi marerino arena omereno tare arenararempi asenia ante pri huteno mani'ne.
So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he bowed himself down toward the ground, and put his face between his knees.
43 Hagi Elaija'a eri'za ne'agura amanage hu'ne, Marerinka hagerima me'nerega omego. Higeno eri'za ne'amo'a marerino ome keteno, ete Elaijante eno amanage eme hu'ne. Mago zana onkoe, huno higeno, Elaija'a 7ni'a zupa vute ete hunka ome ko huno hunte'ne.
And he said to his servant, "Go up now, look toward the sea." So he went up, and looked, and said, "There is nothing." Then he said, "Go again" seven times. And the servant went again seven times.
44 Hagi namba 7ni zupa vuno ome keteno eno amanage eme hu'ne, Vahe'mofo azagusagna huno osi hampomo hageri me'nerega efore hige'na koe. Anagema higeno'a, Elaija'a amanage huno hunte'ne, Marerinka Ahapuna amanage hunka ome asamio, Ko ruhiza hanigenka ovnanki karisika'a retro hunka uramio hunka ome asamio.
It happened at the seventh time, that he said, "Look, a small cloud, like a man's hand, is rising out of the sea." He said, "Go up, tell Ahab, 'Get ready and go down, so that the rain doesn't stop you.'"
45 Hagi osi'a kna manigeno monafina hampomo'a ome rehanintiri higeno, zahomo'a hampona atufeno ne-egeno, tusi ko aru'ne. Hagi Ahapu'a karisi agumpi ame'ama huno marerino, Jezreli kumate vu'naku vu'ne.
It happened in a little while, that the sky grew black with clouds and wind, and there was a heavy rain. Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel.
46 Ana higeno Ra Anumzamo'a Elaijante azana anteno hanavea amigeno, zaza kena'a repasi hunaga atreno amu nofipi ahenevazino, tusi agareno Ahapuna ome azeri agatenereno Jezreli kumate vu'ne.
The hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he tucked his cloak into his belt and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.
