1 Mpanjaka 19
1 Hene natalili’ i Akabe am’ Iizebele ty nanoe’ i Elià naho i nanjamana’e am-pibara o mpitoky iabioy.
And Achab told Izebel all that Elijah had done, and withal that he had slain all the prophets with the sword.
2 Aa le nampañitrik’ amy Elià t’Iizebele nanao ty hoe: Ee te anoa’ o ‘ndrahareo amako ndra mandikoatse naho tsy ampanahafeko ami’ty fiai’ ty raik’ am’ iereo ty fiai’o te maray hoe zao.
Then sent Izebel a messenger unto Elijah, saying, So may the gods do to me, and may they thus continue, if about this time tomorrow I do not render thy life as the life of any one of them.
3 Ie jinanji’e, le niongake nandrombak’ aiñe naho nivotrake e Beerseva e Iehoda añe vaho napò’e ao i mpitoro’ey.
And when he saw this, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beer-sheba', which belongeth to Judah, and he left his young man there.
4 F’ie nañavelo andro raike mb’an-dratraratra añe, le nivike naho niambesatse ambane’ talý eo, nañiry hivetrake, le hoe re, soa izay; ie henaneo, ry Iehovà, rambeso ty fiaiko, fa tsy vantañe te aman-droaeko iraho.
But he himself went forward into the wilderness a day's journey, and he came and sat down under a certain broom-bush: and he requested for himself to die; and he said, It is enough, now, O Lord, take away my soul; for I am not better than my fathers.
5 Aa le nandre re nirotse ambane’ i taliy eo, vaho ingo ty anjely nanohiñ’ aze ami’ty hoe: Mitroara, mikamà.
And he laid himself down and slept under a certain broom-bush, and, behold then, an angel was touching him, and said unto him, Arise, eat.
6 Niandra re, le hehe te marine’ ty añambone’e eo ty vonga-mofo natoñak’ ambone’ vaen’ afo, naho ty zonjon-drano, le nikama naho ninoñe le nirotse indraike.
And he looked about, and, behold, there was at his head a cake baked on coals, and a cruise of water; and he ate and drank, and laid himself down again.
7 Niheo mb’eo fañindroe’e i anjeli’ Iehovày, nañedre aze nanao ty hoe: Mitroara, mikamà, fa tsy ho leo’o i liay.
And the angel of the Lord came again, the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise, eat; because the journey is yet far for thee.
8 Aa le nitroatse re, nikama naho ninoñe vaho nañavelo an-kaozarañe efapolo andro naho efapolo haleñe mb’e Korebe vohin’ Añahare mb’eo.
And he arose, and ate and drank; and he went on the strength of that eating forty days and forty nights unto the mount of God, Horeb.
9 Ie pok’eo le nimoak’ an-dakato naho nañialo ao naho niheova’ ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ama’e ty hoe: Ino ty anoe’o atoy, ry Elià?
And he came there unto a cave, and remained there over night: and, behold, the word of the Lord came to him, and said unto him, What dost thou here, Elijah?
10 Le hoe re: Toe nifarahieko t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ i Màroy; amy te tsinambolitio’ o ana’ Israeleo i fañina’oy, nafetsak’ ambane o kitreli’oo naho vinono am-pibara o mpitoki’oo, naho izaho le izaho ty honka’e vaho mipay ty fiaiko iereo, havetrake.
And he said, I have been very zealous for the Lord, the God of hosts; for the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thy altars have they thrown down, and thy prophets have they slain with the sword: and I am left by myself alone, and they have sought my life, to take it away.
11 Le hoe re: Miavota, mijohaña an-kaboañe ey añ’ atrefa’ Iehovà. Aa inge, niary eo t’Iehovà, le rinia’ ty tio-bey manangololahy i vohitsey naho namoy vato añatrefa’ Iehovà; fe tsy tamy tiokey t’Iehovà; ie añe i tiokey le ty fanginikinihan-tane; fe tsy tamy fanginikinihañey t’Iehovà;
And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the Lord: and, behold, the Lord passed by, and a wind, great and strong, rending the mountains, and breaking in pieces the rocks [went] before the Lord; but not in the wind was the Lord: and after the wind was an earthquake: but not in the earthquake was the Lord;
12 ie añe i fanginikinihañey, le ty afo; fe tsy tamy afoy t’Iehovà; ie añe’ i afoy le ty fikofohañe mora.
And after the earthquake was a fire; but not in the fire was the Lord; and after the fire was the sound of a soft whisper.
13 Ie jinanji’ i Elià izay, le kinolopo’e amy sarimbo’ey ty añambone’e, naho niakatse nijohañe am-bava’ i lakatoy eo, vaho inao ty fiarañanañañe mb’ ama’e nanao ty hoe: Ino o anoe’o etoa, ry Elià?
And it came to pass, when Elijah heard it, that he concealed his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entrance of the cave: and, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What dost thou here, Elijah?
14 Le hoe re: Vata’e nifarahieko t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ i Màroy; amy te tsinambolitio’ o ana’ Israeleo i fañina’oy, nafetsak’ ambane o kitreli’oo, naho vinono am-pibara o mpitoki’oo, le izaho, toe izaho avao ty honka’e, ie mipay ty fiaiko, haitoañe.
And he said, I have been very zealous for the Lord, the God of hosts; because the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thy altars have they thrown down, and thy prophets have they slain with the sword: and I am left by myself alone, and they have sought my life, to take it away.
15 Le hoe t’Iehovà ama’e: Akia, mibaliha mb’amy lia’oy mb’eo pak’ am-patrambei’ i Damesèk’ añe; ie mivotrake eo, le orizo ho mpanjaka’ i Arame t’i Kazaele
And the Lord said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus; and go, anoint Chazael to be king over Syria;
16 naho Iehò ana’ i Nimsý ty horiza’o ho mpanjaka’ Israele vaho i Elisà ana’ i Safate nte-Abelmeholà ty horiza’o ho mpitoky handimbe azo.
And Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel; and Elisha' the son of Shaphat of Abel-mecholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy stead.
17 Ie amy zao, ze mipoliotse ami’ty fibara’ i Kazaele ho zevoñe’ Iehò; le ze mipolatitse am-pibara’ Iehò ho zevoñe’ i Elisà.
And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth the sword of Chazael shall Jehu slay; and him that escapeth the sword of Jehu shall Elisha' slay.
18 Fa amako e Israele ao ty fito-arivo sehanga’e, ze hene ongotse mb’e lia’e tsy nitongalek’ amy Baale vaho ze hene falie mboe tsy nañorok’ aze.
And I will leave in Israel seven thousand, all the knees which have not been bent unto Ba'al, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.
19 Aa le niavotse mb’eo re naho tendrek’ aze t’i Elisà ana’ i Sefate, nitan-dasarý reketse katràka amam-baoñe folo-ro’ amby aolo’e; nindre amy faha folo-ro’ambiy re vaho nahifi’e ama’e i sarimbo’ey.
And he departed thence, and found Elisha' the son of Shaphat, who was ploughing; twelve yoke of oxen were before him, and he was with the twelfth: and Elijah passed up to him, and cast his mantle toward him.
20 Aa le napo’e i katràka rey naho nilay nañorike i Elià nanao ty hoe: Angao horofako ty raeko naho i reneko le horiheko. Le hoe re tama’e; Mibaliha; ino ty nanoako azo?
And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss but my father and my mother, and I will [then] follow thee: and he said unto him, Go, return; for what have I done to thee?
21 Aa le nibalik’ amy fañoriha’e aze naho rinambe’e ty katràka roe mpiharo baoñe, le linenta’e naho nahandro o hena’eo ami’ty harao’ i añombe rey naho nanjotsoa’e ondatio, vaho nikama. Niongak’ amy zao re nañorike i Elià, vaho nitoroñe aze.
And he returned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen, and slew them, and with the instruments of the oxen he boiled the flesh for them, and he gave it unto the people, and they did eat; and then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto him.
