1 Mpanjaka 19
1 Hene natalili’ i Akabe am’ Iizebele ty nanoe’ i Elià naho i nanjamana’e am-pibara o mpitoky iabioy.
And Ahab declareth to Jezebel all that Elijah did, and all how he slew all the prophets by 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.
and Jezebel sendeth a messenger unto Elijah, saying, 'Thus doth the gods, and thus do they add, surely about this time to-morrow, I make thy life as the life of 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 he feareth, and riseth, and goeth for his life, and cometh in to Beer-Sheba, that [is] Judah's, and leaveth 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.
and he himself hath gone into the wilderness a day's Journey, and cometh and sitteth under a certain retem-tree, and desireth his soul to die, and saith, 'Enough, now, O Jehovah, take 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 lieth down and sleepeth under a certain retem-tree, and lo, a messenger cometh against him, and saith to him, 'Rise, 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 looketh attentively, and lo, at his bolster a cake [baken on] burning stones, and a dish of water, and he eateth, and drinketh, and turneth, and lieth down.
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 messenger of Jehovah turneth back a second time, and cometh against him, and saith, 'Rise, eat, for the way is too great 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 riseth, and eateth, and drinketh, and goeth in the power of that food 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 cometh in there, unto the cave, and lodgeth there, and lo, the word of Jehovah [is] unto him, and saith to him, 'What — to thee, 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 saith, 'I have been very zealous for Jehovah, God of Hosts, for the sons of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant — Thine altars they have thrown down, and Thy prophets they have slain by the sword, and I am left, I, by myself, and they seek my life — to take it.'
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 saith, 'Go out, and thou hast stood in the mount before Jehovah.' And lo, Jehovah is passing by, and a wind — great and strong — is rending mountains, and shivering rocks before Jehovah: — not in the wind [is] Jehovah; and after the wind a shaking: — not in the shaking [is] Jehovah;
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 shaking a fire: — not in the fire [is] Jehovah; and after the fire a voice still small;
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 cometh to pass, at Elijah's hearing [it], that he wrappeth his face in his robe, and goeth out, and standeth at the opening of the cave, and lo, unto him [is] a voice, and it saith, 'What — to thee, 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 saith, 'I have been very zealous for Jehovah, God of Hosts; for the sons of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant, Thine altars they have thrown down, and Thy prophets they have slain by the sword, and I am left, I, by myself, and they seek my life — to take it.'
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 Jehovah saith unto him, 'Go turn back on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus, and thou hast gone in, and anointed Hazael for king over Aram,
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 son of Nimshi thou dost anoint for king over Israel, and Elisha son of Shaphat, of Abel-Meholah, thou dost anoint for 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 hath been, him who is escaped from the sword of Hazael, put to death doth Jehu, and him who is escaped from the sword of Jehu put to death doth Elisha;
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 have left in Israel seven thousand, all the knees that have not bowed to Baal, and every mouth that 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 goeth thence, and findeth Elisha son of Shaphat, and he is plowing; twelve yoke [are] before him, and he [is] with the twelfth; and Elijah passeth over unto him, and casteth his robe upon 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 forsaketh the oxen, and runneth after Elijah, and saith, 'Let me give a kiss, I pray thee, to my father and to my mother, and I go after thee.' And he saith to him, 'Go, turn back, 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 turneth back from after him, and taketh the yoke of oxen, and sacrificeth it, and with instruments of the oxen he hath boiled their flesh, and giveth to the people, and they eat, and he riseth, and goeth after Elijah, and serveth him.
