2 Kanaafuu Eeliyaas Ahaabitti of mulʼisuu dhaqe. Yeroo kanatti Samaariyaa keessatti beelli hammaatee ture.
Saboda haka Iliya ya tafi ya gabatar da kansa ga Ahab. Yanzu dai yunwa ta tsananta a Samariya,

Ahab kuma ya aika a kawo Obadiya, sarkin fadansa (Obadiya dai cikakken mai gaskata da Ubangiji ne.

Yayinda Yezebel tana kisan annabawan Ubangiji, Obadiya ya ɗauki annabawa ɗari ya ɓoye a kogwanni biyu, hamsin a kowanne, ya kuma tanada musu abinci da kuma ruwa.)
5 Ahaabis Obaadiyaadhaan akkana jedhe; “Biyyattii keessa deemiitii gara burqaawwanii fi sululawwan hundaa dhaqi. Akka horii keenya keessaa tokko iyyuu nu jalaa hin duuneef fardeenii fi gaangolii keenya jiraachifachuuf marga muraasa arganna taʼaatii.”
Ahab ya ce wa Obadiya, “Ka ratsa ƙasar zuwa dukan maɓulɓulai da fadamu. Mai yiwuwa ka sami ciyawa mu ba dawakai da alfadarai don su rayu, don kada mu kashe dabbobinmu.”
6 Kanaafuu isaan biyya keessa deemanii waliin gaʼuu barbaadan sana gargari qooddatan; Ahaab karaa tokko, Obaadiyaan immoo karaa kaan qajeele.
Saboda haka suka raba ƙasar da za su ratsa, Ahab zai tafi gefe ɗaya, Obadiya kuma yă bi gefe ɗaya.
7 Utuma Obaadiyaan karaa deemuu Eeliyaas isatti dhufe. Obaadiyaan isa beekee gad jedhee harka fuudhee, “Eeliyaas gooftaan koo dhugumaan siʼii?” jedheen.
Yayinda Obadiya yana tafiya, sai Iliya ya sadu da shi. Obadiya ya gane shi, ya rusuna har ƙasa, ya ce, “Kai ne, shugabana, Iliya?”
8 Innis deebisee, “Eeyyee, anuma. Dhaqiitii, ‘Eeliyaas as jira’ jedhii gooftaa keetti himi” jedheen.
Iliya ya amsa, ya ce, “I, je ka faɗa wa maigidanka cewa, ‘Iliya yana a nan.’”
9 Obaadiyaanis akkana jedhee gaafate; “Ati akka inni na ajjeesuuf garbicha kee dabarsitee Ahaabitti kennuun kee ani maal balleesseeti?
Obadiya ya yi tambaya, “Me na yi da ba daidai ba, da kake miƙa bawanka ga Ahab don yă kashe?
10 Dhugaa Waaqayyo Waaqa kee jiraataa sanaa, sabni yookaan mootummaan gooftaan koo si barbaaduuf jedhee nama itti hin ergin tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Yeroo sabni yookaan mootummaan tokko, ‘Nu isa hin argine’ jedhutti, inni akka isaan akka si hin argin kakatan godha ture.

Yanzu fa, kana ce in tafi wurin mai girma sarki, in ce, ‘Iliya yana a nan.’ Ai, zai kashe ni!”
15 Eeliyaasis deebisee, “Dhugaa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu kan ani isa tajaajilu sanaa, ani harʼa Ahaabitti ofan mulʼisa” jedhe.
Iliya ya ce, “Na rantse da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, wanda nake bauta wa, tabbatacce zan gabatar da kaina ga Ahab a yau.”
16 Kanaafuu Obaadiyaan gara Ahaab dhaqee itti hime; Ahaabis Eeliyaasin Simachuu dhaqe.
Saboda haka sai Obadiya ya tafi wurin Ahab ya faɗa masa, Ahab kuwa ya tafi wurin Iliya.
17 Innis Eeliyaasin argee, “Kan Israaʼelin jeequ sun siʼii?” jedheen.
Sa’ad da Ahab ya ga Iliya, sai ya ce masa, “Kai ne wannan, kai mai tā-da-na-zaune-tsaye a Isra’ila?”
18 Eeliyaas immoo deebisee akkana jedheen; “Siʼii fi mana abbaa keetiitu jeeqe malee ani Israaʼelin hin jeeqne. Isin ajaja Waaqayyoo diddaniirtu; atis Baʼaal duukaa buuteerta.
Iliya ya amsa, ya ce, “Ban tā-da-na-zaune-tsaye a Isra’ila ba. Amma kai da iyalin mahaifinka, ku kuka tā-da-na-zaune-tsaye. Ka ƙyale umarnai Ubangiji, ka bi Ba’al.

Iliya ya je gaban mutane ya ce, “Har yaushe za ku yi ta yawo tsakanin ra’ayoyi biyu? In Ubangiji ne Allah, ku bi shi; amma in Ba’al Allah ne, ku bi shi.” Mutane dai ba su ce uffam ba.
22 Eeliyaasis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Raajota Waaqayyoo keessaa ana qofatu hafe; Baʼaal garuu raajota dhibba afurii fi shantama qaba.
Sai Iliya ya ce musu, “Ni ne kaɗai annabin Ubangiji da ya rage, amma Ba’al yana da annabawa ɗari huɗu da hamsin.

25 Eeliyaasis raajota Baʼaaliin akkana jedhe; “Jiboota keessaa isa tokko filadhaatii sababii isin nama hedduu taataniif jalqabatti qalaa qopheessaa. Maqaa Waaqa keessanii waammadhaa; garuu ibidda hin bobeessinaa.”
Iliya ya ce wa annabawan Ba’al, “Ku ku fara zaɓi bijimi ɗaya, ku shirya, da yake kuna da yawa. Ku kira a bisa sunan allahnku, amma kada ku ƙuna wuta.”
26 Kanaafuu isaan dibicha isaaniif kenname fudhatanii qalanii qopheessan.

Garuu deebiin tokko illee hin argamne; kan deebii kennuuf tokko iyyuus hin turre. Iddoo aarsaa kan tolchan sanattis naannaʼanii shubbisan.

Da tsakar rana, Iliya ya fara yin musu ba’a. Ya ce, “Ku yi ihu da ƙarfi, tabbatacce shi allah ne! Mai yiwuwa yana cikin zurfin tunani, ko dai aiki ya yi masa yawa, ko ya yi tafiya. Mai yiwuwa yana barci ne, dole a tashe shi.”
28 Kanaafuu isaan akkuma amala isaanii sagalee ol fudhatanii iyyaa, goraadee fi eeboodhaan of ciranii dhiiga ofii isaanii dhangalaasan.

30 Eeliyaas immoo ergasii saba hundaan, “Mee as gara koo kottaa” jedhe. Isaan gara isaa dhufnaan inni iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyoo kan caccabee ture sana deebisee tolche.

Ya ce, “Ku sāke yin haka,” sai suka sāke yin haka. Ya umarta, “Ku yi haka sau na uku,” suka kuma yi haka sau na uku.
