1 Mootota 19
1 Ahaab waan Eeliyaas hojjete hundaa fi akka inni itti raajota sana hunda goraadeedhaan fixe Iizaabelitti hime.
Now Ahab tolde Iezebel all that Eliiah had done, and how he had slaine all the prophets with the sword.
2 Kanaafuu Iizaabel nama tokko Eeliyaasitti ergitee, “Yoo ani bori yoona lubbuu kee akkuma lubbuu jara sanaa keessaa akka isa tokkoo gochuu baadhe waaqonni na haa adaban; adabbiin sunis akka malee natti haa cimu” jetteen.
Then Iezebel sent a messenger vnto Eliiah, saying, The gods doe so to me and more also, if I make not thy life like one of their liues by to morowe this time.
3 Eeliyaas sodaatee lubbuu ofii isaa oolfachuuf kaʼee baqate. Innis yommuu Bersheebaa Yihuudaa keessaa sana gaʼetti hojjetaa ofii achitti dhiisee
When he sawe that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beer-sheba, which is in Iudah, and left his seruant there.
4 ofii isaatii immoo karaa guyyaa tokkoo gammoojjii keessa deeme. Innis muka ittachaa tokkotti dhufee jala taaʼee akka duʼuuf, “Yaa Waaqayyo na dhagaʼi; lubbuu koo fudhadhu; ani abbootii koo hin caaluutii” jedhe.
But he went a dayes iourney into the wildernesse, and came and sate downe vnder a iuniper tree, and desired that he might die, and sayde, It is now ynough: O Lord, take my soule, for I am no better then my fathers.
5 Ergasiis muka sana jala ciisee hirribni isa fudhate. Kunoo ergamaan Waaqayyoo tokko isa tuqee, “Kaʼii waa nyaadhu” jedheen.
And as he lay and slept vnder the iuniper tree, behold now, an Angel touched him, and said vnto him, Vp, and eate.
6 Innis of irra milʼatee Maxinoo cilee irratti bilcheeffame tokkoo fi okkotee bishaanii mataa ofii biratti arge. Nyaatee dhugees amma illee deebiʼee ciise.
And when he looked about, behold, there was a cake baken on the coles, and a pot of water at his head: so he did eate and drinke, and returned and slept.
7 Ergamaan Waaqayyoo amma illee yeroo lammaffaa dhufee isa tuqee, “Kaʼii nyaadhu; karaan ati deemtu dheeraadhaatii” jedheen.
And the Angel of the Lord came againe the second time, and touched him, and sayd, Vp, and eate: for thou hast a great iourney.
8 Kanaafuu inni kaʼee nyaatee dhuge. Innis nyaata sanaan jabaatee hamma tulluu Waaqaa kan Kooreeb jedhamu gaʼutti halkan afurtamaa fi guyyaa afurtama miillaan deeme.
Then he arose, and did eate and drinke, and walked in the strength of that meate fourtie dayes and fourtie nights, vnto Horeb the mount of God.
9 Achittis holqa tokko seenee keessa bule. Dubbiin Waaqayyoos gara isaa dhufee, “Eeliyaas, ati maal asii hojjetta?” jedheen.
And there he entred into a caue, and lodged there: and beholde, the Lord spake to him, and said vnto him, What doest thou here, Eliiah?
10 Innis akkana jedhee deebise; “Waaqayyo Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼu sanaaf ani akka malee hinaaffaa qaba. Sabni Israaʼel immoo kakuu kee didee iddoowwan aarsaa keetii diigee raajota kees goraadeedhaan fixe. Ana qofatu hafe; isaan amma anas ajjeesuu barbaadu.”
And he answered, I haue bene very ielous for the Lord God of hostes: for the children of Israel haue forsaken thy couenant, broken downe thine altars, and slayne thy Prophets with the sword, and I onely am left, and they seeke my life to take it away.
11 Waaqayyos, “Gadi baʼiitii fuula Waaqayyoo dura tulluu irra dhaabadhu; Waaqayyo achiin darbuuf jiraatii” jedheen. Bubbeen guddaa fi jabaan tokko fuula Waaqayyoo duratti tulluuwwan gargari dayyaasee kattaawwanis hurreesse; Waaqayyo garuu bubbee sana keessa hin turre. Bubbee sana booddee sochii lafaa guddaa isaatu ture; Waaqayyo garuu sochii lafaa sana keessa hin turre.
And he saide, Come out, and stand vpon the mount before the Lord. And beholde, the Lord went by, and a mightie strong winde rent the mountaines, and brake the rockes before the Lord: but the Lord was not in the winde: and after the wind came an earthquake: but the Lord was not in the earthquake:
12 Sochii lafaa booddee ibiddi ni dhufe; Waaqayyo garuu ibidda sana keessa hin turre. Ibidda sana booddee immoo hasaasa xinnaa tokkotu ture.
And after the earthquake came fire: but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire came a still and soft voyce.
13 Eeliyaas yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti uffata ofii isaa fuulatti haguuggatee gara afaan holqa sanaatti hiiqee dhaabate. Sagaleen tokkos, “Eeliyaas ati maal asii hojjetta?” jedheen.
And when Eliiah heard it, he couered his face with his mantel, and went out, and stoode in the entring in of ye caue: and behold, there came a voyce vnto him, and sayd, What doest thou here, Eliiah?
14 Innis akkana jedhee deebise; “Waaqayyo Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼu sanaaf ani akka malee hinaaffaa qaba. Sabni Israaʼel immoo kakuu kee didee, iddoowwan aarsaa keetii diigee raajota kees goraadeedhaan fixe. Ana qofatu hafe; isaan amma anas ajjeesuu barbaadu.”
And he answered, I haue bene very ielous for the Lord God of hostes, because the children of Israel haue forsaken thy couenant, cast downe thine altars, and slayne thy Prophets with the sworde, and I onely am left, and they seeke my life to take it away.
15 Waaqayyo garuu akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Karuma dhufte sanaan deebiʼiitii Gammoojjii Damaasqoo dhaqi. Yommuu achi geessutti Hazaaʼeelin dibiitii Sooriyaa irratti mootii godhi.
And the Lord said vnto him, Goe, returne by the wildernes vnto Damascus, and when thou commest there, anoint Hazael King ouer Aram.
16 Yehuu ilma Nimshiis akkasuma dibiitii mootii Israaʼel godhi; Elsaaʼi ilma Shaafaaxi kan warra Abeel Mehoolaa sana immoo akka inni raajii taʼee iddoo kee buʼuuf muudi.
And Iehu the sonne of Nimshi shalt thou anoynt King ouer Israel: and Elisha the sonne of Shaphat of Abel Meholah shalt thou anoynt to be Prophet in thy roume.
17 Yehuun nama baqatee goraadee Hazaaʼeel jalaa baʼu hunda ni ajjeesa; Elsaaʼis nama baqatee goraadee Yehuu jalaa baʼu hunda ni ajjeesa.
And him that escapeth from the sworde of Hazael, shall Iehu slay: and him that escapeth from the sword of Iehu, shall Elisha slay.
18 Taʼus ani nama kuma torba kanneen Israaʼel keessatti hambifadhe, warra jilbi isaanii Baʼaaliif hin jilbeenfatin, warra afaan isaaniis isa hin dhungatin qaba.”
Yet wil I leaue seuen thousand in Israel, euen all the knees that haue not bowed vnto Baal, and euery mouth that hath not kissed him.
19 Kanaafuu Eeliyaas achii baʼee Elsaaʼi ilma Shaafaaxi argate. Elsaaʼi yeroo sanatti qotiyyoo cimdii kudha lamaatiin lafa qotiisaa qotaa ture; inni mataan isaa immoo cimdii kudha lammaffaa qabatee ture. Eeliyaas gara isaa dhaqee kaabbaa ofii isaa isa irra buuse.
So he departed thence, and found Elisha the sonne of Shaphat who was plowing with twelue yoke of oxen before him, and was with the twelft: and Eliiah went towards him, and cast his mantel vpon him.
20 Elsaaʼis qotiyyoo ofii isaa dhiisee Eeliyaas duukaa fiigee, “Mee takkaa dhaqee abbaa koo fi haadha koo dhungadhee, ‘Nagaatti’ jedheen si duukaa buʼaa” jedhe. Eeliyaas immoo, “Deebiʼi; ani maalin si godhee jira?” jedhee deebiseef.
And he left the oxen, and ran after Eliiah, and sayde, Let mee, I pray thee, kisse my father and my mother, and then I wil follow thee. Who answered him, Go, returne: for what haue I done to thee?
21 Kanaafuu Elsaaʼi isa dhiisee deebiʼe. Qotiyyoo cimdii tokkoo fuudhee qale. Miʼa ittiin lafa qotiisaa qotu sanas bobeessee foon sana bilcheessee namootaaf kenne; isaanis ni nyaatan. Ergasiis kaʼee Eeliyaas duukaa buʼe; tajaajilaa isaas taʼe.
And when he went backe againe from him, he tooke a couple of oxen, and slewe them, and sod their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gaue vnto the people, and they did eate: then he arose and went after Eliiah, and ministred vnto him.
