1 Kraljevima 17
1 Tada reèe Ahavu Ilija Tesviæanin, jedan od naseljenika Galadskih: tako da je živ Gospod Bog Izrailjev, pred kojim stojim, ovijeh godina neæe biti rose ni dažda dokle ja ne reèem.
Then said Elijah the Tishbite, of Tishbe in Gilead, unto Ahab, By the life of Yahweh, God of Israel, before whom I stand, there shall not, these two years, be either dew or rain, —save at the bidding of my word.
2 Potom doðe njemu rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
Then came the word of Yahweh unto him, saying:
3 Idi odavde, i obrati se na istok, i sakrij se kod potoka Horata prema Jordanu.
Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, —and hide thyself in the ravine of Cherith, which faceth the Jordan;
4 I iz onoga potoka pij, a gavranima sam zapovjedio da te hrane ondje.
and it shall be that, of the torrent, shalt thou drink, —and, the ravens, have I commanded to sustain thee, there.
5 I on otide i uèini po rijeèi Gospodnjoj, i otišav stani se kod potoka Horata, koji je prema Jordanu.
So he went and did, according to the word of Yahweh, —yea he went and dwelt in the ravine of Cherith, which faceth the Jordan.
6 I ondje mu gavrani donošahu hljeba i mesa jutrom i veèerom, a iz potoka pijaše.
And, the ravens, used to bring him bread and flesh, in the morning, and bread and flesh, in the evening, —and, of the torrent, used he to drink.
7 Ali poslije godinu dana presahnu potok, jer ne bješe dažda u zemlji.
But it came to pass, at the end of [certain] days, that the torrent dried up, —because there had been no rain in the land.
8 Tada doðe njemu rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
Then came the word of Yahweh unto him, saying—
9 Ustani, idi u Sareptu Sidonsku, i sjedi ondje; evo zapovjedio sam ondje ženi udovici da te hrani.
Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there, —Lo! I have commanded, there, a widow woman, to sustain thee.
10 I ustavši otide u Sareptu; i kad doðe na vrata gradska, gle, žena udovica kupljaše ondje drva; i on je dozva i reèe joj: donesi mi malo vode u sudu da se napijem.
So he arose and went to Zarephath, and, when he came to the entrance of the city, lo! there, a widow woman gathering sticks, —and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
11 I ona poðe da donese; a on je viknu i reèe: donesi mi i hljeba malo.
And, as she went to fetch it, he called to her and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread, in thy hand.
12 A ona reèe: tako da je živ Gospod Bog tvoj, nemam peèena hljeba do grst brašna u zdjeli i malo ulja u krèagu; i eto kupim drvaca da otidem i zgotovim sebi i sinu svojemu, da pojedemo, pa onda da umremo.
And she said—By the life of Yahweh, thy God, verily I have not a cake, only a handful of meal in the jar, and a little oil in the cruse, —and lo! I have been gathering a couple of sticks, so I shall go in and make it ready for me and for my son, that we may eat it—and die!
13 A Ilija joj reèe: ne boj se, idi, zgotovi kako si rekla; ali umijesi prvo meni jedan kolaèiæ od toga, i donesi mi, pa poslije gotovi sebi i sinu svojemu.
And Elijah said unto her—Do not fear, go in—make ready according to thy word, —howbeit, make me thereof a little cake, first, and bring it out to me, and, for thyself and thy son, make ready, afterwards.
14 Jer ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: brašno se iz zdjele neæe potrošiti niti æe ulja u krèagu nestati dokle ne pusti Gospod dažda na zemlju.
For, thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, The jar of meal, shall not waste, and, the cruse of oil, shall not fail, —until the day that Yahweh giveth rain upon the face of the ground.
15 I ona otide i uèini kako reèe Ilija; i jede i ona i on i dom njezin godinu dana;
So she went and made ready, according to the word of Elijah, —and did eat, she, and he, and her house, [certain] days:
16 Brašno se iz zdjele ne potroši niti ulja u krèagu nesta po rijeèi Gospodnjoj, koju reèe preko Ilije.
The jar of meal, did not waste, —and, the cruse of oil, did not fail, —according to the word of Yahweh, which he spake through Elijah.
17 A poslije toga razbolje se sin ženi domaæici, i bolest njegova bi vrlo teška, tako da izdahnu.
And it came to pass, after these things, that the son of the woman, owner of the house, fell sick, —yea it came to pass that his sickness was very severe, until no, breath, was left in him.
18 I ona reèe Iliji: šta je tebi do mene, èovjeèe Božji? Jesi li došao k meni da spomeneš bezakonje moje i da mi umoriš sina?
Then said she unto Elijah, What have I in common with thee, O man of God? Hast thou come unto me, to call to remembrance mine iniquity, and to cause the death of my son?
19 A on joj reèe: daj mi sina svojega. I uzev ga iz naruèja njezina odnese ga u gornju klijet, gdje on sjeðaše, i položi ga na postelju svoju.
And he said unto her—Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him unto the upper room, where, he, was staying, and laid him upon his own bed.
20 Tada zavapi ka Gospodu i reèe: Gospode Bože moj, zar si i ovu udovicu kod koje sam gost tako ucvijelio umorivši joj sina?
Then cried he unto Yahweh, and said, —O Yahweh, my God! Even upon the widow with whom I am sojourning, hast thou brought misfortune by causing the death of her son?
21 I pruživ se nad djetetom tri puta zavapi ka Gospodu govoreæi: Gospode Bože moj, neka se povrati u dijete duša njegova.
And he stretched himself out upon the boy, three times, and cried unto Yahweh, and said, —O Yahweh, my God! Let the life of this boy, I pray thee, come again within him.
22 I Gospod usliši glas Ilijin, te se povrati u dijete duša njegova, i oživje.
And Yahweh hearkened unto the voice of Elijah, —and the life of the boy came again within him, and he lived.
23 A Ilija uzev dijete snese ga iz gornje klijeti u kuæu, i dade ga materi njegovoj, i reèe Ilija: vidi, živ je tvoj sin.
Then Elijah took the boy, and carried him down out of the upper room, into the house, and gave him to his mother, —and Elijah said, See! thy son liveth.
24 A žena reèe Iliji: sada znam da si èovjek Božji i da je rijeè Gospodnja u tvojim ustima istina.
And the woman said unto Elijah, Now, then I know, that, a man of God, thou art, —and that, the word of Yahweh, is in thy mouth, of a truth.
