1 Zvino Eria muTishibhi aigara muGireadhi, akati kuna Ahabhu, “NaJehovha, Mwari waIsraeri mupenyu, wandinoshumira, hakuchazova nedova kana mvura inonaya mumakore anotevera kunze kwokutenge ndareva ini.”
Afei, Elia a ɔfiri Tisbi a ɛwɔ Gilead no ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene Ahab sɛ, “Mmerɛ dodoɔ a Awurade, Onyankopɔn a mesɔre no som no, Israel Onyankopɔn te ase yi, ɛbɔ rensi, na osuo nso rentɔ mfeɛ kakra bi mu, gye sɛ ɛnam mʼasɛm so.”
2 Ipapo shoko raJehovha rakasvika kuna Eria richiti,
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Elia sɛ,
3 “Ibva pano, nanga kumabvazuva undovanda paRukova rweKeriti, kumabvazuva kweJorodhani.
“Kɔ asuo Kerit a ɛwɔ apueeɛ fam no a ɛbɔ Asubɔnten Yordan mu no, na kɔhinta hɔ.
4 Uchanwa mvura yorukova urwu, uye ndarayira makunguo kuti akupe zvokudya ikoko.”
Nom asuo no mu nsuo, na di deɛ anene no de bɛbrɛ wo, ɛfiri sɛ, mahyɛ sɛ wɔmmrɛ wo aduane.”
5 Saka akaita zvaakanga audzwa naJehovha. Akaenda kuRukova rweKeriti, kumabvazuva kweJorodhani, akagarako.
Enti, Elia yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade aka akyerɛ no no. Ɔbɔɔ atenaeɛ wɔ asuo Kerit ho.
6 Makunguo akamuvigira chingwa nenyama mangwanani, nechingwa nenyama manheru, uye akanwa mvura murukova.
Anene no brɛɛ no burodo ne ɛnam anɔpa ne anwummerɛ biara, na ɔnom nsuo firii asuo no mu.
7 Mushure menguva yakati, rukova rwakapwa nokuti mvura yakanga isinganayi panyika.
Na akyire yi, asuo no weeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, na osuo ntɔ wɔ asase no so baabiara.
8 Zvino shoko raJehovha rakauya kwaari richiti,
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Elia sɛ,
9 “Simuka izvozvi uende kuZarefati kunyika yeSidhoni undogarako. Ndarayira chirikadzi iri munzvimbo iyoyo kuti ikupe zvokudya.”
“Kɔ na kɔtena akuraa Sarefat a ɛbɛn Sidon kuro no mu. Okunafoɔ bi wɔ hɔ a ɔbɛma wo aduane adi. Makyerɛ no deɛ ɔnyɛ.”
10 Naizvozvo akaenda kuZarefati. Paakasvika pasuo reguta, chirikadzi yakanga iripo ichitsvaga huni. Akamudana akamubvunza akati, “Mungandivigirawo mvura shoma shoma mumukombe here kuti ndinwe?”
Na Elia kɔɔ Sarefat. Ɔduruu kuro no abɔntenpono no ano no, ɔhunuu okunafoɔ bi a ɔrehwehwɛ mmabaa. Ɔbisaa no sɛ, “Mesrɛ wo, wobɛtumi ama me nsuo kuruwama bi?”
11 Paakanga ava kuenda kundoitora, iye akadanidzira akati, “Mundivigirewo chimedu chechingwa, ndapota.”
Ɔrekɔsa nsuo no aba no, ɔsrɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɛyɛ a fa burodo sini bi nso ka ho.”
12 Iye akapindura akati, “Zvirokwazvo naJehovha Mwari wenyu mupenyu, handina chingwa. Ndinongova netufurawu tushoma shoma muhari namafuta mashoma shoma muhari. Ndiri kunhonga huni shoma shoma kuti ndiende nadzo kumba ndinozvibikira kudya ini nomwanakomana wangu, kuti tigodya, tife hedu.”
Okunafoɔ no kaa sɛ, “Meka Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn no ntam sɛ, menni burodo sini koraa wɔ fie. Na deɛ mewɔ wɔ efie yɛ asikyiresiam kakra ne ngo toa ase kakraa bi. Mekɔpɛɛ mmabaa kakra a mede bɛnoa aduane a ɛtwa toɔ, na me ne me babarima adi, na afei yɛawuwu.”
13 Eria akati kwaari, “Usatya. Enda kumba undoita sezvawareva. Asi tanga wandibikira chingwa chiduku pane zvaunazvo ugouya nacho kwandiri, mushure ugozvigadzirira iwe nomwanakomana wako.
Nanso, Elia ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Nsuro! Kɔ na kɔnoa aduane a ɛtwa toɔ no. Nanso, ɛyɛ a, to burodo ketewa bi di ɛkan ma me ansa. Na ɛno akyi no, aduane bebree bɛka ama wo ne wo ba no.
14 Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, ‘Furawu iri muhari imomo haizoperi uye mafuta ari muhari haazoperi kusvikira zuva iro richanayiswa mvura panyika naJehovha.’”
Na deɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn ka ne sɛ, ‘Daa asikyiresiam ne ngo pii bɛka wɔ wo adekoradeɛ no mu kɔsi ɛberɛ a Awurade bɛma osuo atɔ, ama nnɔbaeɛ anyini bio.’”
15 Akaenda akandoita sezvaakanga audzwa naEria. Saka zvokudya zvaEria zvakavapo mazuva ose uyewo nezvomukadzi nemhuri yake.
Na ɔyɛɛ sɛdeɛ Elia kaeɛ no. Enti ɔno, Elia ne ne ba no kɔɔ so dii asikyiresiam ne ngo a na ɔwɔ no ara nna bebree.
16 Furawu yaiva muhari haina kupera uye mafuta aiva muhari haana kupera, sezvazvakanga zvarehwa neshoko raJehovha rakataurwa naEria.
Ɛberɛ biara na wɔwɔ asikyiresiam ne ngo a ɛbɛso wɔn di wɔ wɔn adekoradeɛ mu sɛdeɛ Awurade nam Elia so hyɛɛ ho bɔ no.
17 Kwapera nguva yakati, mwanakomana womukadzi, muridzi weimba, akarwara. Kurwara kwake kwakanyanya kwazvo, pakupedzisira akamira kufema.
Akyire yi, ɔbaa no babarima no yareeɛ. Yadeɛ no kɔɔ so ara kɔsii sɛ abɔfra no wuiɛ.
18 Mukadzi akati kuna Eria, “Ndakakutadzireiko, munhu waMwari? Wakauya here kuzondirangaridza chivi changu nokuuraya mwanakomana wangu?”
Ɔbaa no bisaa Elia sɛ, “Ao, Onyankopɔn onipa, ɛdeɛn na woayɛ me yi? Wobaa ha sɛ worebɛtwe mʼaso wɔ me bɔne a mayɛ ho enti na woakum me ba yi?”
19 Eria akapindura akati, “Ndipe mwanakomana wako kuno.” Akamutora kubva mumaoko ake, akamutakura akaenda naye kuimba yapamusoro yaaigara, akamuradzika pamubhedha wake.
Nanso, Elia ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Fa wo ba no ma me.” Na ɔgyee abarimaa no firii ne nsam. Ɔde no kɔɔ ɛsoro dan bi a wɔsoɛɛ no mu no mu. Ɔde owufoɔ no too ne mpa so.
20 Ipapo akadanidzira kuna Jehovha akati, “Haiwa, Jehovha Mwari wangu, mauyisawo here dambudziko pachirikadzi iyi yandiri kugara nayo, nokuuraya mwanakomana wayo?”
Elia su guu Awurade so sɛ, “Ao, Awurade, adɛn enti na wode saa awerɛhoɔ yi abɛto okunafoɔ yi a ɔde ne fie asom me hɔhoɔ yi so, na wama ne ba awuo yi?”
21 Ipapo akazvambarara pamusoro pomukomana katatu akadanidzira kuna Jehovha akati, “Haiwa Jehovha Mwari wangu, itai kuti mweya womukomana uyu udzokere maari!”
Ɔbutuu abɔfra no so mprɛnsa, su guu Awurade so sɛ, “Ao Awurade, me Onyankopɔn, mesrɛ, ma abɔfra yi nnya nkwa bio.”
22 Jehovha akanzwa kudanidzira kwaEria, mweya womukomana ukadzokera maari, akararama.
Awurade tiee Elia mpaeɛbɔ, na abɔfra no nyaa nkwa bio.
23 Eria akatora mwana akamutakura achibuda mumba maakanga ari akaenda naye mumba huru. Akamupa kuna mai vake akati, “Tarirai, mwanakomana wenyu mupenyu!”
Enti, Elia de no firi soro hɔ brɛɛ ne maame, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Hwɛ, wo ba no anyane.”
24 Ipapo mukadzi akati kuna Eria, “Zvino ndazoziva kuti muri munhu waMwari uye kuti shoko raJehovha rinobuda mumuromo menyu nderechokwadi.”
Na ɔbaa no ka kyerɛɛ Elia sɛ, “Afei, mahunu pefee sɛ woyɛ Onyankopɔn onipa, na Awurade kasa fa wo so ampa.”
