< Boqorradii Kowaad 17 >
1 Oo Eliiyaah oo ahaa reer Tishbii, oo ka mid ahaa kuwii Gilecaad degganaa ayaa Axaab ku yidhi, Waxaan Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil ee aan hortiisa taaganahay noloshiisa ugu dhaartay inaan dharab iyo roob midna sannadahan la arki doonin, sidaan leeyahay mooyaane.
And Elijah the Tishbite, from the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, “As the Lord lives, the God of Israel, in whose sight I stand, there shall not be dew or rain during these years, except by the words of my mouth.”
2 Markaasaa haddana waxaa isagii u yimid Eraygii Rabbiga oo leh,
And the word of the Lord came to him, saying:
3 Halkan ka tag, oo u leexo xagga bari, oo waxaad ku ag dhuumataa durdurka Keriid ee ku hor yaal Webi Urdun.
“Withdraw from here, and go toward the east, and hide at the torrent Cherith, which is opposite the Jordan.
4 Oo waxaad ka cabbi doontaa durdurka, oo tukayaashana waan ku amray inay halkaas kugu quudiyaan.
And there you shall drink from the torrent. And I have instructed the ravens to feed you there.”
5 Sidaas daraaddeed wuu tegey, oo wuxuu yeelay sidii erayga Rabbigu ku yidhi, waayo, wuu tegey oo ag joogi jiray durdurka Keriid ee ku hor yaal Webi Urdun.
Therefore, he went and acted in accord with the word of the Lord. And going away, he settled by the torrent Cherith, which is opposite the Jordan.
6 Oo tukayaasha ayaa subaxdii u keeni jiray kibis iyo hilib, fiidkiina kibis iyo hilib, oo biyona durdurkuu ka cabbi jiray.
And the ravens carried bread and flesh to him in the morning, and likewise bread and flesh in the evening. And he drank from the torrent.
7 Oo in yar dabadeed ayaa durdurkii iska engegay, maxaa yeelay, dalku roob ma lahayn.
But after some days, the torrent dried up. For it had not rained upon the earth.
8 Markaasaa waxaa isagii u yimid Eraygii Rabbiga oo leh,
Then the word of the Lord came to him, saying:
9 Kac oo waxaad tagtaa Sarefta oo ay reer Siidoon leeyihiin, oo halkaas iska deg; oo bal eeg, naag carmal ah oo halkaas joogta waxaan ku amray inay ku quudiso.
“Rise up, and go to Zarephath of the Sidonians, and dwell there. For I have instructed a widowed woman there to feed you.”
10 Sidaas daraaddeed wuu kacay, oo wuxuu tegey Sarefta, oo markuu magaaladii iriddeedii yimid waxaa halkaas joogtay naag carmal ah oo xaabo guranaysa; oo intuu u yeedhay ayuu ku yidhi iyadii, Waan ku baryayaaye, wuxoogaa biyo ah weel iigu keen aan cabbee.
He rose up and went away to Zarephath. And when he had arrived at the gate of the city, he saw the widowed woman collecting wood, and he called to her. And he said to her, “Give me a little water in a vessel, so that I may drink.”
11 Oo markay u sii socotay inay u keento ayuu u yeedhay oo ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye waxaad gacanta iigu soo qaaddaa in yar oo kibis ah.
And as she was going to bring it, he called out after her, saying, “Bring me also, I beg you, a morsel of bread in your hand.”
12 Iyana waxay tidhi, Waxaan Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah noloshiisa ugu dhaartay inaanan kibis haysan innaba, laakiinse waxaan haystaa sacab muggiis oo jidhiidh ah oo weel ku jira, iyo in yar oo saliid ah oo kusad ku jirta, oo bal eeg, laba qori baan u guranayaa si aan intaan gurigayga galo ugu diyaariyo aniga iyo wiilkayga, dabadeedna aan cunno oo aan dhimannee.
And she responded: “As the Lord your God lives, I have no bread, except a handful of flour in a jar, and a little oil in a bottle. See, I am collecting a couple of sticks, so that I may go in and make it for myself and my son, so that we may eat it and die.”
13 Markaasaa Eliiyaah ku yidhi iyadii, Ha cabsane tag oo yeel sidaad tidhi, laakiinse marka hore ii soo samee in yar oo kibis ah oo ii keen, dabadeedna u samee adiga iyo wiilkaaga.
And Elijah said to her: “Do not be afraid. But go and do as you have said. Yet truly, first make for me, from the same flour, a little bread baked under ashes, and bring it to me. Then afterward, make some for yourself and for your son.
14 Waayo, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu leeyahay, Weelka jidhiidha ahu idlaan maayo, kusadda saliidda ahuna idin gabi mayso ilaa maalinta Rabbigu dhulka roob ku soo daayo.
For thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: ‘The jar of flour will not fail, nor the bottle of oil be diminished, until the day when the Lord will grant rain upon the face of the earth.’”
15 Markaasay tagtay oo waxay yeeshay sidii Eliiyaah ku yidhi, oo iyadii iyo isagii iyo reerkeediiba maalmo badan bay wax cunayeen.
She went and acted in accord with the word of Elijah. And he ate, and she and her household ate. And from that day,
16 Oo weelkii jidhiidha ahaa ma uu idlaan, kusaddii saliidda ahaydna ma ay gabin, oo waxay ahaatay siduu ahaa eraygii Rabbigu u soo dhiibay Eliiyaah.
the jar of flour did not fail, and the bottle of oil was not diminished, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by the hand of Elijah.
17 Oo waxyaalahaas dabadood ayaa naagtii guriga lahayd wiilkeedii bukooday, oo xataa neef keliyahu kuma hadhin, maxaa yeelay, bukaankiisu aad buu u xumaa.
Now it happened that, after these things, the son of the woman who was the mother of the family became ill. And the sickness was very powerful, so that no breath remained in him.
18 Markaasay Eliiyaah ku tidhi, War nin yahow Ilaah, maxaa inoo dhexeeya? War ma waxaad iigu timid inaad dembigayga i soo xusuusisid oo aad wiilkayga dishid?
Therefore, she said to Elijah: “What is there between you and me, O man of God? Have you entered to me, so that my iniquities would be remembered, and so that you would put to death my son?”
19 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Naa bal wiilkaaga ii keen. Oo intuu isagii ka qaaday xabadkeedii ayuu kor ula baxay qowladdii uu isagu degganaa, oo wuxuu saaray sariirtiisii.
And Elijah said to her, “Give your son to me.” And he took him from her bosom, and he carried him to an upper room, where he himself was staying. And he placed him on his own bed.
20 Markaasuu Rabbiga u qayshaday, oo ku yidhi, Rabbiyow, Ilaahayow, naagta carmalka ah oo aan la degganahay ma shar baad ku soo dejisay intaad wiilkeedii dishay?
And he cried out to the Lord, and he said, “O Lord, my God, have you even afflicted the widow by whom I am, in a sense, sustained, so that you would put to death her son?”
21 Oo saddex jeer ayuu wiilka korkiisii isku kala bixiyey, oo intuu Rabbiga u qayshaday ayuu yidhi, Rabbiyow, Ilaahayow, waan ku baryayaaye, wiilkan naftiisii mar kale ha ku soo noqoto.
And he stretched himself out beside the boy three times. And he cried out to the Lord and said, “O Lord, my God, let the soul of this boy, I beg you, return to his body.”
22 Markaasaa Rabbigu dhegaystay Eliiyaah codkiisii, oo yarka naftiisii mar kalay ku soo noqotay, wuuna soo noolaaday.
And the Lord heeded the voice of Elijah. And the soul of the boy returned to him, and he revived.
23 Dabadeedna Eliiyaah yarkii buu soo qaaday, oo intuu qowladdii ka soo dejiyey ayuu gurigii keenay, oo u dhiibay hooyadiis; wuxuuna Eliiyaah iyadii ku yidhi, Bal eeg, wiilkaagii waa nool yahaye.
And Elijah took the boy, and he brought him down from the upper room to the lower part of the house. And he gave him to his mother. And he said to her, “See, your son lives.”
24 Markaasaa naagtii waxay Eliiyaah ku tidhi, Haatan waan garanayaa inaad tahay nin Ilaah, iyo inuu run yahay erayga Ilaah oo afkaaga ku jira.
And the woman said to Elijah: “By this, I now realize that you are a man of God, and that the word of the Lord in your mouth is true.”
