1 Wafalme 19
1 Ahabu akamwambia Yezebeli mambo yote ambayo Eliya amefanya na jinsi alivyowaua manabii wote kwa upanga.
καὶ ἀνήγγειλεν Αχααβ τῇ Ιεζαβελ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ πάντα ἃ ἐποίησεν Ηλιου καὶ ὡς ἀπέκτεινεν τοὺς προφήτας ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ
2 Ndipo Yezebeli alipotuma mjumbe kwa Eliya, akisema, “miungu wanifanye hivyo na mimi, na zaidi yake, kama kesho muda kama huu sitayafanya maisha yako kuwa kama mmoja wa hao manabii waliokufa.”
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ιεζαβελ πρὸς Ηλιου καὶ εἶπεν εἰ σὺ εἶ Ηλιου καὶ ἐγὼ Ιεζαβελ τάδε ποιήσαι μοι ὁ θεὸς καὶ τάδε προσθείη ὅτι ταύτην τὴν ὥραν αὔριον θήσομαι τὴν ψυχήν σου καθὼς ψυχὴν ἑνὸς ἐξ αὐτῶν
3 Eliya aliposikia hayo, akaiinuka na akakimbia kwa ajili ya kuokoa maisha yake akaja mpaka Beerisheba, ambao ni mji wa Yuda, na akamwacha mtumishi wake huko.
καὶ ἐφοβήθη Ηλιου καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἀπῆλθεν κατὰ τὴν ψυχὴν ἑαυτοῦ καὶ ἔρχεται εἰς Βηρσαβεε τὴν Ιουδα καὶ ἀφῆκεν τὸ παιδάριον αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ
4 Lakini yeye mwenyewe akaenda mwendo wa siku moja huko jangwani, akaja akakaa chini ya mti wa mretemu. Akajiombea mwenyewe kufa, akasema, “Sasa yatosha, BWANA, ichukue roho yangu, kwa kuwa mimi si mzuri kuliko mababu zangu waliokufa.”
καὶ αὐτὸς ἐπορεύθη ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ὁδὸν ἡμέρας καὶ ἦλθεν καὶ ἐκάθισεν ὑπὸ ραθμ ἓν καὶ ᾐτήσατο τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἀποθανεῖν καὶ εἶπεν ἱκανούσθω νῦν λαβὲ δὴ τὴν ψυχήν μου ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ κύριε ὅτι οὐ κρείσσων ἐγώ εἰμι ὑπὲρ τοὺς πατέρας μου
5 Kwa hiyo akalala chini ya mretemu. Ghafula malaika akamgusa na akamwambia, “Inuka ule.”
καὶ ἐκοιμήθη καὶ ὕπνωσεν ἐκεῖ ὑπὸ φυτόν καὶ ἰδού τις ἥψατο αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἀνάστηθι καὶ φάγε
6 Eliya akatazama, karibu na kichwa chake kulikuwa na mkate uliokuwa umeokwa kwa mkaa na gudulia la maji. Kwa hiyo akala na kunywa na kulala tena.
καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν Ηλιου καὶ ἰδοὺ πρὸς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ ἐγκρυφίας ὀλυρίτης καὶ καψάκης ὕδατος καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἔφαγεν καὶ ἔπιεν καὶ ἐπιστρέψας ἐκοιμήθη
7 Malaika wa BWANA akaja tena mara ya pili akamgusa na kumwambia, “Inuka ule, kwa sababu safari bado ndefu kwako.”
καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν ὁ ἄγγελος κυρίου ἐκ δευτέρου καὶ ἥψατο αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἀνάστα φάγε ὅτι πολλὴ ἀπὸ σοῦ ἡ ὁδός
8 Kwa hiyo akainuka na kula na kunywa, naye akasafiri kwa nguvu ya chakula hicho kwa siku arobaini mchana na usiku hata akafika Horebu, mlima wa Mungu.
καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἔφαγεν καὶ ἔπιεν καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν τῇ ἰσχύι τῆς βρώσεως ἐκείνης τεσσαράκοντα ἡμέρας καὶ τεσσαράκοντα νύκτας ἕως ὄρους Χωρηβ
9 Akaingia kwenye pango akakaa humo. Kisha neno la BWANA likamjia likimwambia, “Unafanya nini hapa, Eliya?”
καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ἐκεῖ εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον καὶ κατέλυσεν ἐκεῖ καὶ ἰδοὺ ῥῆμα κυρίου πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν τί σὺ ἐνταῦθα Ηλιου
10 Eliya akajibu, “Nimeona wivu mwingi kwa BWANA, Mungu wa majeshi, kwa kuwa watu wa Israeli wameliacha agano lako, wameziharibu madhabahu zako, na wamewaua manabii wako kwa upanga. Sasa ni mimi, pekee yangu, nimebaki na wanataka kuichukua roho yangu.
καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου ζηλῶν ἐζήλωκα τῷ κυρίῳ παντοκράτορι ὅτι ἐγκατέλιπόν σε οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ τὰ θυσιαστήριά σου κατέσκαψαν καὶ τοὺς προφήτας σου ἀπέκτειναν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ καὶ ὑπολέλειμμαι ἐγὼ μονώτατος καὶ ζητοῦσι τὴν ψυχήν μου λαβεῖν αὐτήν
11 BWANA akamwambia, “Nenda nje ukasimame kwenye mlima mbele yangu.” Kisha BWANA akapita, na upepo mkali ukaupiga mlima ukavunja miamba katika vipande vipande mbele ya BWANA, lakini BWANA hakuwemo kwenye huo mlima. Kisha baada ya upepo, tetemeko lakaja, lakini BWANA hakuwemo kwenye hilo tetemeko.
καὶ εἶπεν ἐξελεύσῃ αὔριον καὶ στήσῃ ἐνώπιον κυρίου ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἰδοὺ παρελεύσεται κύριος καὶ πνεῦμα μέγα κραταιὸν διαλῦον ὄρη καὶ συντρῖβον πέτρας ἐνώπιον κυρίου οὐκ ἐν τῷ πνεύματι κύριος καὶ μετὰ τὸ πνεῦμα συσσεισμός οὐκ ἐν τῷ συσσεισμῷ κύριος
12 Kisha baada ya tetemeko, moto ukaja, lakini BWANA hakuwemo kwenye moto. Ndipo baada ya moto, sauti ya upole ikaja.
καὶ μετὰ τὸν συσσεισμὸν πῦρ οὐκ ἐν τῷ πυρὶ κύριος καὶ μετὰ τὸ πῦρ φωνὴ αὔρας λεπτῆς κἀκεῖ κύριος
13 Naye Eliya alipoisikia sauti, akafunika uso wake kwa vazi lake, akatoka nje, akasimama kwenye lango la hilo pango. Na sauti ikaja kwake ikisema, “unafanya nini hapa?,
καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἤκουσεν Ηλιου καὶ ἐπεκάλυψεν τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ μηλωτῇ ἑαυτοῦ καὶ ἐξῆλθεν καὶ ἔστη ὑπὸ τὸ σπήλαιον καὶ ἰδοὺ πρὸς αὐτὸν φωνὴ καὶ εἶπεν τί σὺ ἐνταῦθα Ηλιου
14 Eliya akajibu, “nimeona wivu sana kwa ajili ya BWANA, Muungu wa majeshi, kwa kuwa watu wa Israeli wameliacha agano lako, wamezihariibu madhabahu zako, na wamewaua manabii kwa upanga. Sasa, ni mimi pekee yangu, nimebaki na wanajaribu kuichukua roho yangu.”
καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου ζηλῶν ἐζήλωκα τῷ κυρίῳ παντοκράτορι ὅτι ἐγκατέλιπον τὴν διαθήκην σου οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ τὰ θυσιαστήριά σου καθεῖλαν καὶ τοὺς προφήτας σου ἀπέκτειναν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ καὶ ὑπολέλειμμαι ἐγὼ μονώτατος καὶ ζητοῦσι τὴν ψυχήν μου λαβεῖν αὐτήν
15 Kisha BWANA akamwambia, “Nenda, rudi kwa njia yako kwenye jangwa la Dameski, na utakapofika utamtia mafuta Hazaeli awe Mfalme wa Shamu,
καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς αὐτόν πορεύου ἀνάστρεφε εἰς τὴν ὁδόν σου καὶ ἥξεις εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν ἐρήμου Δαμασκοῦ καὶ χρίσεις τὸν Αζαηλ εἰς βασιλέα τῆς Συρίας
16 na utamtia mafuta Yehu mwana wa Nimshi kuwa mfalme wa Israeli, na utamtia mafuta Elisha mwana wa Shafeti wa Abeli Mehola kuwa nabii mahali pako.
καὶ τὸν Ιου υἱὸν Ναμεσσι χρίσεις εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ισραηλ καὶ τὸν Ελισαιε υἱὸν Σαφατ ἀπὸ Αβελμαουλα χρίσεις εἰς προφήτην ἀντὶ σοῦ
17 Itakuwa hivi Yehu atamwua kila mmoja atakayejaribu kutoroka upanga wa Hazaeli, na kwamba Elisha atamwua kila atakayejaribu kukwepa upanga wa Yehu.
καὶ ἔσται τὸν σῳζόμενον ἐκ ῥομφαίας Αζαηλ θανατώσει Ιου καὶ τὸν σῳζόμενον ἐκ ῥομφαίας Ιου θανατώσει Ελισαιε
18 Lakini nitawaacha watu elfu saba katika Israeli kwa ajili yangu, ambao magoti yao hayajawahi kupigwa kwa Baali, na ambao midomo yao haijambusu.”
καὶ καταλείψεις ἐν Ισραηλ ἑπτὰ χιλιάδας ἀνδρῶν πάντα γόνατα ἃ οὐκ ὤκλασαν γόνυ τῷ Βααλ καὶ πᾶν στόμα ὃ οὐ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ
19 Kwa hiyo Eliya akaondoka mahali pale na akamkuta Elisha mwana wa Shafati, akilima na jozi za makisai kumi na mbili mbele yake, na yeye mwenyewe alikuwa akilima na ile jozi ya kumi na mbili. Eliya akaenda mpaka kwa Elisha akamtupia vazi lake juu yake.
καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἐκεῖθεν καὶ εὑρίσκει τὸν Ελισαιε υἱὸν Σαφατ καὶ αὐτὸς ἠροτρία ἐν βουσίν δώδεκα ζεύγη βοῶν ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν τοῖς δώδεκα καὶ ἐπῆλθεν ἐπ’ αὐτὸν καὶ ἐπέρριψε τὴν μηλωτὴν αὐτοῦ ἐπ’ αὐτόν
20 Elisha naye akawaacha wale makisai akamkimbilia Eliya; akamwambia, “Tafadhali naomba nikambusu baba yangu na mama yangu kisha nitakufuata.” Naye Eliya akamwambia, “Rudi, lakini fikiria juu ya kile nilichokufanyia.”
καὶ κατέλιπεν Ελισαιε τὰς βόας καὶ κατέδραμεν ὀπίσω Ηλιου καὶ εἶπεν καταφιλήσω τὸν πατέρα μου καὶ ἀκολουθήσω ὀπίσω σου καὶ εἶπεν Ηλιου ἀνάστρεφε ὅτι πεποίηκά σοι
21 Kwa hiyo Elisha akarudi toka kwa Eliya na akachukua ile jozi ya makisai, akawaua wale wanyama, na akapika ile nyama kwa kuni za ile nira. Kisha akawapa watu wakala. Kisha akaamka, akamfuata Eliya akamtumikia.
καὶ ἀνέστρεψεν ἐξόπισθεν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔλαβεν τὰ ζεύγη τῶν βοῶν καὶ ἔθυσεν καὶ ἥψησεν αὐτὰ ἐν τοῖς σκεύεσι τῶν βοῶν καὶ ἔδωκεν τῷ λαῷ καὶ ἔφαγον καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὀπίσω Ηλιου καὶ ἐλειτούργει αὐτῷ
