1 Kings 19
1 Ahabu sì sọ gbogbo ohun tí Elijah ti ṣe fún Jesebeli àti bí ó ti fi idà pa gbogbo àwọn wòlíì.
And Ahab declares to Jezebel all that Elijah did, and all of how he slew all the prophets by the sword,
2 Nítorí náà Jesebeli rán oníṣẹ́ kan sí Elijah wí pé, “Kí àwọn òrìṣà kí ó ṣe sí mi àti jù bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ pẹ̀lú, bí èmi kò bá ṣe ẹ̀mí rẹ bí ọ̀kan nínú wọn ní ìwòyí ọ̀la.”
and Jezebel sends a messenger to Elijah, saying, “Thus the gods do, and thus do they add—surely about this time tomorrow, I make your life as the life of one of them.”
3 Elijah sì bẹ̀rù, ó sá fún ẹ̀mí rẹ̀. Nígbà tí ó sì dé Beerṣeba ti Juda, ó sì fi ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ níbẹ̀,
And he fears, and rises, and goes for his life, and comes to Beer-Sheba, that [is] Judah’s, and leaves his young man there,
4 nígbà tí òun tìkára rẹ̀ sì lọ ní ìrìn ọjọ́ kan sí aginjù, ó sì wá sí ibi igi ọwọ̀ kan, ó sì jókòó lábẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì gbàdúrà kí òun bá le kú, wí pé, “Mo ti ní tó, Olúwa, gba ẹ̀mí mi kúrò; nítorí èmi kò sàn ju àwọn baba mi lọ.”
and he himself has gone a day’s journey into the wilderness, and comes and sits under a certain broom tree, and desires his soul to die, and says, “Enough, now, O YHWH, take my soul, for I [am] not better than my fathers.”
5 Nígbà náà ni ó dùbúlẹ̀ lábẹ́ igi, ó sì sùn lọ. Sì wò ó, angẹli fi ọwọ́ tọ́ ọ, ó sì wí pé, “Dìde, kí o jẹun.”
And he lies down and sleeps under a certain broom tree, and behold, a messenger is reaching toward him and says to him, “Rise, eat”;
6 Ó sì wò ó yíká, àkàrà tí a dín lórí ẹ̀yín iná, àti orù-omi wà lẹ́bàá orí rẹ̀. Ó sì jẹ, ó sì mu, ó sì tún dùbúlẹ̀.
and he looks attentively, and behold, at his bolster [is] a cake [on] burning stones, and a dish of water, and he eats, and drinks, and turns, and lies down.
7 Angẹli Olúwa sì tún padà wá lẹ́ẹ̀kejì, ó sì tún fi ọwọ́ tọ́ ọ, ó sì wí pé, “Dìde, kí ó jẹun, nítorí ìrìnàjò náà jì fún ọ.”
And the messenger of YHWH turns back a second time, and is reaching toward him, and says, “Rise, eat, for the way is too great for you”;
8 Ó si dìde, ó sì jẹ, ó mu, o sì fi agbára oúnjẹ yìí lọ ní ogójì ọ̀sán àti ogójì òru sí Horebu, òkè Ọlọ́run.
and he rises, and eats, and drinks, and goes in the power of that food [for] forty days and forty nights, to the mountain of God—Horeb.
9 Níbẹ̀, ó lọ sí ibi ihò òkúta, ó sì wọ̀ níbẹ̀. Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ Elijah wá wí pé, “Kí ni ìwọ ń ṣe níhìn-ín yìí, Elijah?”
And he comes in there, to the cave, and lodges there, and behold, the word of YHWH [is] to him, and says to him, “What are you [doing] here, Elijah?”
10 Ó sì dáhùn wí pé, “Èmi ti ń jowú fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ-ogun. Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ti kọ májẹ̀mú rẹ sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì ti wó àwọn pẹpẹ rẹ lulẹ̀, wọ́n sì ti fi idà pa àwọn wòlíì rẹ. Èmi nìkan ṣoṣo ni ó kù, wọ́n sì ń wá ẹ̀mí mi láti gbà á kúrò báyìí.”
And he says, “I have been very zealous for YHWH, God of Hosts, for the sons of Israel have forsaken Your covenant—they have thrown down Your altars, and they have slain Your prophets by the sword, and I am left, I, by myself, and they seek my life—to take it.”
11 Olúwa sì wí pé, “Jáde lọ, kí o sì dúró lórí òkè níwájú Olúwa, nítorí Olúwa fẹ́ rékọjá.” Nígbà náà ni ìjì ńlá àti líle sì fa àwọn òkè ńlá ya, ó sì fọ́ àwọn àpáta túútúú níwájú Olúwa; ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa kò sí nínú ìjì náà. Lẹ́yìn ìjì náà ni ìṣẹ̀lẹ̀-ìrilẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa kò sí nínú ìṣẹ̀lẹ̀-ìrilẹ̀ náà.
And He says, “Go out, and you have stood on the mountain before YHWH.” And behold, YHWH is passing by, and a wind—great and strong—is tearing mountains, and shattering rocks before YHWH, [but] YHWH [is] not in the wind; and after the wind [is] a shaking, [but] YHWH [is] not in the shaking;
12 Lẹ́yìn ìṣẹ̀lẹ̀-ìrilẹ̀ náà ni iná wá, ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa kò sí nínú iná náà. Àti lẹ́yìn iná náà ni ohùn kẹ́lẹ́ kékeré wá.
and after the shaking [is] a fire, [but] YHWH [is] not in the fire; and after the fire [is] a voice [like] a small whisper;
13 Nígbà tí Elijah sì gbọ́ ọ, ó sì fi agbádá rẹ̀ bo ojú rẹ̀, ó sì jáde lọ, ó dúró ní ẹnu ihò òkúta náà. Nígbà náà ni ohùn kan tọ̀ ọ́ wá wí pé, “Kí ni ìwọ ń ṣe níhìn-ín, Elijah?”
and it comes to pass, at Elijah’s hearing [it], that he wraps his face in his robe, and goes out, and stands at the opening of the cave, and behold, a voice [speaks] to him, and it says, “What are you [doing] here, Elijah?”
14 Ó sì dáhùn pé, “Èmi ti ń jowú fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ-ogun. Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ti kọ májẹ̀mú rẹ sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì ti wó pẹpẹ rẹ lulẹ̀, wọ́n sì ti fi idà pa àwọn wòlíì rẹ. Èmi nìkan ṣoṣo ni ó kù, wọ́n sì ń gbìyànjú láti pa èmi náà báyìí.”
And he says, “I have been very zealous for YHWH, God of Hosts; for the sons of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, they have thrown down Your altars, and they have slain Your prophets by the sword, and I am left, I, by myself, and they seek my life—to take it.”
15 Olúwa sì wí fún un pé, “Padà lọ sí ọ̀nà tí ìwọ ti wá, kí o sì lọ sí aginjù Damasku. Nígbà tí ìwọ bá dé ibẹ̀, fi òróró yan Hasaeli ní ọba lórí Aramu.
And YHWH says to him, “Go, return on your way to the wilderness of Damascus, and you have gone in, and anointed Hazael for king over Aram,
16 Tún fi òróró yan Jehu ọmọ Nimṣi ní ọba lórí Israẹli, àti kí o fi òróró yan Eliṣa ọmọ Ṣafati, ará Abeli-Mehola ní wòlíì ní ipò rẹ.
and you anoint Jehu son of Nimshi for king over Israel, and you anoint Elisha son of Shaphat, of Abel-Meholah, for prophet in your stead.
17 Jehu yóò pa ẹni tí ó bá sálà kúrò lọ́wọ́ idà Hasaeli, Eliṣa yóò sì pa ẹni tí ó bá sálà kúrò lọ́wọ́ idà Jehu.
And it has been, he who has escaped from the sword of Hazael, Jehu puts to death, and he who has escaped from the sword of Jehu, Elisha puts to death;
18 Síbẹ̀, èmi ti pa ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbàárin ènìyàn mọ́ fún ara mi ní Israẹli, àní gbogbo eékún tí kò ì tí ì kúnlẹ̀ fún òrìṣà Baali, àti gbogbo ẹnu tí kò ì tí ì fi ẹnu kò ó ní ẹnu.”
and I have left in Israel seven thousand—all the knees that have not bowed to Ba‘al, and every mouth that has not kissed him.”
19 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Elijah lọ kúrò níbẹ̀, ó sì rí Eliṣa ọmọ Ṣafati. Ó ń fi àjàgà màlúù méjìlá tulẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀, àti òun náà níwájú èkejìlá. Elijah sì tọ̀ ọ́ lọ, ó sì da agbádá rẹ̀ bò ó.
And he goes there, and finds Elisha son of Shaphat, and he is plowing; twelve yoke [are] before him, and he [is] with the twelfth; and Elijah passes over to him, and casts his robe at him,
20 Nígbà náà ni Eliṣa sì fi àwọn màlúù sílẹ̀, ó sì sáré tọ Elijah lẹ́yìn. Ó wí pé, “Èmi bẹ̀ ọ́, jẹ́ kí èmi lọ fi ẹnu ko baba àti ìyá mi ní ẹnu. Nígbà náà ni èmi yóò tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn.” Elijah sì dáhùn wí pé, “Padà sẹ́yìn, kí ni mo fi ṣe ọ́?”
and he forsakes the ox, and runs after Elijah, and says, “Please let me give a kiss to my father and to my mother, and I go after you.” And he says to him, “Go, turn back, for what have I done to you?”
21 Eliṣa sì fi í sílẹ̀, ó padà sẹ́yìn. Ó sì mú àjàgà màlúù rẹ, ó sì pa wọ́n. Ó sì fi ohun èlò àwọn màlúù náà bọ́ ẹran wọn, ó sì fi fún àwọn ènìyàn, wọ́n sì jẹ. Nígbà náà ni ó sì dìde láti tọ Elijah lẹ́yìn, ó sì ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún un.
And he turns back from after him, and takes the yoke of the ox, and sacrifices it, and with [the] instruments of the ox he has boiled its flesh, and gives to the people, and they eat, and he rises, and goes after Elijah, and serves him.
