Sie Tokosra 17
1 Sie mwet palu Tishbe in acn Gilead su inel pa Elijah, el fahk nu sel Tokosra Ahab, “Inen LEUM GOD moul lun Israel su nga kulansupu, nga fahk nu sum lah ac fah wangin aunfong ku af ke yac luo ku tolu, nwe ke pacl se nga fahk in af.”
And Elias the Thesbite of the inhabitants of Galaad said to Achab: As the Lord liveth the God of Israel, in whose sight I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to the words of my mouth.
2 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Elijah,
And the word of the Lord came to him, saying:
3 “Fahla liki acn se inge nu kutulap, ac wikla apkuran nu ke infacl srisrik Cherith, kutulap in Infacl Jordan.
Get thee hence, and go towards the east and hide thyself by the torrent of Carith, which is over against the Jordan,
4 Infacl srisrik soko inge ac fah sot kof nimom, ac nga sap tari won raven in utuk mongo nom nu we.”
And there thou shalt drink of the torrent: and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.
5 Elijah el akos sap lun LEUM GOD, ac som ac muta apkuran nu ke Infacl srisrik Cherith.
So he went, and did according to the word of the Lord: and going, he dwelt by the torrent Carith, which is over against the Jordan.
6 El nim kof ke infacl soko ah, na won raven utuk bread ac ikwa nal ke lotu ac eku nukewa.
And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening, and he drank of tile torrent.
7 Tia paht toko, infacl srisrik soko ah paola, mweyen wanginla af.
But after some time the torrent was dried up, for it had not rained upon the earth.
8 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Elijah,
Then the word of the Lord came to him, saying:
9 “Inge kom som nu ke siti srisrik Zarephath, apkuran nu Sidon, ac muta we. Nga sapkin tari nu sin katinmas se we in kite kom.”
Arise, and go to Sarephta of the Sidonians, and dwell there: for I have commanded a widow woman there to feed thee.
10 Ouinge Elijah el som nu Zarephath, ac ke el tuku nu ke nien utyak nu in siti srisrik sac, sie katinmas el ti etong we. Na Elijah el fahk nu sel, “Nunak munas, use kutu kof an nimuk.”
He arose, and went to Sarephta. And when he was come to the gate of the city, he saw the widow woman gathering sticks, and he called her, and said to her: Give me a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
11 Ac ke el fahsr in eis, Elijah el sifilpa fahk, “Nunak munas, tuh use pac sie ipin flao an nak.”
And when she was going to fetch it he called after her, saying: Bring me also, I beseech thee, a morsel of bread in thy hand.
12 Ac katinmas sac topuk ac fahk, “Inen LEUM GOD lom, God moul, nga fulahk lah wangin ipin flao yuruk. Pwayena ma oasr yuruk pa kitin flao takmwek oan in pol srisrik se, ac kitin kiris in sufa soko. Nga tuku ti etong in tuh munanla kitinmah lula inge nasr. Ac pa inge mongo safla lasr uh, na kut ac masrinsral nwe ke na kut misa.”
And she answered: As the Lord thy God liveth, I have no bread, but only a handful of meal in a pot, and a little oil in a cruse: behold I am gathering two sticks that I may go in and dress it, for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.
13 Na Elijah el fahk nu sel, “Nimet fosrnga. Fahla orala mongo nomtal an, tusruktu oralawin sie srukwal in flao an nak meet ac use nu sik, na kom fah orala ma lula an nomtal.
And Elias said to her: Fear not, but go, and do as thou hast said: but first make for me of the same meal a little hearth cake, and bring it to me: and after make for thyself and thy son.
14 Tuh pa inge ma LEUM GOD lun Israel El fahk: ‘Pol sac ac fah tia pisala ke flao, ku sufa soko ah ke kiris, meet liki len se ma nga, LEUM GOD, ac supwama af.’”
For thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: The pot of meal shall not waste, nor the cruse of oil be diminished, until the day wherein the Lord will give rain upon the face of the earth.
15 Na katinmas sac som oru oana ma Elijah el fahk nu sel ah, na oasr na mongo nalos ke len nukewa.
She went and did according to the word of Elias: and he ate, and she, and her house: and from that day
16 Oana ma LEUM GOD El wulela kac nu sel Elijah, pol sac tiana pisala ke flao, oayapa sufa soko ah tiana pisala ke kiris.
The pot of meal wasted not, and the cruse of oil was not diminished, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke in the hand of Elias.
17 In kutu pacl tok, wen se nutin katinmas sac masak, ac el arulana keoki, na el misa.
And it came to pass after this that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick, and the sickness was very grievous, so that there was no breath left in him.
18 Katinmas sac fahk nu sel Elijah, “Mwet lun God, efu kom ku oru ouinge nu sik? Ya kom tuku nu inge in tuh oru God Elan esamak ma koluk luk, in pwanang wen nutik elan misa?”
And she said to Elias: What have I to do with thee, thou man of God? art thou come to me that my iniquities should be remembered, and that thou shouldst kill my son?
19 Elijah el fahk, “Usalu nu sik.” Na el eisla tulik mukul sac liki inpoun nina kial, ac usalak nu fin twek ah, nu infukil se el muta we, ac likilya fin mwe oan kial.
And Elias said to her: Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him into the upper chamber where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed.
20 Na el pre ke sie pusra lulap ac fahk, “O LEUM GOD luk, efu kom ku filiya mwe ongoiya na upa se nu fin katinmas se inge? El kulang na nu sik ac liyeyuyang, a inge kom uniya wen natul.”
And he cried to the Lord, and said: O Lord my God, hast thou afflicted also the widow, with whom I am after a so maintained, so as to kill her son?
21 Elijah el ona ac asrosrelik fin tulik sac pacl tolu ac pre, “O LEUM GOD luk, akmoulyauk tulik se inge!”
And he stretched, and measured himself upon the child three times, and cried to the Lord, and said: O Lord my God, let the soul of this child, I beseech thee, return into his body.
22 LEUM GOD El porongo pre lal Elijah, ac mongin tulik sac folokyak ac el sifil moulla.
And the Lord heard the voice of Elias: and the soul of the child returned into him, and he revived.
23 Elijah el usya tulik sac nu ten nu yurin nina kial, ac fahk nu sel, “Liye, tulik nutum uh moul!”
And Elias took the child, and brought him down from the upper chamber to the house below, and delivered him to his mother, and said to her: Behold thy son liveth.
24 Nina sac fahk, “Inge nga etu lah kom sie mwet lun God, ac pwayena lah kas lom uh ma sin LEUM GOD me!”
And the woman said to Elias: Now, by this I know that thou art a man of God, and the word of the Lord in thy mouth is true.
