¹Oo markaasaa Axaab wuxuu Yesebeel u sheegay kulli wixii Eliiyaah sameeyey oo dhan, iyo siduu nebiyadii oo dhan seef ugu laayay.

¹And Ahab declareth to Jezebel all that Elijah did, and all how he slew all the prophets by the sword,

²Markaasaa Yesebeel farriin u dirtay Eliiyaah oo ku tidhi, Sidaas iyo si ka sii daranba ilaahyadu ha igu sameeyeen haddaanan berrito hadda oo kale naftaada ka dhigin sidii mid iyaga ka mid ah naftiisii.

²and Jezebel sendeth a messenger unto Elijah, saying, `Thus doth the gods, and thus do they add, surely about this time to-morrow, I make thy life as the life of one of them.`

³Oo isna markuu saas ogaaday ayuu kacay oo naftiisii la cararay, oo wuxuu yimid Bi'ir Shebac oo dalka Yahuudah ka mid ahaa, markaasuu midiidinkiisii halkaas kaga tegey.

³And he feareth, and riseth, and goeth for his life, and cometh in to Beer-Sheba, that [is] Judah`s, and leaveth his young man there,

⁴Laakiinse isagii intii maalin socodkeed ah ayuu cidlada sii dhex maray, oo intuu meel yimid ayuu hoos fadhiistay geed rotem la yidhaahdo; oo wuxuu weyddiistay inuu dhinto, oo yidhi, Rabbiyow, haatan waabase naftayda iga qaad, waayo, anigu kama aan fiicni awowayaashay.

⁴and he himself hath gone into the wilderness a day`s Journey, and cometh and sitteth under a certain retem-tree, and desireth his soul to die, and saith, `Enough, now, O Jehovah, take my soul, for I [am] not better than my fathers.`

⁵Markaasuu jiifsaday, oo hoos seexday geed rotem ah, kolkaasaa waxaa taabtay malaa'ig, oo waxay ku tidhi, Toos oo wax cun.

⁵And he lieth down and sleepeth under a certain retem-tree, and lo, a messenger cometh against him, and saith to him, `Rise, eat;`

⁶Kolkaasuu wax fiiriyey oo wuxuu arkay kibis dhuxul lagu dubay iyo kusad biyo ah oo madaxiisa yaal. Markaasuu wax cunay oo wax cabbay oo haddana wuu iska jiifsaday.

⁶and he looketh attentively, and lo, at his bolster a cake [baken on] burning stones, and a dish of water, and he eateth, and drinketh, and turneth, and lieth down.

⁷Markaasaa malaa'igtii Rabbigii mar labaad u timid, oo intay taabatay ayay ku tidhi, Toos oo wax cun, maxaa yeelay, sodcaalku waa kugu dheer yahay.

⁷And the messenger of Jehovah turneth back a second time, and cometh against him, and saith, `Rise, eat, for the way is too great for thee;`

⁸Markaasuu toosay, oo wax cunay, oo wax cabbay, oo cuntadaas itaalkeedii ayuu ku socday afartan maalmood iyo afartan habeen ilaa uu gaadhay Xoreeb oo ahayd buurtii Ilaah.

⁸and he riseth, and eateth, and drinketh, and goeth in the power of that food forty days and forty nights, unto the mount of God — Horeb.

⁹Oo intuu halkaas yimid ayuu god iska galay, oo halkaasuu baryay, oo bal eeg, waxaa isagii u yimid Eraygii Rabbiga, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Eliiyaah, maxaad halkan ka samaynaysaa?

⁹And he cometh in there, unto the cave, and lodgeth there, and lo, the word of Jehovah [is] unto him, and saith to him, `What — to thee, here, Elijah?`

¹⁰Isna wuxuu yidhi, Anigu Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ciidammada aawadiis ayaan aad ugu hinaasay; waayo, dadkii Israa'iil axdigaagii way ka tageen, oo meelahaagii allabarigana way dumiyeen, oo nebiyadaadiina seef bay ku laayeen; oo aniga keligay ayaa ka hadhay, oo waxay doonayaan inay naftayda iga qaadaan.

¹⁰And he saith, `I have been very zealous for Jehovah, God of Hosts, for the sons of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant — Thine altars they have thrown down, and Thy prophets they have slain by the sword, and I am left, I, by myself, and they seek my life — to take it.`

¹¹Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Ka bax, oo buurta fuul oo Rabbiga hortiisa istaag. Oo bal eeg, waxaa meeshaas soo maray Rabbiga, oo hortiisa ayaa dabayl weyn oo xoog badan buurihii kala jejebisay, dhagxantiina burburisay; laakiinse Rabbigu kuma jirin dabaysha; oo dabayshii dabadeedna waxaa jiray dhulgariir, oo Rabbiguna kuma jirin dhulgariirka.

¹¹And He saith, `Go out, and thou hast stood in the mount before Jehovah.` And lo, Jehovah is passing by, and a wind — great and strong — is rending mountains, and shivering rocks before Jehovah: — not in the wind [is] Jehovah; and after the wind a shaking: — not in the shaking [is] Jehovah;

¹²Oo dhulgariirkii dabadiisna waxaa jiray dab, laakiinse Rabbigu kuma jirin dabka, oo dabkii dabadiisna waxaa jiray cod yar oo gaaban.

¹²and after the shaking a fire: — not in the fire [is] Jehovah; and after the fire a voice still small;

¹³Oo markuu Eliiyaah taas maqlay, ayuu go'iisii wejiga ku duudduubtay oo dibadda u baxay, oo wuxuu istaagay meeshii godka laga soo geliyey. Oo bal eeg, markaasaa waxaa isagii u yimid cod leh, Eliiyaah, maxaad halkan ka samaynaysaa?

¹³and it cometh to pass, at Elijah`s hearing [it], that he wrappeth his face in his robe, and goeth out, and standeth at the opening of the cave, and lo, unto him [is] a voice, and it saith, `What — to thee, here, Elijah?`

¹⁴Isna wuxuu yidhi, Anigu Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ciidammada aawadiis ayaan aad ugu hinaasay, waayo, dadkii Israa'iil axdigaagii way ka tageen, oo meelahaagii allabarigana way dumiyeen, oo nebiyadaadiina seef bay ku laayeen; oo aniga keligay ayaa ka hadhay, oo waxay doonayaan inay naftayda iga qaadaan.

¹⁴And he saith, `I have been very zealous for Jehovah, God of Hosts; for the sons of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant, Thine altars they have thrown down, and Thy prophets they have slain by the sword, and I am left, I, by myself, and they seek my life — to take it.`

¹⁵Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, Tag, oo ku noqo jidkaagii cidlada Dimishaq; oo markaad Dimishaq gaadhid waa inaad Xasaa'eel u boqortaa dalka Suuriya.

¹⁵And Jehovah saith unto him, `Go turn back on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus, and thou hast gone in, and anointed Hazael for king over Aram,

¹⁶Oo Yeehuu ina Nimshiina waxaad u boqortaa dalka Israa'iil; oo Eliishaa ina Shaafaad oo ah reer Aabeel Mehoolaahna waa inaad u subagtaa inuu meeshaadii nebi ka ahaado.

¹⁶and Jehu son of Nimshi thou dost anoint for king over Israel, and Elisha son of Shaphat, of Abel-Meholah, thou dost anoint for prophet in thy stead.

¹⁷Oo markaasay waxay noqon doontaa in ninkii ka baxsada seefta Xasaa'eel uu Yeehuu dili doono; oo kii Yeehuu seeftiisa ka baxsadana waxaa dili doona Eliishaa.

¹⁷`And it hath been, him who is escaped from the sword of Hazael, put to death doth Jehu, and him who is escaped from the sword of Jehu put to death doth Elisha;

¹⁸Laakiinse weliba waxaan daynayaa toddoba kun oo qof oo dalka Israa'iil ku jirta oo aan kulligood Bacal u jilbo joogsan oo aan midkoodna afkiisu Bacal dhunkan.

¹⁸and I have left in Israel seven thousand, all the knees that have not bowed to Baal, and every mouth that hath not kissed him.`

¹⁹Sidaas daraaddeed halkaas wuu ka tegey, oo wuxuu helay Eliishaa ina Shaafaad oo beer ku qodaya laba iyo toban qindi oo dibi ah ee ka horreeya isaga, oo isna wuxuu la jiray kii laba iyo tobnaad; markaasaa Eliiyaah isagii u soo gudbay oo go'iisii ayuu ku dul tuuray.

¹⁹And he goeth thence, and findeth Elisha son of Shaphat, and he is plowing; twelve yoke [are] before him, and he [is] with the twelfth; and Elijah passeth over unto him, and casteth his robe upon him,

²⁰Oo isna dibidii wuu ka tegey, markaasuu ka daba orday Eliiyaah oo ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye aan soo dhunkado aabbahay iyo hooyaday, oo dabadeedna waan ku raacayaa. Markaasuu isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Haddana noqo, waayo, maxaan kugu sameeyey?Markaasuu ka noqday isagii, oo wuxuu kaxeeyey qindigii dibida ahaa, wuuna qalay oo hilibkoodiina ku karshay alaabtii dibida, oo wuxuu siiyey dadkii, oo iyana way cuneen. Markaasuu kacay oo wuxuu raacay Eliiyaah, wuuna u adeegay isagii.

²⁰and he forsaketh the oxen, and runneth after Elijah, and saith, `Let me give a kiss, I pray thee, to my father and to my mother, and I go after thee.` And he saith to him, `Go, turn back, for what have I done to thee?`

²¹Markaasuu ka noqday isagii, oo wuxuu kaxeeyey qindigii dibida ahaa, wuuna qalay oo hilibkoodiina ku karshay alaabtii dibida, oo wuxuu siiyey dadkii, oo iyana way cuneen. Markaasuu kacay oo wuxuu raacay Eliiyaah, wuuna u adeegay isagii.

²¹And he turneth back from after him, and taketh the yoke of oxen, and sacrificeth it, and with instruments of the oxen he hath boiled their flesh, and giveth to the people, and they eat, and he riseth, and goeth after Elijah, and serveth him.
