1 Mga Hari 17

¹ At si Elias na Thisbita, na sa mga nakikipamayan sa Galaad, ay nagsabi kay Achab: Buhay ang Panginoon, ang Dios ng Israel, na ako'y nakatayo sa harap niya hindi magkakaroon ng hamog o ulan man sa mga taong ito, kundi ayon sa aking salita.

¹ Now Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the settlers of Gilead, said to Ahab, “As the Lord, the God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, surely there shall be neither dew nor rain these years, except by my word.”

³ Umalis ka rito, at lumiko ka sa dakong silanganan, at magkubli ka sa tabi ng batis Cherith na nasa tapat ng Jordan.

³ “Go away from here and turn eastward, and hide yourself by the brook Cherith, which is east of the Jordan.

⁵ Sa gayo'y naparoon siya at ginawa ang ayon sa salita ng Panginoon: sapagka't siya'y pumaroon at tumahan sa tabi ng batis Cherith, na nasa tapat ng Jordan.

⁵ So he went and did according to the word of the Lord, for he went and lived by the brook Cherith, which is east of the Jordan.

⁷ At nangyari, pagkaraan ng sanggayon, na ang batis ay natuyo, sapagka't walang ulan sa lupain.

⁷ It happened after a while that the brook dried up, because there was no rain in the land.

⁹ Ikaw ay bumangon, paroon ka sa Sarepta, na nauukol sa Sidon, at tumahan ka roon: narito, aking inutusan ang isang baong babae roon na pakanin ka.

⁹ “Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and stay there; behold, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you.”

¹¹ At nang siya'y yumayaon upang kumuha, tinawag niya siya, at sinabi, Dalhan mo ako, isinasamo ko sa iyo, ng isang subong tinapay sa iyong kamay.

¹¹ As she was going to get it, he called to her and said, “Please bring me a piece of bread in your hand.”

¹³ At sinabi ni Elias sa kaniya, Huwag kang matakot; yumaon ka, at gawin mo ang iyong sinabi, nguni't igawa mo muna ako ng munting tinapay, at ilabas mo sa akin, at pagkatapos ay gumawa ka para sa iyo at para sa iyong anak.

¹³ Then Elijah said to her, “Do not fear; go, do as you have said, but make me a little bread cake from it first and bring it out to me, and afterward you may make one for yourself and for your son.

¹⁵ At siya'y yumaon, at ginawa ang ayon sa sabi ni Elias: at kumain ang babae, at siya, at ang kaniyang sangbahayan na maraming araw.

¹⁵ So she went and did according to the word of Elijah, and she and he and her household ate for many days.

¹⁷ At nangyari, pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito, na ang anak na lalake ng babae, na may-ari ng bahay ay nagkasakit; at ang kaniyang sakit ay malubha, na walang hiningang naiwan sa kaniya.

¹⁷ Now it came about after these things that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, became sick; and his sickness was so severe that there was no breath left in him.

¹⁹ At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Ibigay mo sa akin ang iyong anak. At kinuha niya sa kaniyang kandungan, at dinala sa silid na kaniyang tinatahanan, at inihiga sa kaniyang sariling higaan.

¹⁹ He said to her, “Give me your son.” Then he took him from her bosom and carried him up to the upper room where he was living, and laid him on his own bed.

²¹ At siya'y umunat sa bata na makaitlo, at dumaing sa Panginoon, at nagsabi, Oh Panginoon kong Dios, idinadalangin ko sa iyo na iyong pabalikin sa kaniya ang kaluluwa ng batang ito.

²¹ Then he stretched himself upon the child three times, and called to the Lord and said, “O Lord my God, I pray You, let this child’s life return to him.”

²³ At kinuha ni Elias ang bata, at ibinaba sa loob ng bahay na mula sa silid, at ibinigay siya sa kaniyang ina: at sinabi ni Elias, Tingnan mo, ang iyong anak ay buhay.

²³ Elijah took the child and brought him down from the upper room into the house and gave him to his mother; and Elijah said, “See, your son is alive.”
