1Now Elijah the Tishbite, who was among the settlers of Gilead, said to Ahab, “As surely as the LORD lives—the God of Israel before whom I stand—there will be neither dew nor rain in these years except at my word!”
1基列 寄居的 提斯比 人 以利亞 對 亞哈 說：「我指着所事奉永生耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝起誓，這幾年我若不禱告，必不降露，不下雨。」
2Then a revelation from the LORD came to Elijah:
2耶和華的話臨到 以利亞 說：
3“Leave here, turn eastward, and hide yourself by the Brook of Cherith, east of the Jordan.
3「你離開這裏往東去，藏在 約旦河 東邊的 基立溪 旁。
4And you are to drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.”
4你要喝那溪裏的水，我已吩咐烏鴉在那裏供養你。」
5So Elijah did what the LORD had told him, and he went and lived by the Brook of Cherith, east of the Jordan.
5於是 以利亞 照着耶和華的話，去住在 約旦河 東的 基立溪 旁。
6The ravens would bring him bread and meat in the morning and evening, and he would drink from the brook.
6烏鴉早晚給他叼餅和肉來，他也喝那溪裏的水。
7Some time later, however, the brook dried up because there had been no rain in the land.
7過了些日子，溪水就乾了，因為雨沒有下在地上。
8Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah:
8耶和華的話臨到他說：
9“Get up and go to Zarephath of Sidon, and stay there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you.”
9「你起身往 西頓 的 撒勒法 去，住在那裏；我已吩咐那裏的一個寡婦供養你。」
10So Elijah got up and went to Zarephath. When he arrived at the city gate, there was a widow gathering sticks. Elijah called to her and said, “Please bring me a little water in a cup, so that I may drink.”
10以利亞 就起身往 撒勒法 去。到了城門，見有一個寡婦在那裏撿柴， 以利亞 呼叫她說：「求你用器皿取點水來給我喝。」
11And as she was going to get it, he called to her and said, “Please bring me a piece of bread.”
11她去取水的時候， 以利亞 又呼叫她說：「也求你拿點餅來給我！」
12But she replied, “As surely as the LORD your God lives, I have no bread—only a handful of flour in a jar and a little oil in a jug. Look, I am gathering a couple of sticks to take home and prepare a meal for myself and my son, so that we may eat it and die.”
12她說：「我指着永生耶和華－你的上帝起誓，我沒有餅，罈內只有一把麵，瓶裏只有一點油；我現在找兩根柴，回家要為我和我兒子做 餅 ；我們吃了，死就死吧！」
13“Do not be afraid,” Elijah said to her. “Go and do as you have said. But first make me a small cake of bread from what you have, and bring it out to me. Afterward, make some for yourself and your son,
13以利亞 對她說：「不要懼怕！可以照你所說的去做吧！只要先為我做一個小餅拿來給我，然後為你和你的兒子做餅。
14for this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘The jar of flour will not be exhausted and the jug of oil will not run dry until the day the LORD sends rain upon the face of the earth.’”
14因為耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝如此說：罈內的麵必不減少，瓶裏的油必不缺短，直到耶和華使雨降在地上的日子。」
15So she went and did according to the word of Elijah, and there was food every day for Elijah and the woman and her household.
15婦人就照 以利亞 的話去行。她和她家中的人，並 以利亞 ，吃了許多日子。
16The jar of flour was not exhausted and the jug of oil did not run dry, according to the word that the LORD had spoken through Elijah.
16罈內的麵果不減少，瓶裏的油也不缺短，正如耶和華藉 以利亞 所說的話。
17Later, the son of the woman who owned the house became ill, and his sickness grew worse and worse, until no breath remained in him.
17這事以後，作那家主母的婦人，她兒子病了；病得甚重，以致身無氣息。
18“O man of God,” said the woman to Elijah, “what have you done to me? Have you come to remind me of my iniquity and cause the death of my son?”
18婦人對 以利亞 說：「神人哪，我與你何干？你竟到我這裏來，使 上帝 想念我的罪，以致我的兒子死呢？」
19But Elijah said to her, “Give me your son.” So he took him from her arms, carried him to the upper room where he was staying, and laid him on his own bed.
19以利亞 對她說：「把你兒子交給我。」 以利亞 就從婦人懷中將孩子接過來，抱到他所住的樓中，放在自己的床上，
20Then he cried out to the LORD, “O LORD my God, have You also brought tragedy on this widow who has opened her home to me, by causing her son to die?”
20就求告耶和華說：「耶和華－我的上帝啊，我寄居在這寡婦的家裏，你就降禍與她，使她的兒子死了嗎？」
21Then he stretched himself out over the child three times and cried out to the LORD, “O LORD my God, please let this boy’s life return to him!”
21以利亞 三次伏在孩子的身上，求告耶和華說：「耶和華－我的上帝啊，求你使這孩子的靈魂仍入他的身體！」
22And the LORD listened to the voice of Elijah, and the child’s life returned to him, and he lived.
22耶和華應允 以利亞 的話，孩子的靈魂仍入他的身體，他就活了。
23Then Elijah took the child, brought him down from the upper room into the house, and gave him to his mother. “Look, your son is alive,” Elijah declared.
23以利亞 將孩子從樓上抱下來，進屋子交給他母親，說：「看哪，你的兒子活了！」
24Then the woman said to Elijah, “Now I know that you are a man of God and that the word of the LORD from your mouth is truth.”
24婦人對 以利亞 說：「現在我知道你是神人，耶和華藉你口所說的話是真的。」
