Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1After many days the word of the Lord came to Elias, in the third year, saying: Go and shew thyself to Achab, that I may give rain upon the face of the earth.
1过了许久，到第三年，耶和华的话临到 以利亚 说：「你去，使 亚哈 得见你；我要降雨在地上。」
2And Elias went to shew himself to Achab, and there was a grievous famine in Samaria.
2以利亚 就去，要使 亚哈 得见他。那时， 撒马利亚 有大饥荒；
3And Achab called Abdias the governor of his house: now Abdias feared the Lord very much.
3亚哈 将他的家宰 俄巴底 召了来。（ 俄巴底 甚是敬畏耶和华，
4For when Jezabel killed the prophets of the Lord, he took a hundred prophets and hid them by fifty and fifty in caves, and fed them with bread and water.
4耶洗别 杀耶和华众先知的时候， 俄巴底 将一百个先知藏了，每五十人藏在一个洞里，拿饼和水供养他们。）
5And Achab said to Abdias: Go into the land unto all fountains of waters, and into all valleys, to see if we can find grass, and save the horses and mules, that the beasts may not utterly perish.
5亚哈 对 俄巴底 说：「我们走遍这地，到一切水泉旁和一切溪边，或者找得着青草，可以救活骡马，免得绝了牲畜。」
6And they divided the countries between them, that they might go round about them: Achab went one way, and Abdias another way by himself.
6于是二人分地游行， 亚哈 独走一路， 俄巴底 独走一路。
7And as Abdias was in the way, Elias met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said: Art thou my lord Elias?
7俄巴底 在路上恰与 以利亚 相遇， 俄巴底 认出他来，就俯伏在地，说：「你是我主 以利亚 不是？」
8And he answered: I am. Go, and tell thy master: Elias is here.
8回答说：「是。你去告诉你主人说， 以利亚 在这里 。」
9And he said: What have I sinned, that thou wouldst deliver me thy servant into the hand of Achab, that he should kill me?
9俄巴底 说：「仆人有什么罪，你竟要将我交在 亚哈 手里，使他杀我呢？
10As the Lord thy God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee: and when all answered: He is not here: he took an oath of every kingdom and nation, because thou wast not found.
10我指着永生耶和华—你的 神起誓，无论哪一邦哪一国，我主都打发人去找你。若说你没有在那里，就必使那邦那国的人起誓说，实在是找不着你。
11And now thou sayest to me: Go, and tell thy master: Elias is here.
11现在你说，要去告诉你主人说， 以利亚 在这里 ；
12And when I am gone from thee, the spirit of the Lord will carry thee into a place that I know not: and I shall go in and tell Achab, and he not finding thee, will kill me: but thy servant feareth the Lord from his infancy.
12恐怕我一离开你，耶和华的灵就提你到我所不知道的地方去。这样，我去告诉 亚哈 ，他若找不着你，就必杀我；仆人却是自幼敬畏耶和华的。
13Hath it not been told thee, my lord, what I did when Jezabel killed the prophets of the Lord, how I hid a hundred men of the prophets of the Lord, by fifty and fifty in caves, and fed them with bread and water?
13耶洗别 杀耶和华众先知的时候，我将耶和华的一百个先知藏了，每五十人藏在一个洞里，拿饼和水供养他们，岂没有人将这事告诉我主吗？
14And now thou sayest: Go, and tell thy master: Elias is here: that he may kill me.
14现在你说，要去告诉你主人说， 以利亚 在这里 ，他必杀我。」
15And Elias said: As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whose face I stand, this day I will shew myself unto him.
15以利亚 说：「我指着所事奉永生的万军之耶和华起誓，我今日必使 亚哈 得见我。」
16Abdias therefore went to meet Achab, and told him: and Achab came to meet Elias.
16于是 俄巴底 去迎着 亚哈 ，告诉他； 亚哈 就去迎着 以利亚 。
17And when he had seen him, he said: Art thou he that troublest Israel?
17亚哈 见了 以利亚 ，便说：「使 以色列 遭灾的就是你吗？」
18And he said: I have not troubled Israel, but thou and thy father’s house, who have forsaken the commandments of the Lord, and have followed Baalim.
18以利亚 说：「使 以色列 遭灾的不是我，乃是你和你父家；因为你们离弃耶和华的诫命，去随从 巴力 。
19Nevertheless send now, and gather unto me all Israel, unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, who eat at Jezabel’s table.
19现在你当差遣人，招聚 以色列 众人和事奉 巴力 的那四百五十个先知，并 耶洗别 所供养事奉 亚舍拉 的那四百个先知，使他们都上 迦密山 去见我。」
20Achab sent to all the children of Israel, and gathered together the prophets unto mount Carmel.
20亚哈 就差遣人招聚 以色列 众人和先知都上 迦密山 。
21And Elias coming to all the people, said: How long do you halt between two sides? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people did not answer him a word.
21以利亚 前来对众民说：「你们心持两意要到几时呢？若耶和华是 神，就当顺从耶和华；若 巴力 是 神，就当顺从 巴力 。」众民一言不答。
22And Elias said again to the people: I only remain a prophet of the Lord: but the prophets of Baal are four hundred and fifty men.
22以利亚 对众民说：「作耶和华先知的只剩下我一个人； 巴力 的先知却有四百五十个人。
23Let two bullocks be given us, and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces and lay it upon wood, but put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under it.
23当给我们两只牛犊， 巴力 的先知可以挑选一只，切成块子，放在柴上，不要点火；我也预备一只牛犊放在柴上，也不点火。
24Call ye on the names of your gods, and I will call on the name of my Lord: and the God that shall answer by fire, let him be God. And all the people answering said: A very good proposal.
24你们求告你们神的名，我也求告耶和华的名。那降火显应的神，就是 神。」众民回答说：「这话甚好。」
25Then Elias said to the prophets of Baal: Choose you one bullock and dress it first, because you are many: and call on the names of your gods, but put no fire under.
25以利亚 对 巴力 的先知说：「你们既是人多，当先挑选一只牛犊，预备好了，就求告你们神的名，却不要点火。」
26And they took the bullock which he gave them, and dressed it: and they called on the name of Baal from morning even till noon, saying: O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered: and they leaped over the altar that they had made.
26他们将所得的牛犊预备好了，从早晨到午间，求告 巴力 的名说：「 巴力 啊，求你应允我们！」却没有声音，没有应允的。他们在所筑的坛四围踊跳。
27And when it was now noon, Elias jested at them, saying: Cry with a louder voice: for he is a God, and perhaps he is talking, or is in an inn, or on a journey, or perhaps he is asleep, and must be awaked.
27到了正午， 以利亚 嬉笑他们，说：「大声求告吧！因为他是神，他或默想，或走到一边，或行路，或睡觉，你们当叫醒他。」
28So they cried with a loud voice, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till they were all covered with blood.
28他们大声求告，按着他们的规矩，用刀枪自割、自刺，直到身体流血。
29And after midday was past, and while they were prophesying, the time was come of offering sacrifice, and there was no voice heard, nor did any one answer, nor regard them as they prayed:
29从午后直到献晚祭的时候，他们狂呼乱叫，却没有声音，没有应允的，也没有理会的。
30Elias said to all the people: Come ye unto me. And the people coming near unto him, he repaired the altar of the Lord, that was broken down:
30以利亚 对众民说：「你们到我这里来。」众民就到他那里。他便重修已经毁坏耶和华的坛。
31And he took twelve stones according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the Lord came, saying: Israel shall be thy name.
31以利亚 照 雅各 子孙支派的数目，取了十二块石头（耶和华的话曾临到 雅各 说：「你的名要叫 以色列 」），
32And he built with the stones an altar to the name of the Lord: and he made a trench for water, of the breadth of two furrows round about the altar.
32用这些石头为耶和华的名筑一座坛，在坛的四围挖沟，可容谷种二细亚，
33And he laid the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid it upon the wood.
33又在坛上摆好了柴，把牛犊切成块子放在柴上，对众人说：「你们用四个桶盛满水，倒在燔祭和柴上」；
34And he said: Fill four buckets with water, and pour it upon the burnt offering, and upon the wood. And again he said: Do the same the second time. And when they had done it the second time, he said: Do the same also the third time. And they did so the third time.
34又说：「倒第二次。」他们就倒第二次；又说：「倒第三次。」他们就倒第三次。
35And the water run round about the altar, and the trench was filled with water.
35水流在坛的四围，沟里也满了水。
36And when it was now time to offer the holocaust, Elias the prophet came near and said: O Lord God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Israel, shew this day that thou art the God of Israel, and I thy servant, and that according to thy commandment I have done all these things.
36到了献 晚 祭的时候，先知 以利亚 近前来，说：「 亚伯拉罕 、 以撒 、 以色列 的 神，耶和华啊，求你今日使人知道你是 以色列 的 神，也知道我是你的仆人，又是奉你的命行这一切事。
37Hear me, O Lord, hear me: that this people may learn, that thou art the Lord God, and that thou hast turned their heart again.
37耶和华啊，求你应允我，应允我！使这民知道你—耶和华是 神，又知道是你叫这民的心回转。」
38Then the fire of the Lord fell, and consumed the holocaust, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.
38于是，耶和华降下火来，烧尽燔祭、木柴、石头、尘土，又烧干沟里的水。
39And when all the people saw this, they fell on their faces, and they said: The Lord he is God, the Lord he is God.
39众民看见了，就俯伏在地，说：「耶和华是 神！耶和华是 神！」
40And Elias said to them: Take the prophets of Baal, and let not one of them escape. And when they had taken them, Elias brought them down to the torrent Cison, and killed them there.
40以利亚 对他们说：「拿住 巴力 的先知，不容一人逃脱！」众人就拿住他们。 以利亚 带他们到 基顺河 边，在那里杀了他们。
41And Elias said to Achab: Go up, eat, and drink: for there is a sound of abundance of rain.
41以利亚 对 亚哈 说：「你现在可以上去吃喝，因为有多雨的响声了。」
42Achab went up to eat and drink: and Elias went up to the top of Carmel, and casting himself down upon the earth put his face between his knees,
42亚哈 就上去吃喝。 以利亚 上了 迦密山 顶，屈身在地，将脸伏在两膝之中；
43And he said to his servant: Go up, and look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said: There is nothing. And again he said to him: Return seven times.
43对仆人说：「你上去，向海观看。」仆人就上去观看，说：「没有什么。」他说：「你再去观看。」如此七次。
44And at the seventh time, behold, a little cloud arose out of the sea like a man’s foot. And he said: Go up and say to Achab: Prepare thy chariot and go down, lest the rain prevent thee.
44第七次仆人说：「我看见有一小片云从海里上来，不过如人手那样大。」 以利亚 说：「你上去告诉 亚哈 ，当套车下去，免得被雨阻挡。」
45And while he turned himself this way and that way, behold the heavens grew dark, with clouds, and wind, and there fell a great rain. And Achab getting up went away to Jezrahel:
45霎时间，天因风云黑暗，降下大雨。 亚哈 就坐车往 耶斯列 去了。
46And the hand of the Lord was upon Elias, and he girded up his loins and ran before Achab, till he came to Jezrahel.
46耶和华的灵降在 以利亚 身上，他就束上腰，奔在 亚哈 前头，直到 耶斯列 的城门。
