1ΚΑΙ εἶπεν Ἠλιοὺ ὁ προφήτης Θεσβίτης ὁ ἐκ Θεσβῶν τῆς Γαλαὰδ πρὸς Ἀχαάβ· ζῇ Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τῶν δυνάμεων ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραήλ, ᾧ παρέστην ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, εἰ ἔσται τὰ ἔτη ταῦτα δρόσος καὶ ὑετός, ὅτι εἰ μὴ διὰ στόματος λόγου μου.
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!”
2καὶ ἐγένετο ρῆμα Κυρίου πρὸς Ἠλιού·
2Then a revelation from the LORD came to Elijah:
3πορεύου ἐντεῦθεν κατὰ ἀνατολὰς καὶ κρύβηθι ἐν τῷ χειμάρρῳ Χορρὰθ τοῦ ἐπὶ προσώπου τοῦ Ἰορδάνου·
3“Leave here, turn eastward, and hide yourself by the Brook of Cherith, east of the Jordan.
4καὶ ἔσται ἐκ τοῦ χειμάρρου πίεσαι ὕδωρ, καὶ τοῖς κόραξιν ἐντελοῦμαι διατρέφειν σε ἐκεῖ.
4And you are to drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.”
5καὶ ἐποίησεν Ἠλιοὺ κατὰ τὸ ρῆμα Κυρίου, καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἐν τῷ χειμάρρῳ Χορρὰθ ἐπὶ προσώπου τοῦ Ἰορδάνου.
5So Elijah did what the LORD had told him, and he went and lived by the Brook of Cherith, east of the Jordan.
6καὶ οἱ κόρακες ἔφερον αὐτῷ ἄρτους τὸ πρωΐ καὶ κρέα τὸ δείλης, καὶ ἐκ τοῦ χειμάρρου ἔπινεν ὕδωρ.
6The ravens would bring him bread and meat in the morning and evening, and he would drink from the brook.
7καὶ ἐγένετο μεθ᾿ ἡμέρας καὶ ἐξηράνθη ὁ χειμάρρους, ὅτι οὐκ ἐγένετο ὑετὸς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
7Some time later, however, the brook dried up because there had been no rain in the land.
8καὶ ἐγένετο ρῆμα Κυρίου πρὸς Ἠλιού·
8Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah:
9ἀνάστηθι καὶ πορεύου εἰς Σαρεπτὰ τῆς Σιδωνίας· ἰδοὺ ἐντέταλμαι ἐκεῖ γυναικὶ χήρᾳ τοῦ διατρέφειν σε.
9“Get up and go to Zarephath of Sidon, and stay there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you.”
10καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἐπορεύθη εἰς Σαρεπτὰ καὶ ἧλθεν εἰς τὸν πυλῶνα τῆς πόλεως, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐκεῖ γυνὴ χήρα συνέλεγε ξύλα· καὶ ἐβόησεν ὀπίσω αὐτῆς Ἠλιοὺ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ· λαβὲ δή μοι ὀλίγον ὕδωρ εἰς ἄγγος καὶ πίομαι.
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.”
11καὶ ἐπορεύθη λαβεῖν, καὶ ἐβόησεν ὀπίσω αὐτῆς Ἠλιοὺ καὶ εἶπε· λήψῃ δή μοι ψωμὸν ἄρτου τοῦ ἐν τῇ χειρί σου.
11And as she was going to get it, he called to her and said, “Please bring me a piece of bread.”
12καὶ εἶπεν ἡ γυνή· ζῇ Κύριος ὁ Θεός σου, εἰ ἔστι μοι ἐγκρυφίας ἀλλ᾿ ἢ ὅσον δρὰξ ἀλεύρου ἐν τῇ ὑδρίᾳ καὶ ὀλίγον ἔλαιον ἐν τῷ καψάκῃ· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ συλλέξω δύο ξυλάρια καὶ εἰσελεύσομαι καὶ ποιήσω αὐτὸ ἐμαυτῇ καὶ τοῖς τέκνοις μου, καὶ φαγόμεθα καὶ ἀποθανούμεθα.
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.”
13καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὴν Ἠλιού· θάρσει, εἴσελθε καὶ ποίησον κατὰ τὸ ρῆμά σου· ἀλλὰ ποίησόν μοι ἐκεῖθεν ἐγκρυφίαν μικρὸν καὶ ἐξοίσεις μοι ἐν πρώτοις, σαυτῇ δὲ καὶ τοῖς τέκνοις σου ποιήσεις ἐπ᾿ ἐσχάτῳ·
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,
14ὅτι τάδε λέγει Κύριος· ἡ ὑδρία τοῦ ἀλεύρου οὐκ ἐκλείψει καὶ ὁ καψάκης τοῦ ἐλαίου οὐκ ἐλαττονήσει ἕως ἡμέρας τοῦ δοῦναι Κύριον τὸν ὑετὸν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
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.’”
15καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἡ γυνή, καὶ ἐποίησε· καὶ ἤσθιεν αὐτὴ καὶ αὐτὸς καὶ τὰ τέκνα αὐτῆς.
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.
16καὶ ἡ ὑδρία τοῦ ἀλεύρου οὐκ ἐξέλιπε καὶ ὁ καψάκης τοῦ ἐλαίου οὐκ ἠλαττονήθη κατὰ τὸ ρῆμα Κυρίου, ὃ ἐλάλησεν ἐν χειρὶ Ἠλιού.
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.
17καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ ταῦτα καὶ ἠρρώστησεν ὁ υἱὸς τῆς γυναικὸς τῆς κυρίας τοῦ οἴκου, καὶ ἦν ἡ ἀρρωστία αὐτοῦ κραταιὰ σφόδρα, ἕως οὐχ ὑπελείφθη ἐν αὐτῷ πνεῦμα.
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.
18καὶ εἶπε πρὸς Ἠλιού· τί ἐμοὶ καὶ σοί, ἄνθρωπε τοῦ Θεοῦ; εἰσῆλθες πρός με τοῦ ἀναμνῆσαι ἀδικίας μου καὶ θανατῶσαι τὸν υἱόν μου;
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?”
19καὶ εἶπεν Ἠλιοὺ πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα· δός μοι τὸν υἱόν σου. καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ κόλπου αὐτῆς καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ ὑπερῷον, ἐν ᾧ αὐτὸς ἐκάθητο ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἐκοίμισεν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τῆς κλίνης.
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.
20καὶ ἀνεβόησεν Ἠλιού, καὶ εἶπεν· οἴμοι, Κύριε, ὁ μάρτυς τῆς χήρας, μεθ᾿ ἧς ἐγὼ κατοικῶ μετ᾿ αὐτῆς, σὺ κεκάκωκας τοῦ θανατῶσαι τὸν υἱὸν αὐτῆς.
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?”
21καὶ ἐνεφύσησε τῷ παιδαρίῳ τρὶς καὶ ἐπεκαλέσατο τὸν Κύριον καὶ εἶπε· Κύριε ὁ Θεός μου, ἐπιστραφήτω δὴ ἡ ψυχὴ τοῦ παιδαρίου τούτου εἰς αὐτόν.
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!”
22καὶ ἐγένετο οὕτως, καὶ ἀνεβόησε τὸ παιδάριον.
22And the LORD listened to the voice of Elijah, and the child’s life returned to him, and he lived.
23καὶ κατήγαγεν αὐτὸ ἀπὸ τοῦ ὑπερῴου εἰς τὸν οἶκον καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὸ τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ· καὶ εἶπεν Ἠλιού· βλέπε, ζῇ ὁ υἱός σου.
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.
24καὶ εἶπεν ἡ γυνὴ πρὸς Ἠλιού· ἰδοὺ ἔγνωκα ὅτι σὺ ἄνθρωπος Θεοῦ καὶ ρῆμα Κυρίου ἐν τῷ στόματί σου ἀληθινόν.
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.”
