I Kings 19

Wa Akab rakonte Jezabèl, madanm li, tou sa Eli te fè, ki jan li te touye tout pwofèt Baal yo.

And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword.

Jezabèl voye yon misyon bay Eli. Li voye di l': -Se ou, se mwen! Se pou bondye yo ban m' pi gwo pinisyon ki genyen si denmen lè konsa mwen pa fè ou tou sa ou te fè pwofèt yo.

Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to morrow about this time.

Eli vin pè. Li kouri met deyò pou l' sove lavi li. Li pran domestik li avè l', l' ale lavil Bècheba nan peyi Jida. Li kite domestik li a la.

And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beer–sheba, which belongeth to Judah, and left his servant there.

Eli menm mache tout yon jounen nan dezè a. Lè li rete, l' al chita anba lonbray yon ti pye bayawonn. Li mande lanmò, li di: -M' pa kapab ankò, Seyè! Pito m' mouri kont fini. M' pa pi bon pase zansèt mwen yo.

But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.

Li lage kò l' anba pye bayawonn lan. Dòmi pran l'. Antan l' nan dòmi an, yon zanj vin souke l', li di l' konsa: -Leve ou manje!

And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat.

Eli voye je l' gade bò kote l', li wè yon ti pen plat tankou sa yo kwit sou chabon dife ak yon krich dlo bò tèt li. Li manje, li bwè. Lèfini, li kouche, li dòmi ankò.

And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again.

Zanj Seyè a tounen yon dezyèm fwa, li souke Eli, li leve l', li di l': -Leve ou manje, paske vwayaj la pral long anpil pou ou.

And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee.

Eli leve, li manje, li bwè. Manje a ba li kont fòs kouraj pou li mache pandan karant jou, karant nwit jouk li rive sou mòn Orèb, mòn Bondye a.

And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.

Lè li rive, li antre nan yon gwòt, li pase nwit lan la. Seyè a pale ak Eli ankò, li di li: -Eli, sa w'ap fè la a?

And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah?

Eli reponn: -Seyè, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa, mwen renmen ou anpil, mwen pa ka wè sa pèp Izrayèl la ap fè ou la. Li pa kenbe kontra li te pase avè ou la, li kraze lotèl ou yo, li touye tout pwofèt ou yo. Se mwen menm sèl ki rete. Men y'ap chache touye m'.

And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: for the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.

Seyè a di li: -Soti, vin kanpe devan Seyè a sou tèt mòn lan. M' pral pase! Seyè a vin ap pase. Yon gwo van vin leve, li pran vante byen fò, li fann mòn yo, li pete wòch yo devan Seyè a. Men Seyè a pa t' nan van an. Lè van an kase, tè a pran tranble, men Seyè a pa t' nan tranbleman tè a.

And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:

Lè tè a sispann tranble, te gen yon dife, men Seyè a pa t' nan dife a. Apre dife a, yon ti bri tou piti fèt, yon ti briz tou fèb vin ap soufle.

And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

Lè Eli tande l', li kouvri tèt li ak gwo rad li, li soti, li kanpe devan gwòt la. Li tande yon vwa ki di l': -Eli, sa w'ap fè isit la?

And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?

Eli reponn: -Seyè, Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a, mwen renmen ou anpil, mwen pa ka wè sa pèp Izrayèl la ap fè ou la. Li pa kenbe kontra li te pase avè ou la. Li kraze lotèl ou yo. Li touye tout pwofèt ou yo. Se mwen menm sèl ki rete. Men y'ap chache touye m'.

And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: because the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.

Seyè a di li: -Ale non! Pran menm wout ou te pase nan dezè a pou vini isit la, tounen lavil Damas. W'a antre lavil Damas, w'a pran Azayèl, w'a mete l' wa peyi Siri nan non mwen.

And the LORD said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus: and when thou comest, anoint Hazael to be king over Syria:

Apre sa, w'a ale lakay Jeou, pitit gason Nimchi a, w'a mete l' wa peyi Izrayèl nan non mwen. Lèfini, w'a pran Elize, pitit gason Chafat, moun lavil Abèl Meola a, w'a mete l' apa nan non mwen pou l' sèvi pwofèt nan plas ou.

And Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel: and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel–meholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy room.

Tout moun ki va chape anba men Azayèl va tonbe anba men Jeou. Tout moun ki va chape anba men Jeou va tonbe anba men Elize.

And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay: and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay.

Men m'ap kite sètmil (7.000) moun vivan nan peyi Izrayèl la. Se moun ki pa t' mete ajenou devan Baal pou sèvi li, ni ki pa t' bo estati li yo.

Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.

Eli pati. Li jwenn Elize, pitit gason Chafat la, ki t'ap raboure yon jaden avèk douz pè bèf. Elize t'ap raboure dènye pòsyon tè a ak douzyèm pè bèf la lè Eli pwoche bò kote l'. Eli wete gwo rad ki te sou li a, li voye l' sou Elize.

So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth: and Elijah passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him.

Menm lè a, Elize kite bèf li yo, li kouri dèyè Eli. Li di l' konsa: -Kite m' al di manman m' ak papa m' orevwa anvan. Apre sa m'a swiv ou. Eli reponn li: -Ou mèt tounen tounen ou. M' pa rete ou, mwen menm! Kisa m' fè ou la a?

And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee. And he said unto him, Go back again: for what have I done to thee?

Elize kite Eli, li tounen tounen l', li pran yon pè bèf, li touye yo. Li pran bwa jouk yo, li limen dife, li kwit vyann lan. Li bay moun ki te avè l' yo pou yo manje. Lèfini, li pati al jwenn Eli, li rete avè l'.

And he returned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen, and slew them, and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave unto the people, and they did eat. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto him.
