I Kings 19

Na ka korerotia e Ahapa ki a Ietepere nga mea katoa i mea ai a Iraia, me nga meatanga katoa i tana whakamatenga i nga poropiti katoa ki te hoari.

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

Katahi a Ietepere ka tono tangata ki a Iraia hei ki atu, Kia meatia tenei ki ahau e nga atua, me etahi atu mea, ki te kahore ahau e mea i a koe i tenei takiwa apopo kia rite te mate ki tetahi o ratou i mate ra.

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.

A ka kite ia, na whakatika ana, haere ana, he mea kei mate, a ka tae ki Peerehepa o Hura. Na ka whakarerea e ia tana tangata ki reira.

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.

Ko ia ia i haere ki te koraha, kotahi te ra ki te ara, a ka tae, ka noho i raro i tetahi hunipa: a ka inoi ia mona kia mate ia; a ka mea, Heoi ra, inaianei, e Ihowa, tangohia atu toku wairua; kahore hoki ahau i pai ake i oku matua.

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.

Na ka takoto ia, ka moe i raro i tetahi hunipa; na, ko tetahi anahera e papaki ana i a ia, e mea ana ki a ia, Maranga ki te kai.

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

Na titiro rawa ake ia, ko tetahi keke, he mea tunu ki te pungarehu, me tetahi ipu wai i tona urunga. Na kai ana ia, inu ana, a takoto iho ana ano.

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.

Na ka hoki mai ano te anahera a Ihowa, a ka papaki i a ia, ka mea, Maranga ki te kai; he roa rawa hoki te ara mou, e kore e taea e koe.

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.

Na maranga ana ia, a kai ana, inu ana, a haere ana, me te mau ano te mana o taua kai, e wha tekau nga ra, e wha tekau nga po a tae noa ki Horepa, ki te maunga o te Atua.

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.

Na haere ana ia ki reira ki tetahi ana, a moe ana i reira. Na ka puta mai te kupu a Ihowa ki a ia; i mea ia, E aha ana koe i konei, e Iraia?

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?

A ka mea tera, Nui atu toku hae mo Ihowa, mo te Atua o nga mano; kua whakarerea hoki tau kawenata e nga tama a Iharaira, a ko au aata, wahia iho e ratou, patua iho hoki e ratou au poropiti ki te hoari; a ko ahau, ko ahau rawa anake i mahue; a ke i te rapu ratou i ahau kia whakamatea.

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.

Na ka mea ia, Puta mai, ka tu ki te maunga ki te aroaro o Ihowa. Na ko te haerenga atu o Ihowa, he nui ano te hau, he kaha, e whakakoara ana i nga maunga, e wahi ana i nga kohatu i te aroaro o Ihowa; otiia kahore a Ihowa i roto i te hau: a muri iho i te hau ko te ru; otiia kahore a Ihowa i roto i te ru:

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:

A i muri o te ru ko te ahi; otiia kahore a Ihowa i roto i te ahi: a i muri i te ahi ko te reo ngawari, he mea iti.

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

A, no te rongonga o Iraia ka hipokina e ia tona mata ki tona koroka, a haere ana, tu ana i te kuwaha o te ana. Na ko te putanga mai o tetahi reo ki a ia, ka mea, E aha ana koe i konei, e Iraia?

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?

Ano ra ko tera, Nui atu toku hae mo Ihowa, mo te Atua o nga mano; kua whakarerea hoki tau kawenata e nga tama a Iharaira, ko au aata, wahia iho e ratou, patua iho e ratou au poropiti ki te hoari; a ko ahau, ko ahau rawa anake i mahue; a kei te r apu ratou i ahau kia whakamatea.

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.

Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, Haere, e hoki i tou ara ki te koraha o Ramahiku; a ka tae koe, whakawahia a Hataere hei kingi mo Hiria.

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:

A whakawahia a Iehu tama a Nimihi hei kingi mo Iharaira; me whakawahi ano a Eriha tama a Hapata o Aperemehora hei poropiti i muri i a koe.

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.

Na, ko te hunga e mawhiti i te hoari a Hataere ma Iehu e whakamate; ko te hunga e mawhiti i te hoari a Iehu ma Eriha e whakamate.

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.

Otiia ka whakatoea e ahau maku e whitu nga mano i roto i a Iharaira, ko nga turi katoa kihai ano i tuturi ki a Paara, me nga mangai katoa kihai i kihi i a ia.

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.

Heoi haere atu ana ia i reira, a ka tupono ki a Eriha tama a Hapata, e parau ana ia, me nga kau i nga ioka kotahi tekau ma rua i tona aroaro, ko ia i te tekau ma rua: na haere ana a Iraia i tona taha, a maka ana e ia tona koroka ki runga ki a ia.

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.

Na whakarerea ake e tera nga kau, a rere ana ki te whai i a Iraia, a ka mea, Tukua ahau kia kihi i toku papa, i toku whaea, ka haere ai ki te whai i a koe. Ano ra ko tera ki a ia, Haere, e hoki: i aha hoki ahau ki a koe?

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?

Na hoki ana tera i te whai i a ia, a ka mau ki nga kau o tetahi ioka, patua iho, kohuatia iho o raua kikokiko ki nga mea o nga kau, hoatu ana e ia te kikokiko ki nga tangata, a kainga ana e ratou. Na whakatika ana ia, haere ana ki te whai i a Ir aia, a mahi ana ki a ia.

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.
