1 Amakhosi 17

¹U-Eliya waseThishibi, owabakhileyo kwaGileyadi, wathi ku-Ahabi: “Kuphila kukaJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli engimi phambi kwakhe, kule minyaka akuyikuba khona mazolo noma imvula, ngaphandle kwezwi lami.

²Izwi likaJehova lafika kuye, lathi:

³Suka lapha, ujike uye ngasempumalanga, ucashe ngasemfudlaneni iKreti ephambi kweJordani.

⁴Uyakuphuza emfudlaneni; ngasengilaya amagwababa ukuthi akuphakele khona.

⁵Wahamba wenza njengezwi likaJehova, ngokuba waya wahlala ngasemfudlaneni iKreti ephambi kweJordani.

⁶Amagwababa amlethela isinkwa nenyama ekuseni, nesinkwa nenyama kusihlwa; waphuza emfuleni.

⁷Kwathi emva kwesikhashana umfula woma, ngokuba kwakungekho mvula ezweni.

⁸Izwi likaJehova lafika kuye, lathi:

⁹Suka uye eSarefati yaseSidoni, uhlale khona; bheka, ngiyalile umfelokazi lapho ukuba akondle.

¹⁰Wasesukuma waya eSarfat. Lapho efika esangweni lomuzi, umfelokazi wayetheza izinkuni; wambiza, wathi: “Ngilethele amanzi ngesitsha, ngiphuze.”

¹¹Kwathi esazolithatha, wambiza, wathi: “Letha ucezu lwesinkwa esandleni sakho.”

¹²Wathi: “Kuphila kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho, anginalo iqebelengwane, kuphela isandla esigcwele isandla sempuphu emphongolweni namafutha amancane embizeni; bheka, ngitheza izinkuni ezimbili ukuba ngingene, ngizilungisele mina nendodana yami, ukuze sizidle, sife.

¹³UElija wasesithi kuye: Ungesabi; hamba wenze njengokusho kwakho; kodwa qala ungenzele iqebelengwana lakho ulilethe kimi bese ulenzela wena lendodana yakho.

¹⁴Ngokuba usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: Impuphu esezitsheni ayiyikuphela, nesigxobo samafutha asiyikuphela, kuze kufike usuku uJehova anisa ngalo imvula emhlabeni.

¹⁵Wahamba wenza njengezwi lika-Eliya; wadla yena, naye, nendlu yakhe, izinsuku eziningi.

¹⁶Impuphu eyayisemgqonyeni ayizange iphele, namafutha ayesezitsheni akazange aphele, njengezwi likaJehova alikhuluma ngenceku ka-Eliya.

¹⁷Ngemva kwalezi zinto indodana yowesifazane, unkosikazi wendlu, yagula; futhi ukugula kwakhe kwaba kubi kakhulu kangangokuthi wayengasekho umoya kuye.

¹⁸Wathi ku-Eliya: “Nginamsebenzi muni nawe muntu kaNkulunkulu na? uyeza kimi ukuze ukhumbule isono sami futhi ubulale indodana yami?

¹⁹Wathi kuye: “Nginike indodana yakho.” Wayisusa esifubeni sakhe, wayiyisa ehhokweni lapho wayehlala khona, wayilalisa embhedeni wakhe.

²⁰Wasebiza uJehova, wathi: “Jehova Nkulunkulu wami, umenzele okubi nomfelokazi engigogobele kuye ngokubulala indodana yakhe na?

²¹Wazelula phezu komntwana kathathu, wabiza uJehova, wathi: “Jehova Nkulunkulu wami, vumela umphefumulo walo mntwana ubuyele kuye.”

²²UJehova wezwa izwi lika-Eliya; umphefumulo womntwana wabuyela kuye, waphila.

²³U-Eliya wayesemthatha umfana, wamehlisa ekamelweni, wamngenisa endlini, wamnikela kunina; uElija wasesithi: Khangela, indodana yakho iyaphila.

²⁴Owesifazana wasesithi kuElija: Khathesi ngiyazi ngalokhu ukuthi ungumuntu kaNkulunkulu lokuthi ilizwi le Nkosi elisemlonyeni wakho liqinisile.
