1 Kings 19

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	LXX
1 Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done--that he had put all the prophets to the sword.	1 και ανηγγειλεν αχααβ τη ιεζαβελ γυναικι αυτου παντα α εποιησεν ηλιου και ως απεκτεινεν τους προφητας εν ρομφαια
2 Jezebel then sent a messenger to Elijah and said, "May the gods do thus and so to me if by this time tomorrow I have not done with your life what was done to each of them."	2 και απεστειλεν ιεζαβελ προς ηλιου και ειπεν ει συ ει ηλιου και εγω ιεζαβελ ταδε ποιησαι μοι ο θεος και ταδε προσθειη οτι ταυτην την ωραν αυριον θησομαι την ψυχην σου καθως ψυχην ενος εξ αυτων
3 Elijah was afraid and fled for his life, going to Beer-sheba of Judah. He left his servant there	3 και εφοβηθη ηλιου και ανεστη και απηλθεν κατα την ψυχην εαυτου και ερχεται εις βηρσαβεε την ιουδα και αφηκεν το παιδαριον αυτου εκει
4 and went a day's journey into the desert, until he came to a broom tree and sat beneath it. He prayed for death: "This is enough, O LORD! Take my life, for I am no better than my fathers."	4 και αυτος επορευθη εν τη ερημω οδον ημερας και ηλθεν και εκαθισεν υπο ραθμ εν και ητησατο την ψυχην αυτου αποθανειν και ειπεν ικανουσθω νυν λαβε δη την ψυχην μου απ' εμου κυριε οτι ου κρεισσων εγω ειμι υπερ τους πατερας μου
5 He lay down and fell asleep under the broom tree, but then an angel touched him and ordered him to get up and eat.	5 και εκοιμηθη και υπνωσεν εκει υπο φυτον και ιδου τις ηψατο αυτου και ειπεν αυτω αναστηθι και φαγε
6 He looked and there at his head was a hearth cake and a jug of water. After he ate and drank, he lay down again,	6 και επεβλεψεν ηλιου και ιδου προς κεφαλης αυτου εγκρυφιας ολυριτης και καψακης υδατος και ανεστη και εφαγεν και επιεν και επιστρεψας εκοιμηθη
7 but the angel of the LORD came back a second time, touched him, and ordered, "Get up and eat, else the journey will be too long for you!"	7 και επεστρεψεν ο αγγελος κυριου εκ δευτερου και ηψατο αυτου και ειπεν αυτω αναστα φαγε οτι πολλη απο σου η οδος
8 He got up, ate and drank; then strengthened by that food, he walked forty days and forty nights to the mountain of God, Horeb.	8 και ανεστη και εφαγεν και επιεν και επορευθη εν τη ισχυι της βρωσεως εκεινης τεσσαρακοντα ημερας και τεσσαρακοντα νυκτας εως ορους χωρηβ
9 There he came to a cave, where he took shelter. But the word of the LORD came to him, "Why are you here, Elijah?"	9 και εισηλθεν εκει εις το σπηλαιον και κατελυσεν εκει και ιδου ρημα κυριου προς αυτον και ειπεν τι συ ενταυθα ηλιου
10 He answered: "I have been most zealous for the LORD, the God of hosts, but the Israelites have forsaken your covenant, torn down your altars, and put your prophets to the sword. I alone am left, and they seek to take my life."	10 και ειπεν ηλιου ζηλων εζηλωκα τω κυριω παντοκρατορι οτι εγκατελιπον σε οι υιοι ισραηλ τα θυσιαστηρια σου κατεσκαψαν και τους προφητας σου απεκτειναν εν ρομφαια και υπολελειμμαι εγω μονωτατος και ζητουσι την ψυχην μου λαβειν αυτην
11 Then the LORD said, "Go outside and stand on the mountain before the LORD; the LORD will be passing by." A strong and heavy wind was rending the mountains and crushing rocks before the LORD--but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake--but the LORD was not in the earthquake.	11 και ειπεν εξελευση αυριον και στηση ενωπιον κυριου εν τω ορει ιδου παρελευσεται κυριος και πνευμα μεγα κραταιον διαλυον ορη και συντριβον πετρας ενωπιον κυριου ουκ εν τω πνευματι κυριος και μετα το πνευμα συσσεισμος ουκ εν τω συσσεισμω κυριος
12 After the earthquake there was fire--but the LORD was not in the fire. After the fire there was a tiny whispering sound.	12 και μετα τον συσσεισμον πυρ ουκ εν τω πυρι κυριος και μετα το πυρ φωνη αυρας λεπτης κακει κυριος
13 When he heard this, Elijah hid his face in his cloak and went and stood at the entrance of the cave. A voice said to him, "Elijah, why are you here?"	13 και εγενετο ως ηκουσεν ηλιου και επεκαλυψεν το προσωπον αυτου εν τη μηλωτη εαυτου και εξηλθεν και εστη υπο το σπηλαιον και ιδου προς αυτον φωνη και ειπεν τι συ ενταυθα ηλιου
14 He replied, "I have been most zealous for the LORD, the God of hosts. But the Israelites have forsaken your covenant, torn down your altars, and put your prophets to the sword. I alone am left, and they seek to take my life."	14 και ειπεν ηλιου ζηλων εζηλωκα τω κυριω παντοκρατορι οτι εγκατελιπον την διαθηκην σου οι υιοι ισραηλ τα θυσιαστηρια σου καθειλαν και τους προφητας σου απεκτειναν εν ρομφαια και υπολελειμμαι εγω μονωτατος και ζητουσι την ψυχην μου λαβειν αυτην
15 "Go, take the road back to the desert near Damascus," the LORD said to him. "When you arrive, you shall anoint Hazael as king of Aram.	15 και ειπεν κυριος προς αυτον πορευου αναστρεφε εις την οδον σου και ηξεις εις την οδον ερημου δαμασκου και χρισεις τον αζαηλ εις βασιλεα της συριας
16 Then you shall anoint Jehu, son of Nimshi, as king of Israel, and Elisha, son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah, as prophet to succeed you.	16 και τον ιου υιον ναμεσσι χρισεις εις βασιλεα επι ισραηλ και τον ελισαιε υιον σαφατ απο αβελμαουλα χρισεις εις προφητην αντι σου
17 If anyone escapes the sword of Hazael, Jehu will kill him. If he escapes the sword of Jehu, Elisha will kill him.	17 και εσται τον σωζομενον εκ ρομφαιας αζαηλ θανατωσει ιου και τον σωζομενον εκ ρομφαιας ιου θανατωσει ελισαιε
18 Yet I will leave seven thousand men in Israel--all those who have not knelt to Baal or kissed him."	18 και καταλειψεις εν ισραηλ επτα χιλιαδας ανδρων παντα γονατα α ουκ ωκλασαν γονυ τω βααλ και παν στομα ο ου προσεκυνησεν αυτω
19 Elijah set out, and came upon Elisha, son of Shaphat, as he was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen; he was following the twelfth. Elijah went over to him and threw his cloak over him.	19 και απηλθεν εκειθεν και ευρισκει τον ελισαιε υιον σαφατ και αυτος ηροτρια εν βουσιν δωδεκα ζευγη βοων ενωπιον αυτου και αυτος εν τοις δωδεκα και επηλθεν επ' αυτον και επερριψε την μηλωτην αυτου επ' αυτον
20 Elisha left the oxen, ran after Elijah, and said, "Please, let me kiss my father and mother good-bye, and I will follow you." "Go back!" Elijah answered. "Have I done anything to you?"	20 και κατελιπεν ελισαιε τας βοας και κατεδραμεν οπισω ηλιου και ειπεν καταφιλησω τον πατερα μου και ακολουθησω οπισω σου και ειπεν ηλιου αναστρεφε οτι πεποιηκα σοι
21 Elisha left him and, taking the yoke of oxen, slaughtered them; he used the plowing equipment for fuel to boil their flesh, and gave it to his people to eat. Then he left and followed Elijah as his attendant.	21 και ανεστρεψεν εξοπισθεν αυτου και ελαβεν τα ζευγη των βοων και εθυσεν και ηψησεν αυτα εν τοις σκευεσι των βοων και εδωκεν τω λαω και εφαγον και ανεστη και επορευθη οπισω ηλιου και ελειτουργει αυτω
