1 Kings 17

NEW JERUSALEM	Biblija Hrvatski
1 Elijah the Tishbite, of Tishbe in Gilead, said to Ahab, 'By the life of Yahweh, God of Israel, whom Iserve, there will be neither dew nor rain these coming years unless I give the word.'	1 Ilija Tišbijac, iz Tišbe Gileadske, reče Ahabu: »Živoga mi Jahve, Boga Izraelova, komu služim, neće ovih godina biti ni rose ni kiše, osim na moju zapovijed.«
2 The word of Yahweh came to him,	2 Upućena mu je riječ Jahvina ovako:
3 'Go away from here, go east and hide by the torrent of Cherith, east of the Jordan.	3 »Idi odavde i kreni na istok i sakrij se na potoku Keritu, koji je nasuprot Jordanu.
4 You can drink from the stream, and I have ordered the ravens to bring you food there.'	4 Pit ćeš iz potoka, a gavranima sam zapovjedio da te ondje hrane.«
5 So he set out and did as Yahweh had said; he went and stayed by the torrent of Cherith, east of theJordan.	5 Ode on i učini po riječi Jahvinoj i nastani se na potoku Keritu, nasuprot Jordanu.
6 The ravens brought him bread in the morning and meat in the evening, and he quenched his thirst atthe stream.	6 Gavrani su mu jutrom donosili kruha, a večerom mesa; iz potoka je pio.
7 But after a while the stream dried up, for the country had had no rain.	7 Ali poslije nekog vremena presuši potok, jer nije bilo kiše u svoj zemlji.
8 And then the word of Yahweh came to him,	8 Tada Iliji dođe riječ Jahvina:
9 'Up and go to Zarephath in Sidonia, and stay there. I have ordered a widow there to give you food.'	9 »Ustani, idi u Sarfatu Sidonsku i ondje ostani. Evo, ondje sam zapovjedio jednoj udovici da te hrani.«
10 So he went off to Sidon. And when he reached the city gate, there was a widow gathering sticks.Addressing her he said, 'Please bring a little water in a pitcher for me to drink.'	10 Ustade on i krenu u Sarfatu. Kada je stigao do gradskih vrata, neka je udovica onuda skupljala drva. On joj se obrati i reče: »Donesi mi malo vode u vrču da pijem!«
11 She was on her way to fetch it when he cal ed after her. 'Please', he said, 'bring me a scrap of breadin your hand.'	11 Kad je pošla da donese, on viknu za njom i reče joj: »Donesi mi i malo kruha u ruci!«
12 'As Yahweh your God lives,' she replied, 'I have no baked bread, but only a handful of meal in a jarand a little oil in a jug; I am just gathering a stick or two to go and prepare this for myself and my son to eat, andthen we shall die.'	12 Ona odgovori: »Živoga mi Jahve, tvoga Boga, ja nemam pečena kruha, nemam do pregršti brašna u ćupu i malo ulja u vrču. I evo kupim drva, pa ću otići i ono pripremiti sebi i svome sinu da pojedemo i da umremo.«
13 But Elijah said to her, 'Do not be afraid, go and do as you have said; but first make a little scone of itfor me and bring it to me, and then make some for yourself and for your son.	13 Ali joj Ilija reče: »Ništa se ne boj. Idi i uradi kako si rekla; samo najprije umijesi meni kolačić, pa mi donesi; a onda zgotovi za sebe i za svoga sina.
14 For Yahweh, God of Israel, says this: Jar of meal shal not be spent, jug of oil shall not be emptied,before the day when Yahweh sends rain on the face of the earth.'	14 Jer ovako govori Jahve, Bog Izraelov: ‘U ćupu neće brašna nestati ni vrč se s uljem neće isprazniti sve dokle Jahve ne pusti da kiša padne na zemlju.’«
15 The woman went and did as Elijah told her and they ate the food, she, himself and her son.	15 Ode ona i učini kako je rekao Ilija; i za mnoge dane imadoše jela, ona, on i njen sin.
16 The jar of meal was not spent nor the jug of oil emptied, just as Yahweh had foretold through Elijah.	16 Brašno se iz ćupa nije potrošilo i u vrču nije nestalo ulja, po riječi koju je Jahve rekao preko svoga sluge Ilije.
17 It happened after this that the son of the mistress of the house fel sick; his il ness was so severe thatin the end he expired.	17 Poslije ovih događaja razbolio se sin domaćičin i bolest se njegova jako pogoršala, tako te u njemu nije ostalo daha.
18 And the woman said to Elijah, 'What quarrel have you with me, man of God? Have you come here tobring my sins home to me and to kill my son?'	18 Tada ona reče Iliji: »Što ja imam s tobom, čovječe Božji? Zar si došao k meni da me podsjetiš na moj grijeh i da mi usmrtiš sina?«
19 'Give me your son,' he said and, taking him from her lap, he carried him to the upper room where hewas staying and laid him on his bed.	19 On joj reče: »Daj mi svoga sina« Tada ga uze iz njezina naručja, odnese ga u gornju sobu gdje je stanovao i položi ga na svoju postelju.
20 He cried out to Yahweh, 'Yahweh my God, by kil ing her son do you mean to bring grief even to thewidow who is looking after me?'	20 Tada zavapi Jahvi i reče: »Jahve, Bože moj, zar zaista želiš udovicu koja me ugostila uvaliti u tugu umorivši joj sina?«
21 He stretched himself on the child three times and cried out to Yahweh, 'Yahweh my God, may thesoul of this child, I beg you, come into him again!'	21 Zatim se tri puta pružio nad dječakom zazivajući Jahvu: »Jahve, Bože, učini da se u ovo dijete vrati duša njegova!«
22 Yahweh heard Elijah's prayer and the child's soul came back into his body and he revived.	22 Jahve je uslišio molbu Ilijinu, u dijete se vratila duša i ono oživje.
23 Elijah took the child, brought him down from the upper room into the house, and gave him to hismother. 'Look,' Elijah said, 'your son is alive.'	23 Ilija ga uze, siđe iz gornje sobe u kuću i dade ga njegovoj materi. I reče Ilija: »Evo, tvoj sin živi!«
24 And the woman replied, 'Now I know you are a man of God and the word of Yahweh in your mouth istruth itself.'	24 Žena mu reče: »Sada znam da si ti čovjek Božji i da je riječ Jahvina u tvojim ustima istinita!«
