| [1]And Elijah the Tishbite one of the inhabitants of Gilead said unto Ahab, As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall be neither dew nor rain these years, but according to my word. |
[1]Et dixit Elias Thesbites de habitatoribus Galaad ad Achab: Vivit Dominus Deus Israël, in cujus conspectu sto, si erit annis his ros et pluvia, nisi juxta oris mea verba. |
| [2]And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, |
[2]Et factum est verbum Domini ad eum, dicens: |
| [3]Go hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself in the river Cherith, that is over against Jordan, |
[3]Recede hinc, et vade contra orientem, et abscondere in torrente Carith, qui est contra Jordanem, |
| [4]And thou shalt drink of the river: and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there. |
[4]et ibi de torrente bibes: corvisque præcepi ut pascant te ibi. |
| [5]So he went and did according unto the word of the Lord: for he went, and remained by the river Cherith that is over against Jordan. |
[5]Abiit ergo, et fecit juxta verbum Domini: cumque abiisset, sedit in torrente Carith, qui est contra Jordanem. |
| [6]And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening, and he drank of the river. |
[6]Corvi quoque deferebant ei panem et carnes mane, similiter panem et carnes vesperi, et bibebat de torrente. |
| [7]And after a while the river dried up, because there fell no rain upon the earth. |
[7]Post dies autem siccatus est torrens: non enim pluerat super terram. |
| [8]And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, |
[8]Factus est ergo sermo Domini ad eum, dicens: |
| [9]Up , and get thee to Zarephath, which is in Zidon, and remain there: behold, I have commanded a widow there to sustain thee. |
[9]Surge, et vade in Sarephta Sidoniorum, et manebis ibi: præcepi enim ibi mulieri viduæ ut pascat te. |
| [10]So he arose, and went to Zarephath: and when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow was there gathering sticks: and he called her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink. |
[10]Surrexit, et abiit in Sarephta. Cumque venisset ad portam civitatis, apparuit ei mulier vidua colligens ligna, et vocavit eam, dixitque ei: Da mihi paululum aquæ in vase ut bibam. |
| [11]And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand. |
[11]Cumque illa pergeret ut afferret, clamavit post tergum ejus, dicens: Affer mihi, obsecro, et buccellam panis in manu tua. |
| [12]And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but even an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and behold, I am gathering a few sticks for to go in, and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die. |
[12]Quæ respondit: Vivit Dominus Deus tuus, quia non habeo panem, nisi quantum pugillus capere potest farinæ in hydria, et paululum olei in lecytho: en colligo duo ligna ut ingrediar et faciam illum mihi et filio meo, ut comedamus, et moriamur. |
| [13]And Elijah said unto her, Fear not, come, do as thou hast said, but make me thereof a little cake first of all, and bring it unto me, and afterward make for thee, and thy son. |
[13]Ad quam Elias ait: Noli timere, sed vade, et fac sicut dixisti: verumtamen mihi primum fac de ipsa farinula subcinericium panem parvulum, et affer ad me: tibi autem et filio tuo facies postea. |
| [14]For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, The meal in the barrel shall not be wasted, neither shall the oil in the cruse be diminished, unto the time that the Lord send rain upon the earth. |
[14]Hæc autem dicit Dominus Deus Israël: Hydria farinæ non deficiet, nec lecythus olei minuetur usque ad diem in qua Dominus daturus est pluviam super faciem terræ. |
| [15]So she went, and did as Elijah said, and she did eat: so did he and her house for a certain time. |
[15]Quæ abiit, et fecit juxta verbum Eliæ: et comedit ipse, et illa, et domus ejus: et ex illa die |
| [16]The barrel of the meal wasted not, nor the oil was spent out of the cruse, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by the hand of Elijah. |
[16]hydria farinæ non defecit, et lecythus olei non est imminutus, juxta verbum Domini, quod locutus fuerat in manu Eliæ. |
| [17]And after these things, the son of the wife of the house fell sick, and his sickness was so sore, that there was no breath left in him. |
[17]Factum est autem post hæc, ægrotavit filius mulieris matrisfamilias, et erat languor fortissimus, ita ut non remaneret in eo halitus. |
| [18]And she said unto Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? Art thou come unto me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son? |
[18]Dixit ergo ad Eliam: Quid mihi et tibi, vir Dei? Ingressus es ad me, ut rememorarentur iniquitates meæ, et interficeres filium meum? |
| [19]And he said unto her, Give me thy son. and he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into a chamber, where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed. |
[19]Et ait ad eam Elias: Da mihi filium tuum. Tulitque eum de sinu ejus, et portavit in cœnaculum ubi ipse manebat, et posuit super lectulum suum. |
| [20]Then he called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, hast thou punished also this widow, with whom I sojourn, by killing her son? |
[20]Et clamavit ad Dominum, et dixit: Domine Deus meus, etiam ne viduam, apud quam ego utcumque sustentor, afflixisti ut interficeres filium ejus? |
| [21]And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again. |
[21]Et expandit se, atque mensus est super puerum tribus vicibus, et clamavit ad Dominum, et ait: Domine Deus meus, revertatur, obsecro, anima pueri hujus in viscera ejus. |
| [22]Then the Lord heard the voice of Elijah, and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived. |
[22]Et exaudivit Dominus vocem Eliæ: et reversa est anima pueri intra eum, et revixit. |
| [23]And Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the chamber into the house, and delivered him unto his mother, and Elijah said, Behold, thy son liveth. |
[23]Tulitque Elias puerum, et deposuit eum de cœnaculo in inferiorem domum, et tradidit matri suæ, et ait illi: En vivit filius tuus. |
| [24]And the woman said unto Elijah, Now I know that thou art a man of God, and that the word of the Lord in thy mouth is true. |
[24]Dixitque mulier ad Eliam: Nunc in isto cognovi quoniam vir Dei es tu, et verbum Domini in ore tuo verum est. |
