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.
