1 Kings 18:26 (YLT) Young's Literal Translation

1 And the days are many, and the word of Jehovah hath been unto Elijah in the third year, saying, `Go, appear unto Ahab, and I give rain on the face of the ground;`
2 and Elijah goeth to appear unto Ahab. And the famine is severe in Samaria,
3 and Ahab calleth unto Obadiah, who is over the house -- and Obadiah hath been fearing Jehovah greatly,
4 and it cometh to pass, in Jezebel's cutting off the prophets of Jehovah, that Obadiah taketh a hundred prophets, and hideth them, fifty men in a cave, and hath sustained them with bread and water --
5 and Ahab saith unto Obadiah, `Go through the land, unto all fountains of waters, and unto all the brooks, if so be we find hay, and keep alive horse and mule, and do not cut off any of the cattle.`
6 And they apportion to themselves the land, to pass over into it; Ahab hath gone in one way by himself, and Obadiah hath gone in another way by himself;
7 and Obadiah is in the way, and lo, Elijah -- to meet him; and he discerneth him, and falleth on his face, and saith, `Art thou he -- my lord Elijah?`
8 And he saith to him, `I am; go, say to thy lord, Lo, Elijah.`
9 And he saith, `What have I sinned, that thou art giving thy servant into the hand of Ahab -- to put me to death?
10 Jehovah thy God liveth, if there is a nation and kingdom whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee; and they said, He is not, then he caused the kingdom and the nation to swear, that it doth not find thee;
11 and now, thou art saying, Go, say to thy lord, Lo, Elijah;
12 and it hath been, I go from thee, and the Spirit of Jehovah doth lift thee up, whither I know not, and I have come to declare to Ahab, and he doth not find thee, and he hath slain me; and thy servant is fearing Jehovah from my youth.
13 `Hath it not been declared to my lord that which I have done in Jezebel's slaying the prophets of Jehovah, that I hide of the prophets of Jehovah a hundred men, fifty by fifty in a cave, and sustained them with bread and water?
14 and now thou art saying, Go, say to my lord, Lo, Elijah -- and he hath slain me!`
15 And Elijah saith, `Jehovah of Hosts liveth, before whom I have stood, surely to-day I appear unto him.`
16 And Obadiah goeth to meet Ahab, and declareth it to him, and Ahab goeth to meet Elijah,
17 and it cometh to pass at Ahab's seeing Elijah, that Ahab saith unto him, `Art thou he -- the troubler of Israel?`
18 And he saith, `I have not troubled Israel, but thou and the house of thy father, in your forsaking the commands of Jehovah, and thou goest after the Baalim;
19 and now, send, gather unto me all Israel, unto the mount of Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the shrine, four hundred -- eating at the table of Jezebel.`
20 And Ahab sendeth among all the sons of Israel, and gathereth the prophets unto the mount of Carmel;
21 and Elijah cometh nigh unto all the people, and saith, `Till when are ye leaping on the two branches? -- if Jehovah is God, go after Him; and if Baal, go after him;` and the people have not answered him a word.
22 And Elijah saith unto the people, `I -- I have been left a prophet of Jehovah -- by myself; and the prophets of Baal are four hundred and fifty men;
23 and let them give to us two bullocks, and they choose for themselves the one bullock, and cut it in pieces, and place it on the wood, and place no fire; and I -- I prepare the other bullock, and have put it on the wood, and fire I do not place; --
24 and ye have called in the name of your god, and I -- I call in the name of Jehovah, and it hath been, the god who answereth by fire -- He is the God.` And all the people answer and say, `Good is the word.`
25 And Elijah saith to the prophets of Baal, `Choose for you the one bullock, and prepare first, for ye are the multitude, and call ye in the name of your god, and place no fire.`
26 And they take the bullock that one gave to them, and prepare, and call in the name of Baal from the morning even till the noon, saying, `O Baal, answer us!` and there is no voice, and there is none answering; and they leap on the altar that one had made.
27 And it cometh to pass, at noon, that Elijah playeth on them, and saith, `Call with a loud voice, for he is a god, for he is meditating, or pursuing, or on a journey; it may be he is asleep, an doth awake.`
28 And they call with a loud voice, and cut themselves, according to their ordinance, with swords and with spears, till a flowing of blood is on them;
29 and it cometh to pass, at the passing by of the noon, that they feign themselves prophets till the going up of the present, and there is no voice, and there is none answering, and there is none attending.
30 And Elijah saith to all the people, `Come nigh unto me;` and all the people come nigh unto him, and he repaireth the altar of Jehovah that is broken down;
31 and Elijah taketh twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of Jehovah was, saying, `Israel is thy name;`
32 and he buildeth with the stones an altar, in the name of Jehovah, and maketh a trench, as about the space of two measures of seed, round about the altar.
33 And he arrangeth the wood, and cutteth in pieces the bullock, and placeth it on the wood, and saith, `Fill ye four pitchers of water, and pour on the burnt-offering, and on the wood;
34 and he saith, `Do it a second time;` and they do it a second time; and he saith, `Do it a third time;` and they do it a third time;
35 and the water goeth round about the altar, and also, the trench he hath filled with water.
36 And it cometh to pass, at the going up of the evening-present, that Elijah the prophet cometh nigh and saith, `Jehovah, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, to-day let it be known that Thou art God in Israel, and I Thy servant, that by Thy word I have done the whole of these things;
37 answer me, O Jehovah, answer me, and this people doth know that Thou art Jehovah God; and Thou hast turned their heart backward.`
38 And there falleth a fire of Jehovah, and consumeth the burnt-offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and the water that is in the trench it hath licked up.
39 And all the people see, and fall on their faces, and say, `Jehovah, He is the God, Jehovah, He is the God.`
40 And Elijah saith to them, `Catch ye the prophets of Baal; let not a man escape of them;` and they catch them, and Elijah bringeth them down unto the stream Kishon, and doth slaughter them there.
41 And Elijah saith to Ahab, `Go up, eat and drink, because of the sound of the noise of the shower.`
42 And Ahab goeth up to eat, and to drink, and Elijah hath gone up unto the top of Carmel, and he stretcheth himself out on the earth, and he placeth his face between his knees,
43 and saith unto his young man, `Go up, I pray thee, look attentively the way of the sea;` and he goeth up and looketh attentively, and saith, `There is nothing;` and he saith, `Turn back,` seven times.
44 And it cometh to pass, at the seventh, that he saith, `Lo, a little thickness as the palm of a man is coming up out of the sea.` And he saith, `Go up, say unto Ahab, `Bind -- and go down, and the shower doth not restrain thee.`
45 And it cometh to pass, in the meantime, that the heavens have become black -- thick clouds and wind -- and the shower is great; and Ahab rideth, and goeth to Jezreel,
46 and the hand of Jehovah hath been on Elijah, and he girdeth up his loins, and runneth before Ahab, till thine entering Jezreel.
1 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS after many H7227 AMP days H3117 NMP , that the word H1697 W-CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS came H1961 VQQ3MS to H413 PREP Elijah H452 in the third H7992 D-MFS year H8141 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Go H1980 VQI2MS , show thyself H7200 unto H413 PREP Ahab H256 ; and I will send H5414 rain H4306 NMS upon H5921 PREP the earth H127 D-NFS .
2 And Elijah H452 went H1980 W-VQY3MS to show himself H7200 unto H413 PREP Ahab H256 . And there was a sore H2389 AMS famine H7458 in Samaria H8111 .
3 And Ahab H256 called H7121 W-VQY3MS Obadiah H5662 , which H834 RPRO was the governor H5921 PREP of his house H1004 . (Now Obadiah H5662 feared H1961 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS greatly H3966 ADV :
4 For it was H1961 W-VQY3MS so , when Jezebel H348 cut off H3772 the prophets H5030 of the LORD H3068 EDS , that Obadiah H5662 took H3947 W-VQY3MS a hundred H3967 MFS prophets H5030 , and hid H2244 them by fifty H2572 MMP in a cave H4631 , and fed H3557 them with bread H3899 NMS and water H4325 . )
5 And Ahab H256 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Obadiah H5662 , Go H1980 VQI2MS into the land H776 B-NFS , unto H413 PREP all H3605 NMS fountains H4599 of water H4325 D-CMS , and unto H413 PREP all H3605 NMS brooks H5158 : peradventure H194 ADV we may find H4672 VNQ3MS grass H2682 NMS to save the horses and mules alive H2421 , that we lose H3772 not H3808 all the beasts H929 .
6 So they divided H2505 the land H776 D-GFS between them to pass H5674 throughout it : Ahab H256 went H1980 VQQ3MS one H259 MMS way H1870 B-NMS by himself H905 L-CMS-3MS , and Obadiah H5662 went H1980 VQQ3MS another H259 MMS way H1870 B-NMS by himself H905 .
7 And as Obadiah H5662 was H1961 W-VQY3MS in the way H1870 , behold H2009 IJEC , Elijah H452 met H7122 him : and he knew H5234 him , and fell H5307 W-VQY3MS on H5921 PREP his face H6440 CMP-3MS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Art thou H859 that H2088 DPRO my lord H113 Elijah H452 ?
8 And he answered H559 W-VQY3MS him , I H589 PPRO-1MS am : go H1980 VQI2MS , tell H559 W-VQY3MS thy lord H113 , Behold H2009 IJEC , Elijah H452 is here .
9 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , What H4100 IPRO have I sinned H2398 VQQ1MS , that H3588 CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS wouldest deliver H5414 VQPMS thy servant H5650 into the hand H3027 B-CFS of Ahab H256 , to slay H4191 me ?
10 As the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS liveth H2416 AMS , there is H3426 ADV no H518 PART nation H1471 NMS or kingdom H4467 , whither H834 RPRO my lord H113 hath not H3808 ADV sent H7971 VQQ3MS to seek H1245 thee : and when they said H559 W-VQQ3MP , He is not H369 there ; he took an oath H7650 of the kingdom H4467 and nation H1471 , that H3588 CONJ they found H4672 thee not H3808 NADV .
11 And now H6258 W-ADV thou H859 PPRO-2MS sayest H559 , Go H1980 VQI2MS , tell H559 thy lord H113 , Behold H2009 IJEC , Elijah H452 is here .
12 And it shall come to pass H1961 W-VQQ3MS , as soon as I H589 PPRO-1MS am gone H1980 VQY1MS from thee , that the Spirit H7307 W-GFS of the LORD H3068 EDS shall carry H5375 thee whither H834 RPRO I know H3045 not H3808 ADV ; and so when I come H935 and tell H5046 L-VHFC Ahab H256 , and he cannot H3808 W-NADV find H4672 thee , he shall slay H2026 me : but I thy servant H5650 fear H3372 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS from my youth H5271 .
13 Was it not H3808 I-NPAR told H5046 my lord H113 what H834 RPRO I did H6213 VQQ1MS when Jezebel H348 slew H2026 the prophets H5030 of the LORD H3068 EDS , how I hid H2244 a hundred H3967 MFS men H376 NMS of the LORD\'s prophets H5030 by fifty H2572 MMP in a cave H4631 , and fed H3557 them with bread H3899 NMS and water H4325 ?
14 And now H6258 W-ADV thou H859 PPRO-2MS sayest H559 , Go H1980 VQI2MS , tell H559 thy lord H113 , Behold H2009 IJEC , Elijah H452 is here : and he shall slay H2026 me .
15 And Elijah H452 said H559 W-VQY3MS , As the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 liveth H2416 AMS , before H6440 L-CMP-3MS whom H834 RPRO I stand H5975 VQQ1MS , I will surely H3588 CONJ show myself H7200 unto H413 him today H3117 D-AMS .
16 So Obadiah H5662 went H1980 W-VQY3MS to meet H7122 Ahab H256 , and told H5046 him : and Ahab H256 went H1980 W-VQY3MS to meet H7122 Elijah H452 .
17 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when Ahab H256 saw H7200 K-VQFC Elijah H452 , that Ahab H256 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Art thou H859 he that H2088 DPRO troubleth H5916 Israel H3478 LMS ?
18 And he answered H559 W-VQY3MS , I have not H3808 NADV troubled H5916 Israel H3478 ; but H518 PART thou H859 PPRO-2MS , and thy father H1 NMS \'s house H1004 W-NMS , in that ye have forsaken H5800 the commandments H4687 of the LORD H3068 EDS , and thou hast followed H1980 W-VQQ3FS Baalim H1168 .
19 Now H6258 W-ADV therefore send H7971 , and gather H6908 to H413 PREP me all H3605 NMS Israel H3478 unto H413 PREP mount H2022 CMS Carmel H3760 , and the prophets H5030 of Baal H1168 four H702 MFS hundred H3967 BFP and fifty H2572 W-MMP , and the prophets H5030 of the groves H842 four H702 MFS hundred H3967 BFP , which eat H398 at Jezebel H348 \'s table H7979 .
20 So Ahab H256 sent H7971 W-VQY3MS unto all H3605 B-CMS the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , and gathered the prophets together H6908 unto H413 PREP mount H2022 CMS Carmel H3760 .
21 And Elijah H452 came H5066 unto H413 PREP all H3605 NMS the people H5971 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , How long H5704 PREP halt H6452 ye H859 PPRO-2MS between H5921 PREP two H8147 ONUM opinions H5587 ? if H518 PART the LORD H3068 EDS be God H430 D-NAME-4MP , follow H1980 VQI2MP him : but if H518 PART Baal H1168 , then follow H1980 VQI2MP him . And the people H5971 answered H6030 VQQ3MP him not H3808 W-NPAR a word H1697 .
22 Then said H559 W-VQY3MS Elijah H452 unto H413 PREP the people H5971 , I H589 PPRO-1MS , even I only H905 L-CMS-1MS , remain H3498 a prophet H5030 of the LORD H3068 L-EDS ; but Baal H1168 \'s prophets H5030 are four H702 MFS hundred H3967 BFP and fifty H2572 W-MMP men H376 NMS .
23 Let them therefore give H5414 us two H8147 ONUM bullocks H6499 ; and let them choose H977 one H259 bullock H6499 for themselves , and cut it in pieces H5408 , and lay H7760 it on H5921 PREP wood H6086 , and put H7760 VQY3MP no H3808 NADV fire H784 W-NMS under : and I H589 W-PPRO-1MS will dress H6213 the other H259 bullock H6499 , and lay H5414 it on H5921 PREP wood H6086 , and put H7760 no H3808 NADV fire H784 W-NMS under :
24 And call H7121 ye on the name H8034 B-CMS of your gods H430 , and I H589 will call H7121 on the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 EDS : and the God H430 D-EDP that H834 RPRO answereth H6030 VQY3MS by fire H784 , let him H1931 PPRO-3MS be H1961 W-VQQ3MS God H430 D-EDP . And all H3605 NMS the people H5971 answered H6030 W-VQY3MS and said H559 W-VQY3MP , It is well H2896 AMS spoken H1697 .
25 And Elijah H452 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto the prophets H5030 of Baal H1168 , Choose H977 you one H259 D-AMS bullock H6499 for yourselves , and dress H6213 it first H7223 ; for H3588 CONJ ye H859 PPRO-2MS are many H7227 ; and call H7121 on the name H8034 B-CMS of your gods H430 , but put H7760 no H3808 NADV fire H784 W-NMS under .
26 And they took H3947 W-VQY3MP the bullock H6499 which H834 RPRO was given H5414 VQQ3MS them , and they dressed H6213 W-EMS it , and called H7121 W-VQY3MP on the name H8034 of Baal H1168 from morning H1242 even until H5704 W-PREP noon H6672 , saying H559 L-VQFC , O Baal H1168 , hear H6030 us . But there was no H369 W-NPAR voice H6963 CMS , nor H369 W-NPAR any that answered H6030 . And they leaped H6452 upon H5921 PREP the altar H4196 D-NMS which H834 RPRO was made H6213 VQQ3MS .
27 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS at noon H6672 , that Elijah H452 mocked H2048 them , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Cry H7121 aloud H6963 : for H3588 CONJ he H1931 PPRO-3MS is a god H430 EDP ; either H3588 CONJ he is talking H7879 , or H3588 CONJ he is pursuing H7873 , or H3588 CONJ he is in a journey H1870 , or peradventure H194 ADV he H1931 PPRO-3MS sleepeth H3463 , and must be awaked H3364 .
28 And they cried H7121 aloud H6963 B-NMS , and cut themselves H1413 after their manner H4941 with knives H2719 and lancets H7420 , till H5704 PREP the blood H1818 NMS gushed out H8210 upon H5921 PREP-3MP them .
29 And it came to pass H1961 W-VPY3MS , when midday H6672 was past H5674 , and they prophesied H5012 until H5704 PREP the time of the offering H5927 L-VQFC of the evening sacrifice H4503 , that there was neither H369 W-ADV voice H6963 CMS , nor H369 W-NPAR any to answer H6030 , nor H369 W-NPAR any that regarded H7182 .
30 And Elijah H452 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto all H3605 L-CMS the people H5971 , Come near H5066 unto H413 PREP-1MS me . And all H3605 CMS the people H5971 came near H5066 unto H413 PREP-3MS him . And he repaired H7495 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 EDS that was broken down H2040 .
31 And Elijah H452 took H3947 W-VQY3MS twelve H8147 MFS stones H68 NFP , according to the number H4557 of the tribes H7626 of the sons H1121 of Jacob H3290 , unto H413 PREP-3MS whom H834 RPRO the word H1697 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS came H1961 VQQ3MS , saying H559 L-VQFC , Israel H3478 shall be H1961 VQY3MS thy name H8034 :
32 And with H854 PREP the stones H68 he built H1129 an altar H4196 NMS in the name H8034 B-CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS : and he made H6213 W-VQY3MS a trench H8585 NFS about H5439 ADV the altar H4196 , as great as would contain H1004 two measures H5429 of seed H2233 NMS .
33 And he put H6186 the wood H6086 in order , and cut H5408 the bullock H6499 in pieces , and laid H7760 W-VQY3MS him on H5921 PREP the wood H6086 , and said H559 , Fill H4390 four H702 barrels H3537 with water H4325 , and pour H3332 it on H5921 PREP the burnt sacrifice H5930 , and on H5921 PREP the wood H6086 .
34 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Do it the second time H8138 . And they did it the second time H8138 . And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Do it the third time H8027 . And they did it the third time H8027 .
35 And the water H4325 D-CMS ran H1980 W-VQY3MP round about H5439 ADV the altar H4196 ; and he filled H4390 VPQ3MS the trench H8585 also H1571 W-CONJ with water H4325 D-CMS .
36 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS at the time of the offering H5927 B-CFP of the evening sacrifice H4503 , that Elijah H452 the prophet H5030 came near H5066 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , LORD H3068 EDS God H430 NAME-4MP of Abraham H85 , Isaac H3327 , and of Israel H3478 , let it be known H3045 this day H3117 D-AMS that H3588 CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS art God H430 EDP in Israel H3478 , and that I H589 W-PPRO-1MS am thy servant H5650 , and that I have done H6213 VQQ1MS all H3605 NMS these H428 things H1697 at thy word H1697 AMP .
37 Hear H6030 me , O LORD H3068 EDS , hear H6030 me , that this H2088 D-PMS people H5971 may know H3045 that H3588 CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS art the LORD H3068 EDS God H430 D-EDP , and that thou H859 PPRO-2FS hast turned H5437 their heart H3820 CMS-3MP back again H322 .
38 Then the fire H784 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS fell H5307 W-VQY3FS , and consumed H398 W-VQY3FS the burnt sacrifice H5930 , and the wood H6086 , and the stones H68 , and the dust H6083 , and licked up H3897 the water H4325 D-CMS that H834 RPRO was in the trench H8585 .
39 And when all H3605 NMS the people H5971 saw H7200 W-VIY3MS it , they fell H5307 W-VQY3MP on H5921 PREP their faces H6440 CMP-3MP : and they said H559 W-VQY3MP , The LORD H3068 EDS , he H1931 PPRO-3MS is the God H430 D-EDP ; the LORD H3068 EDS , he H1931 PPRO-3MS is the God H430 .
40 And Elijah H452 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto them , Take H8610 the prophets H5030 of Baal H1168 ; let not H408 NPAR one H376 NMS of them H4480 escape H4422 . And they took H8610 them : and Elijah H452 brought them down H3381 to H413 PREP the brook H5158 NMS Kishon H7028 , and slew H7819 them there H8033 ADV .
41 And Elijah H452 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto Ahab H256 , Get thee up H5927 , eat H398 and drink H8354 ; for H3588 CONJ there is a sound H6963 CMS of abundance H1995 of rain H1653 .
42 So Ahab H256 went up H5927 to eat H398 L-VQFC and to drink H8354 WL-VQFC . And Elijah H452 went up H5927 to H413 PREP the top H7218 NMS of Carmel H3760 ; and he cast himself down H1457 upon the earth H776 NFS-3FS , and put H7760 W-VQY3MS his face H6440 CMP-3MS between H996 PREP his knees H1290 ,
43 And said H559 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP his servant H5288 , Go up H5927 now H4994 IJEC , look H5027 VHI2MS toward H1870 the sea H3220 NMS .
