1 Тада рече Ахаву Илија Тесвићанин, један од насељеника галадских: Тако да је жив Господ Бог Израиљев, пред којим стојим, ових година неће бити росе ни дажда докле ја не кажем.
1 Elijah the Tishbite, who was one of the settlers of Gilead, said to Ahab, “As Yahweh, the God of Israel, lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.”
2 Потом дође њему реч Господња говорећи:
2 Then Yahweh’s word came to him, saying,
3 Иди одавде, и обрати се на исток, и сакриј се код потока Хората према Јордану.
3 “Go away from here, turn eastward, and hide yourself by the brook Cherith, that is before the Jordan.
4 И из оног потока пиј, а гавранима сам заповедио да те хране онде.
4 You shall drink from the brook. I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.”
5 И он отиде и учини по речи Господњој, и отишавши стани се код потока Хората, који је према Јордану.
5 So he went and did according to Yahweh’s word, for he went and lived by the brook Cherith that is before the Jordan.
6 И онде му гаврани доношаху хлеба и меса јутром и вечером, а из потока пијаше.
6 The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening; and he drank from the brook.
7 Али после годину дана пресахну поток, јер не беше дажда у земљи.
7 After a while, the brook dried up, because there was no rain in the land.
8 Тада дође њему реч Господња говорећи:
8 Yahweh’s word came to him, saying,
9 Устани, иди у Сарепту сидонску, и седи онде; ево заповедио сам онде жени удовици да те храни.
9 “Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and stay there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to sustain you.”
10 И уставши отиде у Сарепту; и кад дође на врата градска, гле, жена удовица купљаше онде дрва; и он је дозва и рече јој: Донеси ми мало воде у суду да се напијем.
10 So he arose and went to Zarephath; and when he came to the gate of the city, behold, a widow was there gathering sticks. He called to her and said, “Please get me a little water in a jar, that I may drink.”
11 И она пође да донесе; а он је викну и рече: Донеси ми и хлеба мало.
11 As she was going to get it, he called to her and said, “Please bring me a morsel of bread in your hand.”
12 А она рече: Тако да је жив Господ Бог твој, немам печеног хлеба до грст брашна у здели и мало уља у крчагу; и ето купим дрваца да отидем и зготовим себи и сину свом, да поједемо, па онда да умремо.
12 She said, “As Yahweh your God lives, I don’t have anything baked, but only a handful of meal in a jar and a little oil in a jar. Behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and bake it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.”
13 А Илија рече јој: Не бој се, иди, зготови како си рекла; али умеси прво мени један колачић од тога, и донеси ми, па после готови себи и сину свом.
13 Elijah said to her, “Don’t be afraid. Go and do as you have said; but make me a little cake from it first, and bring it out to me, and afterward make some for you and for your son.
14 Јер овако вели Господ Бог Израиљев: Брашно се из зделе неће потрошити нити ће уља у крчагу нестати докле не пусти Господ дажда на земљу.
14 For Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘The jar of meal will not run out, and the jar of oil will not fail, until the day that Yahweh sends rain on the earth.’”
15 И она отиде и учини како рече Илија; и једе и она и он и дом њен годину дана;
15 She went and did according to the saying of Elijah; and she, he, and her household ate many days.
16 брашно се из зделе не потроши нити уља у крчагу неста по речи Господњој, коју рече преко Илије.
16 The jar of meal didn’t run out and the jar of oil didn’t fail, according to Yahweh’s word, which he spoke by Elijah.
17 А после тога разболе се син жени домаћици, и болест његова би врло тешка, тако да издахну.
17 After these things, the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, became sick; and his sickness was so severe that there was no breath left in him.
18 И она рече Илији: Шта је теби до мене, човече Божји? Јеси ли дошао к мени да споменеш безакоње моје и да ми умориш сина?
18 She said to Elijah, “What have I to do with you, you man of God? You have come to me to bring my sin to memory, and to kill my son!”
19 А он јој рече: Дај ми сина свог. И узевши га из наручја њеног однесе га у горњу клет, где он сеђаше, и положи га на постељу своју.
19 He said to her, “Give me your son.” He took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into the room where he stayed, and laid him on his own bed.
20 Тада завапи ка Господу и рече: Господе Боже мој, зар си и ову удовицу код које сам гост тако уцвелио уморивши јој сина?
20 He cried to Yahweh and said, “Yahweh my God, have you also brought evil on the widow with whom I am staying, by killing her son?”
21 И пруживши се над дететом три пута завапи ка Господу говорећи: Господе Боже мој, нека се поврати у дете душа његова.
21 He stretched himself on the child three times, and cried to Yahweh and said, “Yahweh my God, please let this child’s soul come into him again.”
22 И Господ услиши глас Илијин, те се поврати у дете душа његова, и оживе.
22 Yahweh listened to the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.
23 А Илија узевши дете снесе га из горње клети у кућу, и даде га матери његовој, и рече Илија: Види, жив је твој син.
23 Elijah took the child and brought him down out of the room into the house, and delivered him to his mother; and Elijah said, “Behold, your son lives.”
24 А жена рече Илији: Сада знам да си човек Божји и да је реч Господња у твојим устима истина.
24 The woman said to Elijah, “Now I know that you are a man of God, and that Yahweh’s word in your mouth is truth.”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Not even His servant Elias, to whom He sent bread and flesh by the ravens upon a certain occasion had need of this; and yet that a religious widow might be blessed, the servant of God is sent, and he whom God in secret did feed, is fed by the widow.
