列王纪上 17
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
以利亚预言旱灾
17 提斯比人以利亚,就是从基列的提斯比来的(按照《马索拉文本》,“从基列的提斯比来的”作“基列的寄居者”;现参照《七十士译本》翻译),对亚哈说:“我指着我所事奉永活的耶和华以色列的 神起誓,这几年若是没有我的命令,天必不降露,也不下雨。” 2 耶和华的话临到以利亚说: 3 “你离开这里,向东方去,躲藏在约旦河东面的基立溪旁。 4 你要喝那溪里的水,我已经吩咐乌鸦在那里供养你。” 5 于是以利亚去了,照着耶和华的话行了;他去住在约旦河东面的基立溪旁。 6 乌鸦早晨给他送饼和肉来,晚上也送饼和肉来,他也喝那溪里的水。 7 过了一些日子,那溪就干了,因为没有雨下在地上。
面和油用不尽的神迹
8 耶和华的话又临到以利亚说: 9 “你起来,往西顿的撒勒法去,住在那里;我已经吩咐那里的一个寡妇供养你。” 10 于是以利亚起来,往撒勒法去了;他来到城门口的时候,就看见一个寡妇在那里捡柴;以利亚呼叫她,说:“请你用器皿取点水来给我!” 11 她去取水的时候,以利亚又叫她,说:“请你也给我拿点饼来!” 12 她说:“我指着永活的耶和华你的 神起誓,我没有饼,缸里只有一把面粉,瓶里只有一点油。你看我正在捡两根柴,然后回去,为自己和儿子做饼,我们吃完了,就等死。” 13 以利亚对她说:“不要惧怕,照着你所说的去作吧,不过要先为我做一个小饼,拿出来给我,然后才为你自己和儿子做饼。 14 因为耶和华以色列的 神这样说:‘缸里的面粉必不会用完,瓶里的油决不会短缺,直等到耶和华降雨在地面上的日子。’” 15 她就去照着以利亚所说的作了。她和以利亚,以及她的家人,吃了许多日子。 16 缸里的面粉果然没有用完,瓶里的油也没有短缺,正像耶和华借着以利亚所说的话一样。
使寡妇的儿子复活
17 这些事以后,那妇人,就是那个家庭的女主人的儿子病了。他的病情十分严重,以致呼吸都停止了。 18 于是妇人对以利亚说:“神人哪,我跟你有甚么关系呢?你竟到我这里来,使耶和华想起我的罪孽,杀死我的儿子。” 19 以利亚对她说:“把你的儿子交给我吧!”以利亚就从她的怀中把孩子接过来,抱他上到自己所住的楼上去,放在自己的床上。 20 以利亚呼求耶和华说:“耶和华我的 神啊,我寄居在这寡妇的家里,你也降祸与她,使她的儿子死去吗?” 21 然后,以利亚三次伏在孩子的身上,向耶和华呼求说:“耶和华我的 神,求你恢复这孩子的生命吧。” 22 耶和华垂听了以利亚的话,孩子的生命果然恢复,活过来了。 23 以利亚把孩子抱起来,从楼上下到屋子里去,把孩子交给他的母亲;以利亚说:“看,你的儿子活了!” 24 妇人对以利亚说:“现在我知道你是神人,耶和华借着你的口所说的话是真实的。”

New International Version
Elijah Announces a Great Drought
17 Now Elijah(A) the Tishbite, from Tishbe[a] in Gilead,(B) said to Ahab, “As the Lord, the God of Israel, lives, whom I serve, there will be neither dew nor rain(C) in the next few years except at my word.”
Elijah Fed by Ravens
2 Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah: 3 “Leave here, turn eastward and hide(D) in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan. 4 You will drink from the brook, and I have directed the ravens(E) to supply you with food there.”
5 So he did what the Lord had told him. He went to the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and stayed there. 6 The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning(F) and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook.
Elijah and the Widow at Zarephath
7 Some time later the brook dried up because there had been no rain in the land. 8 Then the word of the Lord came to him: 9 “Go at once to Zarephath(G) in the region of Sidon and stay there. I have directed a widow(H) there to supply you with food.” 10 So he went to Zarephath. When he came to the town gate, a widow was there gathering sticks. He called to her and asked, “Would you bring me a little water in a jar so I may have a drink?”(I) 11 As she was going to get it, he called, “And bring me, please, a piece of bread.”
12 “As surely as the Lord your God lives,” she replied, “I don’t have any bread—only a handful of flour in a jar and a little olive oil(J) in a jug. I am gathering a few sticks to take home and make a meal for myself and my son, that we may eat it—and die.”
13 Elijah said to her, “Don’t be afraid. Go home and do as you have said. But first make a small loaf of bread for me from what you have and bring it to me, and then make something for yourself and your son. 14 For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘The jar of flour will not be used up and the jug of oil will not run dry until the day the Lord sends rain(K) on the land.’”
15 She went away and did as Elijah had told her. So there was food every day for Elijah and for the woman and her family. 16 For the jar of flour was not used up and the jug of oil did not run dry, in keeping with the word of the Lord spoken by Elijah.
17 Some time later the son of the woman who owned the house became ill. He grew worse and worse, and finally stopped breathing. 18 She said to Elijah, “What do you have against me, man of God? Did you come to remind me of my sin(L) and kill my son?”
19 “Give me your son,” Elijah replied. He took him from her arms, carried him to the upper room where he was staying, and laid him on his bed. 20 Then he cried(M) out to the Lord, “Lord my God, have you brought tragedy even on this widow I am staying with, by causing her son to die?” 21 Then he stretched(N) himself out on the boy three times and cried out to the Lord, “Lord my God, let this boy’s life return to him!”
22 The Lord heard Elijah’s cry, and the boy’s life returned to him, and he lived. 23 Elijah picked up the child and carried him down from the room into the house. He gave him to his mother(O) and said, “Look, your son is alive!”
24 Then the woman said to Elijah, “Now I know(P) that you are a man of God(Q) and that the word of the Lord from your mouth is the truth.”(R)

1 Kings 17
King James Version
17 And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.
2 And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,
3 Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.
4 And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.
5 So he went and did according unto the word of the Lord: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.
6 And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.
7 And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.
8 And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,
9 Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.
10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
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.
12 And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.
13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.
14 For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth.
15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.
16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by Elijah.
17 And it came to pass after these things, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so sore, that there was no breath left in him.
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?
19 And he said unto her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into a loft, where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed.
20 And he cried unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son?
21 And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again.
22 And the Lord heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.
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, See, thy son liveth.
24 And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this I know that thou art a man of God, and that the word of the Lord in thy mouth is truth.
