1 Kings 19
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
Καὶ ἀνήγγειλεν Ἀχαὰβ τῇ Ἰεζάβελ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ πάντα ἅ ἐποίησεν Ἠλειοὺ καὶ ὡς ἀπέκτεινεν τοὺς προφήτας ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ.
Now Ahab told Jezebel everything that Elijah had done and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword.
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἰεζάβελ πρὸς Ἠλειοὺ καὶ εἶπεν Εἰ σὺ εἶ Ἠλειοὺ καὶ ἐγὼ Ἰεζάβελ, τάδε ποιήσαι μοι ὀ θεὸς καὶ τάδε προσθείη, ὅτι ταύτην τὴν ὥραν αὔριον θήσομαι τὴν ψυχήν σου καθὼς ψυχὴν ἑνὸς ἐξ αὐτῶν.
So Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “May the gods deal with me, and ever so severely, if by this time tomorrow I have not made your life like the lives of those you killed!”
καὶ ἐξοβήθη Ἠλειού, καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἀπῆλθεν κατὰ τὴν ψυχὴν ἐαυτοῦ, καὶ ἔρχεται εἰς Βηρσάβεε γῆν Ἰούδα, καὶ ἀφῆκεν τὸ παιδάριον αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ.
And Elijah was afraid and ran for his life. When he came to Beersheba in Judah, he left his servant there,
καὶ αὐτὸς ἐπορεύθη ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ὁδὸν ἡμέρας, καὶ ἦλθεν καὶ ἐκάθισεν ὑποκάτω ῥαθμέν· καὶ ᾐτήσατο τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἀποθανεῖν καὶ εἶπεν Ἱκανούσθω νῦν, λάβε δὴ τὴν ψυχήν μου ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ, Κύριε, ὅτι οὐ κρείσσων ἐγώ εἰμι ὑπὲρ τοὺς πατέρας μου.
while he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness. He sat down under a broom tree and prayed that he might die. “I have had enough, LORD,” he said. “Take my life, for I am no better than my fathers.”
καὶ ἐκοιμήθη καὶ ὕπνωσεν ἐκεῖ ὑπὸ φυτόν· καὶ ἰδού τις ἥψατο αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἀνάστηθι καὶ φάγε.
Then he lay down under the broom tree and fell asleep. Suddenly an angel touched him and said, “Get up and eat.”
καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν Ἠλειού, καὶ ἰδοὺ πρὸς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ ἐνκρυφίας ὀλυρείτης καὶ καψάκης ὕδατος· καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἔφαγεν καὶ ἔπιεν, καὶ ἐπιστρέψας ἐκοιμήθη.
And he looked around, and there by his head was a cake of bread baked over hot coals, and a jar of water. So he ate and drank and lay down again.
καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου ἐκ δευτέρου, καὶ ἥψατο αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἀνάστα, φάγε· ὅτι πολλὴ ἀπὸ σοῦ ἡ ὁδός.
A second time the angel of the LORD returned and touched him, saying, “Get up and eat, or the journey will be too much for you.”
καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἔφαγεν καὶ ἔπιεν· καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐν τῇ ἰσχύι τῆς βρώσεως ἐκείνης τεσσεράκοντα ἡμέρας καὶ τεσσεράκοντα νύκτας ἕως ὄρους Χωρήβ.
So he got up and ate and drank. And strengthened by that food, he walked forty days and forty nights until he reached Horeb (note: That is, Mount Sinai, or possibly a mountain in the range containing Mount Sinai), the mountain of God.
Καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ἐκεῖ εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον καὶ κατέλυσεν ἐκεῖ· καὶ ἰδοὺ ῥῆμα Κυρίου πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν Τί σὺ ἐνταῦθα, Ἠλειού;
There Elijah entered a cave and spent the night. And the word of the LORD came to him, saying, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
καὶ εἶπεν Ἠλειού Ζηλῶν ἐζήλωκα τῷ κυρίῳ Παντοκράτορι, ὅτι ἐνκατέλιπόν σε οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραήλ· τὰ θυσιαστήριά σου κατέσκαψαν καὶ τοὺς προφήτας σου ἀπέκτειναν εν ῥομφαίᾳ, καὶ ὑπολέλειμμαι ἐγὼ μονώτατος, καὶ ζητοῆσί μου τὴν ψυχὴν λαβεῖν αὐτήν.
“I have been very zealous for the LORD, the God of Hosts,” he replied, “but the Israelites have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I am the only one left, and they are seeking my life as well.”
καὶ εἶπεν Ἐξελεύσῃ αὔριον καὶ στήσῃ ἑνώπιον Κυρίου ἐν τῷ ὄρει· ἰδοὺ παρελεύσεται Κύριος. καὶ πνεῦμα μέγα κραταιὸν διαλῦον ὄρη καὶ συντρῖβον πέτρας ἐνώπιον Κυρίου, ἐν τῷ πνεύματι Κυρίου· καὶ μετὰ τὸ πνεῦμα συνσεισμός, οὐκ ἐν τῷ συνσεισμῷ Κύριος·
Then the LORD said, “Go out and stand on the mountain before the LORD. Behold, the LORD is about to pass by.” And a great and mighty wind tore into the mountains and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake.
καὶ μετὰ τὸν συνσεισμὸν πῦρ, οὐκ ἐν τῷ πυρὶ Κύριος· καὶ μετὰ τὸ πῦρ φωνὴ αὔρας λεπτῆς.
After the earthquake there was a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a still, small voice.
καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἤκουσεν Ἠλειού, καὶ ἐπεκάλυψεν τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ μηλωτῇ ἑαυτοῦ, καὶ ἐξὴλθεν καὶ ἔστη ὑπὸ σπήλαιον· καὶ ἰδοὺ πρὸς αὐτὸν φωνὴ καὶ εἶπεν Τί σὺ ἐνταῦθα, Ἠλειού;
When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his cloak and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Suddenly a voice came to him and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
καὶ εἶπεν Ἠλειού Ζηλῶν ἐζήλωκα τῷ κυρίῳ Παντοκράτορι, ὅτι ἐγκατέλιπόν σε οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραήλ, τὴν διαθήκην σου καὶ τὰ θυσιαστήριά σου καθεῖλαν καὶ τοὺς προφήτας σου ἀπέκτειναν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ, καὶ ὑπολέλιμμαι ἐγὼ μονώτατος, καὶ ζητοῦσι τὴν ψυχήν μου λαβεῖν αὐτήν.
“I have been very zealous for the LORD, the God of Hosts,” he replied, “but the Israelites have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I am the only one left, and they are seeking my life as well.”
καὶ εἶπεν Κύριος πρὸς αὐτόν Πορεύου, ἀνάστρεφε εἰς τὴς ὁδόν σου, καὶ ἥξεις εἰς τὴν ὁρδὸν ἐρήμου Δαμασκοῦ· καὶ ἥξεις καὶ χρίσεις τὸν Ἁζαὴλ εἰς βασιλέα τῆς Συρίας·
Then the LORD said to him, “Go back by the way you came, and go to the Desert of Damascus. When you arrive, you are to anoint Hazael as king over Aram.
καὶ τὸν υἱὸν Εἰοὺ υἱοῦ Ναμεσθεὶ χρίσεις εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ. καὶ τὸν Ἐλεισαῖς υἱὸν Σαφὰρ χρίσεις ἐξ Ἐβαλμαουλὰ προφήτην ἀντὶ σοῦ.
You are also to anoint Jehu son (note: Or grandson; see 2 Kings 9:14.) of Nimshi as king over Israel and Elisha son of Shaphat from Abel-meholah to succeed you as prophet.
καὶ ἔσται τὸν σωζόμενον ἐκ ῥομφαίας Ἁζαὴλ θανατώσει Εἰού, καὶ τὸν σωζόμενον ἐκ ῥομφαίας Εἰοὺ θανατώσει Ἐλεισαῖε.
Then Jehu will put to death whoever escapes the sword of Hazael, and Elisha will put to death whoever escapes the sword of Jehu.
καὶ καταλείχεις ἐν Ἰσραὴλ ἑπτὰ χιλάδας ἀνδρῶν, πάντα γόνατα ἅ οὐκ ὤκλασαν γόνυ τῷ Βάαλ, καὶ πᾶν στόμα ὅ οὐ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ.
Nevertheless, I have reserved seven thousand in Israel—all whose knees have not bowed to Baal (note: Cited in Romans 11:4) and whose mouths have not kissed him.”
Καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἐκεῖθεν, καὶ εὑρίσκει τὸν Ἐλεισαῖε υἱὸν Σαθάτ, καὶ αὐτὸς ἠροτρία ἐν βουςίν· δώδεκα ζεύγη ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν τοῖς δώδεκα· ἐπῆλθεν ἐπ’ αὐτόν, καὶ ἐπέρριχε τὴν μηλωτὴν αὐτοῦ ἐπ’ αὐτόν.
So Elijah departed and found Elisha son of Shaphat. He was plowing with twelve teams of oxen, and he was with the twelfth team. Elijah passed by him and threw his cloak around him.
καὶ κατέλιπεν Ἐλεισαῖε σαῖς τὰς βόας, καὶ κατέδραμεν ὀπίσω Ἠλειοὺ καὶ εἶπεν καταφιλήσω τὸν πατέρα μου καὶ ἀκολουθήσω ὀπίσω σου· καὶ εἶπεν Ἠλειού Ἀνάστρεφε, ὅτι πεποίηκά σοι.
So Elisha left the oxen, ran after Elijah, and said, “Please let me kiss my father and mother goodbye, and then I will follow you.” “Go on back,” Elijah replied, “for what have I done to you?”
καὶ ἀνέστρεχεν ἐξόπιθεν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔλαβεν τὰ ζεύην τῶν βοῶν καὶ ἔθυσεν καὶ ἥψησεν αὐτὰ ἐν τοῖς σκεύσει τῶν βοῶν, καὶ ἔδωκεν τῷ λαῷ καὶ ἔφαγον· καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὀπίσω Ἠλειού, καὶ ἐλειτούργει αὐτῷ.
So Elisha turned back from him, took his pair of oxen, and slaughtered them. Using the oxen’s equipment for fuel, he cooked the meat and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out to follow and serve Elijah.
