8Agho Musengwa Katonda yaakoba Eliya ati: 17:8-16: Luk 4:25-26 9“Situka oje e Zarefathi eky’omu Sidoni, obe eyo. Ndagiire namwandu okukughanga eby’okulya eyo.” 10Agho Eliya yaasituka, yaaja e Zarefathi. Bwe yatuuka ku mulyango ogw’ekibuga, yaayagaanagho namwandu ng’ali kulondereza obuku. Yaamweta, yaamukoba ati: “Nkweghembye ndeetera ku maadhi nhweku.” 11Omukazi bweyali ng’ali kuja okugaleeta, Eliya yaamweta yaamukoba ati: “Nkweghembye ndeeteraayooku ni ku kamere.”
12Omukazi yaakoba ati: “Ndayira mu Musengwa Katonda wo omulamu, nti bwenebwene nzira mere, okutoolaku omuganda ogw’obuwunga bw’engaano mu kaibo, n’otuzigo mu kadoome. Era mpegaano ndi kulondereza ku buku, nje eka, neefumbire akamere ako, nze n’omwana wange tukalye, memale tumale tufe endhala.”
13Agho Eliya yaamukoba ati: “Otatya. Ja okole nga bw’okobye. Aye sooka onfumbireku akamere okandeetere, memale weefumbire iwe n’omwana wo 14kuba Musengwa Katonda, Katonda wa Isiraeli akoba ati, ‘Obuwunga obw’engaano mu kaibo ako tibuja kuwaagho, n’akadoome ak’omuzigo tikaja kuwaamu, okutuusa ng’olunaku Musengwa Katonda lw’anaagwisa amaadhi ku nsi lutuuse.’ ”
15Omukazi yaaja yaakola nga Eliya bwe yamukoba. Agho omukazi oyo, n’Eliya, ghalala n’ab’endhu y’omukazi oyo, baaba n’emere ey’okulya, okumala enaku kamaala. 16Obuwunga obw’engaano tibwawa mu kaibo, n’akadoome tikaawaamu muzigo, nga Musengwa Katonda bwe yakoba ng’abita mu Eliya. 17Nga ghabiseeghooku entangama, omwana w’omukazi oyo mwene ndhu, yaalwala. Obulwaire bwamutaamirira, yaawaamu n’akagheera. 18Agho omukazi yaakoba Eliya ati: “Ondiku nzigu yaaki, iwe omuntu wa Katonda? Waidha ghano kwidhusa Katonda bibi byange, na kwitisa mwana wange?” 17:18: Mat 8:29; Mar 1:24; Yoa 2:4
19Eliya yaamukoba ati: “Leeta omwana wo.” Agho yaamumutoola mu kifuba, yaamubbeeda yaamutwala mu kisenge ekya ghaigulu mu kalina, mwene ye yasulanga, era yaamulambaaza ku buliri bwe bwene. 20Yeeghemba Musengwa Katonda ng’akoba ati: “Wo Musengwa Katonda wange, obwo otuusiisa akabi ni ku namwandu ono ansuza, waita omwana we?” 21Agho yeegololera ku mwana emikuzi esatu, yeeghemba Musengwa Katonda ng’akoba ati: “Wo Musengwa Katonda wange, ganha omwana ono airemu obulamu.” 22Musengwa Katonda yaikiriza Eliya kye yamusaba, omwana yaira engulu, yaalamuka.
23Agho Eliya yaagema omwana yaamutoola mu kisenge ekya ghaigulu mu kalina, yaamutwala yaamugha inhina, ng’akoba ati: “Omwana wo wuuno mulamu.”
24Agho omukazi yaakoba Eliya ati: “Mpegaano mmanhiire irala ng’oli muntu wa Katonda, era nga bwenebwene Musengwa Katonda ky’ayogera ng’abita mu iwe kiba kya mazima.”
