Yehova atera inkunga Eliya

Yezebeli yumvise ibyari byabaye ku bahanuzi ba Bayali, ararakara cyane. Yatumye kuri Eliya ati: “Ejo uzicwa nk’uko nawe wishe abahanuzi ba Bayali.” Eliya yagize ubwoba bwinshi ahungira mu butayu. Yarasenze ati: “Yehova, singishoboye kwihangana. Reka nipfire birangire.” Eliya yaryamye munsi y’igiti arasinzira, kuko yari ananiwe cyane.

Umumarayika yaramukanguye, amubwirana ubugwaneza ati: “Byuka urye.” Eliya yahise abona umugati ku mabuye ashyushye hamwe n’amazi yo kunywa. Yarariye, aranywa maze arongera arasinzira. Umumarayika yarongeye aramubyutsa, aramubwira ati: “Byuka urye ubone imbaraga zo gukomeza urugendo.” Eliya yarongeye ararya, maze agenda iminsi 40 n’amajoro 40, agera ku Musozi wa Horebu. Ahageze, yagiye kuryama mu buvumo. Ariko Yehova yaramuvugishije, aramubaza ati “Eliya we, urakora iki aha?” Eliya yaramusubije ati: “Abisirayeli bishe isezerano mwagiranye. Basenye ibicaniro byawe, bica n’abahanuzi bawe. None nanjye barashaka kunyica.”

Yehova yaramubwiye ati: “Genda uhagarare ku musozi.” Habanje kuza umuyaga mwinshi unyura ku buvumo yarimo. Hakurikiyeho umutingito, hanyuma hakurikiraho umuriro. Birangiye, Eliya yumvise ijwi rituje nuko yitwikira umwenda we mu maso, ahagarara hanze y’ubuvumo. Yehova yamubajije impamvu yari yahunze. Eliya yaravuze ati: “Nsingaye njyenyine.” Ariko Yehova yaramubwiye ati: “Nturi wenyine. Muri Isirayeli haracyari abantu 7.000 bansenga. Genda ushyireho Elisa abe umuhanuzi mu mwanya wawe.” Eliya yahise ajya gukora ibyo Yehova amubwiye. Ese utekereza ko nawe Yehova azagufasha nukora ibyo ashaka? Azagufasha rwose! Reka turebe ikintu cyabaye muri cya gihe imvura yari yaranze kugwa hakaba inzara.
