3Ha Elia a bona taba di le mosenekeng, a ema, a baleha hore a tle a pholohe, a ba a ya fihla Beeresheba e naheng ya Juda, mme a siya mohlanka wa hae hona moo.

4Elia yena a qeta letsatsi a ntse a tsamaya hara lehwatata. A fihla a dula tlasa sehlahla sa tshinabele, a ikopela hore a shwe, a re: “Ho lekane! Oho, Morena, nka moya wa ka jwale, hobane ha ke fete bo-ntate ka letho!”

5Ha a ntse a paqame, a kgalehile katlasa sehlahla sa tshinabele, lengeloi la mo sisinya, la re ho yena: “Tsoha, o je!” 6Ha a tadima, a bona senkgwa se besitsweng mollong wa mashala, pela hlooho ya hae ho ena le lekuka la metsi. Yaba o a ja, o a nwa, a nto kgaleha hape.

7Lengeloi la Morena la boela la tla kgetlo la bobedi, la mo sisinya, la re: “Tsoha, o je, ho seng jwalo leeto lena le tla o imela.” 8Yaba o a tsoha, o a ja, o a nwa. Dijo tseo tsa mo matlafatsa, mme a tsamaya matsatsi a mashome a mane, le masiu a mashome a mane, a ba a ya fihla Horebe, thabeng ya Modimo.

BAHEBERU 4:14-16SSO89SOBula ka mmadi wa Bibele

The Scriptures acknowledge that we can sometimes reach the end of our strength and want to give up, like Elijah the prophet did when the evil Queen Jezebel let him know that she intended to have him killed. In times like those, we can be sure that God understands and that he will have mercy on us and renew our strength.
