Elijah

Suka tambaye shi, suka ce, “Don me malaman dokoki suke cewa, sai Iliya ya fara zuwa?”

Yesu ya amsa ya ce, “Gaskiya ne, Iliya zai zo da fari, yă kuma mayar da dukan abubuwa. Don me kuma aka rubuta cewa, dole Ɗan Mutum yă sha wahala sosai, kuma a ƙi shi?

Amma ina faɗa muku, Iliya ya riga ya zo, kuma suka yi duk abin da suka ga dama da shi, kamar yadda aka rubuta game da shi.”

Da waɗansu cikin waɗanda suke tsattsaye kusa da wurin suka ji haka, suka ce, “Ku saurara, yana kiran Iliya.”

Wani mutum ya ruga ya je ya jiƙo soso da ruwan tsami, ya soka a sanda ya miƙa wa Yesu yă sha. Ya ce, “Ku ƙyale shi. Bari mu ga ko Iliya zai zo yă saukar da shi.”

Zai sha gaban Ubangiji, a ruhu da kuma iko irin na Iliya, domin yă juye zukatan iyaye ga ’ya’yansu, marasa biyayya kuma ga zama masu biyayya don yă kintsa mutane su zama shiryayyu domin Ubangiji.”

Ina tabbatar muku a zamanin Iliya, akwai gwauraye da yawa a Isra’ila, sa’ad da aka rufe sararin sama har shekara uku da rabi, aka kuma yi yunwa mai tsanani ko’ina a ƙasar.

Duk da haka, ba a aiki Iliya ga ko ɗaya a cikinsu ba. Sai dai zuwa ga wata gwauruwa da take a Zarefat, a yankin Sidon.

waɗansu kuma suna cewa, annabi Iliya ne ya sāke bayyana. Waɗansu kuma har wa yau, suna cewa, ɗaya daga cikin annabawa na dā ne, ya tashi.

Suka amsa, suka ce, “Waɗansu suna cewa, Yohanna Mai Baftisma, waɗansu kuma annabi Iliya, har wa yau waɗansu suna cewa, kai ɗaya daga cikin annabawan da ne, da ya tashi da rai.”

Sai ga mutum biyu, Musa da Iliya, suka bayyana cikin kyakkyawar daraja, suna magana da Yesu.

Da mutanen na barin Yesu, sai Bitrus ya ce masa, “Ubangiji, ya yi kyau da muke nan. Bari mu kafa bukkoki guda uku, wato, ɗaya dominka, ɗaya domin Musa, ɗaya kuma domin Iliya.” (Bai ma san abin da yake faɗi ba.)

Da almajiransa, Yaƙub da Yohanna suka ga haka, sai suka yi tambaya suka ce, “Ubangiji, kana so mu kira wuta ta sauka daga sama ta hallaka su?”

Sai suka tambaye shi suka ce, “To, wane ne kai? Kai ne Iliya?” Ya ce, “A’a, ni ba shi ba ne.” “Kai ne Annabin nan?” Ya amsa ya ce, “A’a.”

suka tambaye shi suka ce, “Don me kake yin baftisma in kai ba Kiristi ba ne, ba kuwa Iliya ba, ba kuma annabin nan ba?”

Allah bai ƙi mutanensa da ya rigya sani ba. Ba ku san abin da Nassi ya faɗa game da Iliya ba, yadda ya kawo kuka ga Allah a kan Isra’ila ya ce,

Iliya mutum ne kamar mu. Ya yi addu’a da gaske don kada a yi ruwan sama, ba a kuma yi ruwan sama a ƙasar ba har shekaru uku da rabi.
