And Elijah
the Tishbite,
who was of the inhabitants
of Gilead,
said
unto Ahab,
As the LORD
God
of Israel
liveth,
before
whom I stand,
there shall not be dew
nor rain
these years,
but according
to my word.

And the word
of the LORD
came unto him, saying,
Get
thee hence, and turn
thee eastward,
and hide
thyself by the brook
Cherith,
that is before
Jordan.
And it shall be, that thou shalt drink
of the brook;
and I have commanded
the ravens
to feed
thee there.
So he went
and did
according unto the word
of the LORD:
for he went
and dwelt
by the brook
Cherith,
that is before
Jordan.
And the ravens
brought
him bread
and flesh
in the morning,
and bread
and flesh
in the evening;
and he drank
of the brook.
And it came to pass after
a while,
that the brook
dried up,
because there had been no rain
in the land.
And the word
of the LORD
came unto him, saying,
Arise,
get
thee to Zarephath,
which belongeth to Zidon,
and dwell
there: behold, I have commanded
a widow
woman
there to sustain
thee.
So he arose
and went
to Zarephath.
And when he came
to the gate
of the city,
behold, the widow
woman
was there gathering
of sticks:
and he called
to her, and said,
Fetch
me, I pray thee, a little
water
in a vessel,
that I may drink.

And as she was going
to fetch
it, he called
to her, and said,
Bring
me, I pray thee, a morsel
of bread
in thine hand.
And she said,
As the LORD
thy God
liveth,
I have
not a cake,
but an handful
of meal
in a barrel,
and a little
oil
in a cruse:
and, behold, I am gathering
two
sticks,
that I may go in
and dress
it for me and my son,
that we may eat
it, and die.

And Elijah
said
unto her, Fear
not; go
and do
as thou hast said:
but make
me thereof
a little

first,
and bring
it unto me, and after
make
for thee and for thy son.

And she went
and did
according to the saying

and she, and he, and her house,
did eat
many days.
And the barrel

not, neither did the cruse

fail,
according to the word

And it came to pass after

And she said
unto Elijah,
What have I to do with thee, O thou man
of God?
art thou come
unto me to call
my sin

my son?

unto her, Give

And he stretched
himself upon the child

and cried
unto the LORD,
and said,
O LORD

I pray thee, let this child's

come
into him
again.

And the LORD
heard
the voice
of Elijah;
and the soul
of the child
came
into him
again,
and he revived.
And Elijah
took
the child,
and brought him down
out of the chamber
into the house,
and delivered
him unto his mother:
and Elijah
said,
See,
thy son
liveth.
And the woman
said
to Elijah,
Now by this
I know
that thou art a man
of God,
and that the word
of the LORD
in thy mouth
is truth.
