    4"You shall drink from the brook, and I have commanded ravens to provide for you there."

    5So he went and did as the word of the LORD directed him. He went and stayed by the Brook Cherith, which is east of the Jordan.

    6The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook.

    7But after a while, the brook dried up because there was no rain in the land.

    8Then the word of the LORD came to him, saying,

    9"Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and stay there. Look, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you."

    10So he arose and went to Zarephath. When he reached the city gate, a widow was there gathering sticks. He called to her and said, "Please bring me a little water in a vessel so I may drink."

    11As she was going to fetch it, he called to her and said, "Please bring me a piece of bread in your hand as well."

    12But she replied, "As the LORD your God lives, I have nothing baked. I only have a handful of flour in a jar and a little oil in a jug. I am gathering a couple of sticks to go and prepare it for myself and my son so we may eat it and then die."

    13Elijah said to her, "Do not be afraid. Go and do as you have said, but first make a small cake for me from what you have and bring it to me. Then make some for yourself and your son."

    14For this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'The jar of flour will not run out, and the jug of oil will not run dry until the day the LORD sends rain upon the earth.'

    15She went and did according to what Elijah said, and she, Elijah, and her household ate for many days.

    2Elisha said to her, "What can I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?" She replied, "Your servant has nothing in the house except a small jar of oil."

    3Then he said, "Go, borrow empty vessels from all your neighbors. Get as many as you can. Do not gather too few."

    4Then go inside and shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all these vessels, and as each one is filled, set it aside."

    5So she left him, shut the door behind her and her sons, and they kept bringing vessels to her while she poured the oil.

    6When all the vessels were full, she said to her son, "Bring me another vessel." But he replied, "There are no more vessels." Then the oil stopped flowing.

    7She went and told the man of God, and he said, "Go, sell the oil and pay your debt. You and your sons can live on what is left."
