    5So he went and did according to the word of the LORD: for he went and lived by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.

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

    7And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.

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

    9Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow there to sustain you.

    10So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow was there gathering sticks: and he called to her, and said, Please, bring me a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.

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

    12And she said, As the LORD your God lives, I do not have a cake, but only a handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a jar: and behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and prepare it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.

    13And Elijah said to her, Fear not; go and do as you have said: but make a little cake for me first, and bring it to me, and afterward, make some for you and your son.

    14For thus says the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, nor shall the jar of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sends rain upon the earth.

    15And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her household, ate many days.

    16And the barrel of meal did not waste, nor did the jar of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which He spoke by Elijah.
