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

    6 The ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.

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

    8 The word of Yahweh came to him, saying,

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

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

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

    12 She said, "As Yahweh your God lives, I don't have a cake, but a handful of meal in the jar, and a little oil in the jar. Behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and bake it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die."

    13 Elijah said to her, "Don't be afraid. Go and do as you have said; but make me of it a little cake first, and bring it out to me, and afterward make some for you and for your son.

    14 For thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, 'The jar of meal shall not empty, neither shall the jar of oil fail, until the day that Yahweh sends rain on the earth.'"

    15 She went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, ate [many] days.

    16 The jar of meal didn't empty, neither did the jar of oil fail, according to the word of Yahweh, which he spoke by Elijah.
