First Kings 17:3-11

³“Leave from here and go eastward; hide yourself by the brook Kerith, east of the Jordan.

⁴It will happen that you will drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.”

⁵So Elijah went and did as the word of Yahweh commanded. He went to live by the brook Kerith, 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.

⁸The word of Yahweh came to him, saying,

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

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

¹¹As she was going to get water he called to her, and said, “Please bring me a piece of bread in your hand.”
