17:2 And the word [H1697] of the LORD [H3068] came unto him, saying [H559] ,
17:3 Get [H3212] thee hence, and turn [H6437] thee eastward [H6924] , and hide [H5641] thyself by the brook [H5158] Cherith [H3747] , that [is] before [H6440] Jordan [H3383] .
17:4 And it shall be, [that] thou shalt drink [H8354] of the brook [H5158] ; and I have commanded [H6680] the ravens [H6158] to feed [H3557] thee there.
17:5 So he went [H3212] and did [H6213] according unto the word [H1697] of the LORD [H3068] : for he went [H3212] and dwelt [H3427] by the brook [H5158] Cherith [H3747] , that [is] before [H6440] Jordan [H3383] .

17:10 So he arose [H6965] and went [H3212] to Zarephath [H6886] . And when he came [H935] to the gate [H6607] of the city [H5892] , behold, the widow [H490] woman [H802] [was] there gathering [H7197] of sticks [H6086] : and he called [H7121] to her, and said [H559] , Fetch [H3947] me, I pray thee, a little [H4592] water [H4325] in a vessel [H3627] , that I may drink [H8354] .
17:11 And as she was going [H3212] to fetch [H3947] [it], he called [H7121] to her, and said [H559] , Bring [H3947] me, I pray thee, a morsel [H6595] of bread [H3899] in thine hand [H3027] .
17:12 And she said [H559] , [As] the LORD [H3068] thy God [H430] liveth [H2416] , I have [H3426] not a cake [H4580] , but an handful [H4393] [H3709] of meal [H7058] in a barrel [H3537] , and a little [H4592] oil [H8081] in a cruse [H6835] : and, behold, I [am] gathering [H7197] two [H8147] sticks [H6086] , that I may go in [H935] and dress [H6213] it for me and my son [H1121] , that we may eat [H398] it, and die [H4191] .
17:13 And Elijah [H452] said [H559] unto her, Fear [H3372] not; go [H935] [and] do [H6213] as thou hast said [H1697] : but make [H6213] me thereof [H8033] a little [H6996] cake [H5692] first [H7223] , and bring [H3318] [it] unto me, and after [H314] make [H6213] for thee and for thy son [H1121] .
17:14 For thus saith [H559] the LORD [H3068] God [H430] of Israel [H3478] , The barrel [H3537] of meal [H7058] shall not waste [H3615] , neither shall the cruse [H6835] of oil [H8081] fail [H2637] , until the day [H3117] [that] the LORD [H3068] sendeth [H5414] rain [H1653] upon [H6440] the earth [H127] .(sendeth: Heb. giveth)
17:15 And she went [H3212] and did [H6213] according to the saying [H1697] of Elijah [H452] : and she, and he, and her house [H1004] , did eat [H398] [many] days [H3117] .(many: or, a full year)
17:16 [And] the barrel [H3537] of meal [H7058] wasted [H3615] not, neither did the cruse [H6835] of oil [H8081] fail [H2638] , according to the word [H1697] of the LORD [H3068] , which he spake [H1696] by [H3027] Elijah [H452] .(by: Heb. by the hand of)

17:18 And she said [H559] unto Elijah [H452] , What have I to do with thee, O thou man [H376] of God [H430] ? art thou come [H935] unto me to call [H2142] my sin [H5771] to remembrance [H2142] , and to slay [H4191] my son [H1121] ?
17:19 And he said [H559] unto her, Give [H5414] me thy son [H1121] . And he took [H3947] him out of her bosom [H2436] , and carried him up [H5927] into a loft [H5944] , where he abode [H3427] , and laid [H7901] him upon his own bed [H4296] .
17:20 And he cried [H7121] unto the LORD [H3068] , and said [H559] , O LORD [H3068] my God [H430] , hast thou also brought evil [H7489] upon the widow [H490] with whom I sojourn [H1481] , by slaying [H4191] her son [H1121] ?
17:21 And he stretched [H4058] himself upon the child [H3206] three [H7969] times [H6471] , and cried [H7121] unto the LORD [H3068] , and said [H559] , O LORD [H3068] my God [H430] , I pray thee, let this child's [H3206] soul [H5315] come [H7725] into him [H7130] again [H7725] .(stretched: Heb. measured)(into: Heb. into his inward parts)
17:22 And the LORD [H3068] heard [H8085] the voice [H6963] of Elijah [H452] ; and the soul [H5315] of the child [H3206] came [H7725] into him [H7130] again [H7725] , and he revived [H2421] .
17:23 And Elijah [H452] took [H3947] the child [H3206] , and brought him down [H3381] out of the chamber [H5944] into the house [H1004] , and delivered [H5414] him unto his mother [H517] : and Elijah [H452] said [H559] , See [H7200] , thy son [H1121] liveth [H2416] .
17:24 And the woman [H802] said [H559] to Elijah [H452] , Now by this [H2088] I know [H3045] that thou [art] a man [H376] of God [H430] , [and] that the word [H1697] of the LORD [H3068] in thy mouth [H6310] [is] truth [H571] .
