11:017:006 And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and
           bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.

11:017:007 And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up,
           because there had been no rain in the land.

11:017:008 And the word of the lord came unto him, saying,

11:017:009 Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and
           dwell there:  behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to
           sustain thee.

11:017:010 So he arose and went to Zarephath.  And when he came to the
           gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering
           of sticks:  and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray
           thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.

11:017:011 And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said,
           Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.

11:017:012 And she said, As the lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake,
           but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a
           cruse:  and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go
           in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and
           die.

11:017:013 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast
           said:  but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it
           unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.

11:017:014 For thus saith the lord God of Israel, The barrel of meal
           shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until
           the day that the lord sendeth rain upon the earth.

11:017:015 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah:  and
           she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.

11:017:016 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of
           oil fail, according to the word of the lord, which he spake by
           Elijah.

11:017:017 And it came to pass after these things, that the son of the
           woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness
           was so sore, that there was no breath left in him.

11:017:018 And she said unto Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O thou
           man of God? art thou come unto me to call my sin to
           remembrance, and to slay my son?

11:017:019 And he said unto her, Give me thy son.  And he took him out of
           her bosom, and carried him up into a loft, where he abode, and
           laid him upon his own bed.

11:017:020 And he cried unto the lord, and said, O lord my God, hast thou
           also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by
           slaying her son?

11:017:021 And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried
           unto the lord, and said, O lord my God, I pray thee, let this
           child’s soul come into him again.
