1Elijah the Tishbite, who was from Tishbe in Gilead, said to Ahab, “As the LORD God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, there will be no dew or rain these years, except according to my word.”2The word of the LORD came to him, saying,3Go from here and turn eastward and hide yourself by the Brook Cherith, which faces the Jordan.4You will drink from the stream, and I have commanded the ravens to sustain you there.5So he went and did according to the word of the LORD, and he went and dwelt by the Wadi Kerith, which faces the Jordan.6The ravens brought him bread of the Presence and flesh in the morning, and bread of the Presence and flesh in the evening, and he drank from the stream.
